Funchess

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

He may turn it around but he has been uninspiring in his play. I mean Marcus Lucas showed more promise...but he was undrafted.

He gets open.

[pantherfan49]

He stared with 4 straight drops, all of which were catchable. It seems like he has problems when catches are contested. He made a ridiculously good grab when no one was on him.

One of those drops was flat out a bad pass by Cam.  Only Olsen would have made that catch on this team and even then it was probably a 50-50 ball.

Funchess finished strong.

Hopefully this was his breakthrough game.

He got open and Cam kept going back at him. That is what I love about Cam and this team. Dropsies with Philly and with Funchess. So what happens? We keep going back at them. Philly hasn't had a drop all year I think. And Funchess comes up big with a few big catches. We don't give up on our players. We don't give up on our team. #KeepPounding

It is great to hear so many of you see the same thing I do. He's gonna be a real asset in the future, and cam and the team keeping faith in him is the great positive about this team, I think. Nothing but good coming, guys!!!!

I suspect he's been having a confidence issue.  Hopefully his two big grabs today help him get over it since he is clearly capable of getting open.

[Lords0fPain]

He did not look awesome, he looked lost... until he didn't and started catching the ball...

he did bounce back and when the pressure was at its highest. although, it may not have been that much pressure, had he only caught the earlier ones. but, coming back like (and when he did) that, gives me hope....

[MCC]

One good sign even when he wasn't catching the ball: he was getting separation and getting open in the middle of the defense. 

If that 4th qtr can give him some much needed confidence, maybe he cab develop faster.

Hats off to the coaches for keeping him in. I would have yanked him at halftime. 

Hence, I have withdrawn my Panthers head coach job application.

Did anyone notice that on the 1 receiver sets the majority of the time he was the lone receiver out wide? I was waiting all day for them to throw a fade and let him go get it. Either way, he dropped some passes he should have caught. Needs to clean that up. However, he looked liked a mountain when he was lined up against some of those CBs. Hopefully the light clicks for him soon. 

[CLG]

It's encouraging that he is being targeted when he is in the game. Today it started to feel like Olsen was our only receiver. Fix some of the mental drops.. build more chemistry with Cam.. and take advantage of the reps he's given. This offense could benefit from having him on the field more often. 

[Carolina Cajun]

I'll eat my crow, I all but buried him on his last drop, but he came back and was stellar at the end of the game.  I pray that's a sign of things to come.

[shreddingdefense]

I had to work and miissed the game. so for anyone out there, how many snaps did funchess have and why were they more than the past few weeks? i assume he didn't start of corey/ted giinn
