Next Gen stats: Ted Ginn emerging as playmaker


TN05

Recommended Posts

Interesting video/article from NFL.com. They clocked Ted Ginn at 22.4 MPH on his 74 yard TD - he was matched up against Robert Alford, a corner who himself leads the league in ball-carrier speed (clocked in at 22.6 MPH in week 6 on a pick). 72% of his catches yards, and touchdowns are coming lined up on the left side of the field, where teams usually place their second cornerback. 

This proves why Ted Ginn is so dangerous. He's not a number one receiver, but odds are he is going to outrun your corner. Unless you put safety help over him or double team him, he will get open. Even if he's only catching half of them, that's still more than most NFL deep threats, and he's faster than all of them. Ted Ginn has opened up our offense so much, even when he's not producing. Great signing by Gettleman.

chances are he'll break 10 by the end of the season. i had him pegged as a 4-TD threat tops at the beginning of the season.

Dude would have at least 13 if not for the dropsies... then we'd be discussing Ted Ginn having a near-20 TD season. Friggin' incredible.

Grammar grannies...boo! My auto-correct kills half of my posts. Hate it. 

Yep..TedIII has left a good amount of points left on the field...but at 13-0, maybe he's just saving the up for the playoffs?!

i think a lot of Ginn's credit has to go to Cam and the OLine being able to protect Cam until Ginn gets separation.

The combination of Ginns speed, our offensive line giving Cam the time to let those deep routes develop, and Cam getting much better at putting some air under his deep balls has added up to exactly the kind of deep threat that this offense has needed the last few years.  Hope it continues.

Bucky brooks amuses me .. says Arizona is a much better team than Carolina on scout vs scout.

And then after ginn torches atlantas defense he starts digging and puts out this tweet ..

Defenders facing @Panthers should pay attention to where Ginn lines up.. 6 of his 8 TDs have occurred when he lines up outside on the left.

Seems like a good time to bring up the brilliant prognostication of Adam Schein, who picked us to finish 6-10 and 3rd in the division behind the Saints and Falcons. Not only did he trash our receivers, failing to even ID our #1 WR, but it seems our OL sucks as well. Makes you wonder how we ever got to 13-0 with no weapons or protection for our QB.

"Honestly, I didn't think Carolina had enough at receiver before the Benjamin injury. Now? Devin Funchess is the current No. 1, and that's not fair to the second-round pick. He just doesn't appear to be as physical or NFL-ready as Benjamin was entering last season. And the rest of the Panthers' receiver depth chart looks like a witness protection program. Jerricho Cotchery? Ted Ginn Jr.? Philly Brown? Brenton Bersin? Who??

And beyond center Ryan Kalil, the offensive line remains a major area of concern in Carolina. Who's going to protect the $100 million investment?"

At the top of my Christmas wish list? More throws to that punt return guy. What's his name? Fred Jin or something?

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
