[Video] Ted Ginn.. the forgotten WR

Didn't even show my favorite Ginn play from last year. The interception against arizona where he was the target and ran close to 100 yards to tackle Patrick Peterson. 110% hustle play. Saved a TD and we got a pick ourselves that next series.

I give him poo for his drops just as much as anyone, but I'll be damned if I don't love me some Ted Ginn. We haven't had a speed threat like him since Smitty in his prime.

I expect him to have another great season as a number 3 or 4 this year drawing coverage from safeties and linebackers.  He is going to feast on them after working as the number 1 and 2 in 2015. If his numbers go down it will only be due to fewer opportunities not lesser efficiency.

Even with the drops, I've grown to really appreciate Teddy. When he actually gets the ball, usually something good happens. I remember I wanted to kill him after that drop in the Colts game, but wanted to run out on the field and hug him after his TD against the cardinals.

I'm STILL mad about that dropped pass against the Colts. Ted had me FED UP that night, but I'm glad we still won the game. LOL!

I still got love for him tho.

We are deeper at WR than any other position on the team. It's going to be interesting to see which group makes the 53 man roster. Teddy should be in that group but you never know in this game.....with that said, none of the others have their name associated with a level of shear speed....there is fast, then there is TedGinnFAST.

I think with KB back and Funchess emerging as a true threat at WR, Ginn could possibly have an even better season than last year. Defenses are going to have double team either KB or Funchess just because of their size, this will leave Ginn with one on one coverage and we've see he can just burn dudes in this case.

I was looking for that play too!  The run he had for a TD against Arizona was a very close second (2:20 into the video). He zigzagged across the field like a drunk on a unicycle, and Cam was the only one that came close to tackling him. He definitely had something to prove against them.

For a little guy, he plays tough, his routes are good, and once he gets into the open, you ain't gonna catch him!

    • I'm not sure how much I'm changing mid year, especially when we are seeing some success.    Most Pass Rushers are physically gifted. Scheme and personnel help, but you gotta have the Jimmys and Joes, especially at that position.    We will likely lose games when the other team can throw for 400 yards, and has multiple high level receivers, but I think at this point in the development of our franchise, we have to be ok with that. You can't address every single issue at once. Really looks like we have plugged some holes on offense, and definitely in run defense. In the next draft, if we hit on a CB, an ILB and a Pass rusher, we will be pretty dangerous.
    • No, stay the course, add via FA / Draft.
    • His route running was not very good in this game, especially when compared to the previous week. There were at least three playactions ran where I couldn't tell if he was going to be pass blocking or running a route with how little effort he ran with. They also dinged him for the fumble on the play where XL lateraled to him. 29.8 fumble grade, 6.1 pass block grade, and 40.0 receiving grade really hurt his overall score. Personally, I'd have put him in the mid-to-high 70s on the day. I don't think his receiving grade should've been 40.0 but can see an argument for in the 50s. Maybe his pass blocking grade could've also been in the teens since he did win on the final rep handily.   Just re-watched the receiving TD for Rico and it was a hideous route. DaRon Bland left his zone to cover over top of TMac though which left the area wide open for Rico to get to. Very surprised that they gave Bland a 66.5 coverage grade as I recall him getting picked on a couple of times (and giving up the 4th down throw to Renfrow by giving an incredibly soft cushion).
