Play O the Day - Devin Funchess

call me crazy but I see Funchess as more of an AJ Green type receiver than Kelvin.

"While Kelvin is a prototype possession receiver that uses his body well to gain the upper hand, Devin is much more fluid and athletic in his routes and after the catch. Benjamin and Funchess compliment one another nicely, giving offensive coordinator Mike Shula a variety of skill sets to identify mismatches."  http://www.carolinahuddle.com/2016/08/04/carolina-panthers-devin-funchess/

I'll take AJ Green numbers for Funchess any day. I'm sure he would too. 6000+ yds. in his 1st 5 seasons and he missed 3 games in '14.

Give him the ball on crossing routes and let him run. This offense needs YAC and Funchess is the guy.

I actually think that is the missing link of the O....Olsen, KB and Funches are all big body possession guys.

Why I still endorse thanking Ted Jr and focusing on improving our speed WR position

Funny you say that because that was the exact thought that came to my mind. That video in Jeremy's post is very green-esque

long-lanky and watches the ball to his hands.

Even after our performance last year i really dont think the nfl knows whats about to hit them.

Seriously. How can any Panther fan not be excited about this team? I can easily see Cam's passing numbers go up this year. If anything goes down, it will be his rushing yardage and TD's, but that's only because he won't need to run as much.

    • Yep - honestly though, I thought his coverage was as good as you could possibly do on a man coverage crossing route with Dak having all day to throw. Dak made a perfect throw and if it wasn't in front of Pickens, it could have easily been picked off. Seemed like we ran more man than I have seen our defense run so far this year. Defense also did a great job of playing their gap/zone responsibilities (even if Dak did pick apart our zone a good chunk of the game) - that screen play on the last drive could easily have gone for a touchdown if Moehrig didn't play his zone and make a great tackle. Biggest complaint about Evero was not blitzing a few more times (especially when Dallas was in the red zone). The few times we did it, Dak didn't look comfortable.
    • There was some pretty egregious missed calls vs the Chiefs in the Lions game, especially Kelce. The completion where he clearly used the ground to catch the ball. The hold in front of the ref as Pacheco ran by where the defender was trying to turn around and couldnt because Kelce had him by the jersey. Mahomes openly taunting after scoring a TD. 0 penalties after double digit the week before. Cmon. 
    • People get trade happy and look at resources as barter items. They fail to see them as resources to be used to our benefit rather than someone else's. Right now, Chuba and Rico are massive benefits to us and a strong rushing attack so greatly benefits any passer, much less a young one like Bryce still is.  And the better our running game, the more our offense can eat up the clock, the less time our defense is on the field. And that is priceless, too. Don't mess with the running game. Don't mess with the receivers. Maybe look at our O-line and think we may have hit on something good during these injuries. Look at our D-line and seem some strength evolving there. Our secondary has its good spots and some that are still developing. Our linebacking corps did well this last outing. Our special teams are on a major upswing as of this past week. Heck, even our QB is showing us a little something right now that we can build on. Perhaps putting out a yard sale sign right now might be less advantageous than looking at the team and saying, "You are all part of something good that is happening. We want to see that continue to grow."
