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.

    • They're examples of denying reality. Here are some others: ,- Bryce is the worst QB in the NFL right now (no he isn't) - Bryce is the worst QB in NFL history (no he's not; that's stupid) - Well then Bryce is at least the the worst QB in the league over the last three years (nope, he's actually improved a lot since year one, which was a turbulent year anyway) - That's not true, he hasn't Improved one but since his rookie year (oh come on) 🙄 - Well, even if he did, we can't win with him (obviously we can) - Yeah but not unless everyone else is damn near perfect (think the game film from our wins this year would back that up?) - Even so, we won those games in spite of him (officially the stupidest argument available) And no, those are made up. You can find those quotes and other equally moronic statements in various threads around the board. I know some folks always need to characterize whatever they're against as the worst thing in existence. It's hyperbole, and it's hypersilly. Likewise, you've got some who are so absolutely emotional about it that even if you think Bryce isn't good enough (which I do) they'll still call you a stan if you don't agree to label him the lousiest passer in existence 🙄 It's just dumb, and it's not realistic. But on the flipside, here are some statements which are; - Bryce is indeed capable of both playing in, and winning, an NFL game. Not on a consistent level though, and consistency is huge. - He is also capable of completing mid-range and even some deep passes; hell, he threw a beauty this past Sunday  - Yes, he has improved over his rookie season and over last year. Arguing against that is disingenuous. - Believe it or not, other players are the roster do make mistakes in games also.  - And lastly, while I know it hurts some people's narrative and arguments, Bryce does indeed deserve credit for the winning games he's played in this season. ... Every single one of those statements is true. And since i acknowledge all that, I must be in favor of keeping him in place then Except I'm not 😕 ... Don't know of anyone who doesn't think he'll get the fifth year option. Not ready to guarantee anything beyond that, though. So bottom line: Yeah, Bryce is fully expected to be our quarterback through next year. If there were a logical, realistic path to acquire a more capable starter and transition Bryce to a backup I'd be elated, but that's a pipe dream. This where we're at  I don't **** it, you don't like it, others don't either. But here We are so let's make the best of it that we can.
    • What does it matter how fast the wrs are with Bryce he is not hitting them anyway
    • Let's be real. Signing Matt Kalil who was at the time inconsistent at best was always an extremely risky move and largely initiated by the fact he was related to one of our most prominent players Ryan Kalil. Memories get fuzzy the longer time passes I guess. Go watch some old Panthers games with Ted Ginn nearly losing us games. Then watch Cam Newton keep going back to him again and again and again. Then read all the Xavier Legette criticism while making excuses for Bryce being swept by rookie 2nd round pick Tyler Shough. Throwing TMac under the bus is just further proof how deranged the Bryce Young defense force has become. Bryce Young can barely compete in this gutter iteration of the NFC South. Let's see him take this WR core to the playoffs in an NFC South with Drew Brees and Matt Ryan
