Isn't that what they said about Carson Palmer and Arizona? Also Reggie Bush with Brees would be unstoppable....

Not as a slot receiver, they have that.  As a deep threat bc Drew is pinpoint accurate on those intermediate deep balls and will let it go every time.

Guys... its just Ted Ginn.  I'm not denying he had value to the team but come on... its Ted Ginn.  He can be replaced just as easily as we found him.  There is a reason he doesn't do anything for other teams.  Hell, if we actually had a sophisticated passing game that wasn't just chuck it down field every play, Ginn wouldn't have mattered nearly as much.

I wish we could have kept him but it probably wasn't worth it.

Proof? You're treading mighty thin ice with your claims here, pal.

Jonathan Stewart 2016 - 824 rushing yards, 3.8 yards per carry, 63.4 yards per game

 

Cam Newton 2015 - 636 rushing yards, 4.8 yards per carry, 39.8 yards per game

Cam Newton 2016 - 359 rushing yards, 4.0 yards per carry, 23.9 yards per game

What the fug is this proof of? A worse oline would have nothing to do with this now would it....

He's not going to have the impact you are thinking. He will be lucky to put up half of what Cooks did for NO.

Agreed. The fact that Ginn was for the most part the best WR we had speaks higher about the FO's approach to the WR position than Ginn himself.

By the way... worse?  Injuries?

Jonathan Stewart averaged more rushing yards in his last 6 games in 2016 when the OL was "worse" and "injured" than he did in his first 7 when they were "healthy".

In other words, the cause of last years rushing yards going down from the previous year had nothing to do with a "worse" OL.  It had to do with defenses adjusting (because they understood that they didn't have a single thing to fear from the Carolina WR) and Moron Mike Shula *not* adjusting.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
