Captain's Corner: Munnerlyn Goes Around Charlotte Asking People Panther Trivia Questions


Saca312

Recommended Posts

How knowledgeable is our fanbase when it comes to the Panthers? Captain Munnerlyn tests that out in the debut of his "Captain's Corner" as he goes around Charlotte testing Panther fans of their football knowledge. You may be surprised at some of their answers.

The stats support his stance. Funchess' 40% catch rate was literally dead last in the NFL last year among WRs with 50+ targets. Only 5 WRs with more than 10 targets had a worse catch rate.

Funchess may have potential, but his on field results thus far make him one of the worst WRs in the NFL.

It's why I'm absolutely baffled when poster mention his name among reasons why they feel good about our WR corps. I sincerely hope hat either Funchess makes a massive leap forward this year or the production of the newcomers leaves him buried on the bench.

Can someone bring up that article again to show how much seperation on average funchess and benjamin were getting last season? Something like 2 yrds or less iirc . This is a prove it or become Kony Ealy type year for Funchess . Benjamin is probably safe as long as he stays in shape hes got a 1000yrd season and close to another one in the two years he played.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
