You can STFU about Funchess now

Recommended Posts

Funchess is showing marked growth this year, and not bad route running for a big 6'4" guy. He seems to be using that big frame to his advantage with regularity this season.

Who knew that a 23 year old receiver would show growth in year three? fuging amazing! Yes, let that sarcasm soak into the lining of your dome.

Funchess shows a lot of promise, and may actually be a matchup nightmare, especially with KB on the field.  See what can be when he's actually targeted in the passing game!

@Saca Funchess is better than KB. Actually, KB is just overrated and was never really that much better in the first place.

Why do you guys want to pit then against each other so badly?

Clearly we need both playing well. Because both are, and guess what, we're up big on the road against the defending champs, and that's with Olsen out too.

Be happy for them, and our team. Geez.

Some of y'all sneered. I'm not! And jinxes don't exist. You motherfugers believe in a fat man that fly's a sleigh with magical reindeer and wears a bright ass red suit too?

A man who does not live his life based on superstitions...I like that.

So are you for or against overreacting?  I can't quite tell.  

There is no overreaction. People were told that Funchess was raw when drafted, is still young, was getting open, and that it would be counterproductive to give up on him so early. Well, I think that he has pretty much proven the naysayers wrong this season, and today is a prime example.

    • Seriously? A CB who missed all that time on his rookie deal and was also a top 10 pick when the guys picked right before and after have been studs. A RB our GMs tried to replace with FAs and 2nd rounders and two backup level players is one of the best drafts we’ve ever had? I’d argue that the 2011/2012 drafts were better even with just Cam and Luke/Norman. Here’s the drafts I think were better: 2017, maybe 2018, 2015, 2013, 2011, 2012, 2008, 2007, 2001, 2002 (just Pepp) I’m hoping 2025 is way better as well. Honestly, we’ve kind of sucked at drafting overall and that’s the only reason you can even remotely call Horn, Hubbard, Tremble and BC a good draft let alone one of our best ever. Good teams that draft well would laugh at that as a great draft. If you want to look at say the 2023 Lions draft, you’d get 4 stud/above average/average starters not just 3 replaceable starters/backups and a top 10 pick that missed half his games. That’s a draft that helps turn a team into a playoff team. Our record since our 2021 draft is 19-49. A best ever draft doesn’t go 19-49.
    • I remember when football was great.    Wasn't this century.  
    • Bingo. You can't pay that type of player elite franchise QB money. That average starter type player can excel when he's surrounded by top shelf talent in a great offensive system but pay him elite QB money and you're going to really struggle to surround him with the type of talent you need to carry him. You pay those elite franchise QBs because they can carry your roster. You can't pay guys who have to be carried. Bryce showed glimpses down the stretch last year. I really hope he keeps building on that. But before we back up the Brinks truck he needs to show that he's the type of QB who can lift up and carry the offense because when you pay those guys that's what they're gonna have to do.
