Will Devin Funchess have his first 1000-yard receiving season?

I dont think its a coincidence that it was Olsen that had the big day instead of Funchess now that Greg is finally healthy. Greg's probably #1 target, Funchess is going to get less targets by simple virtue of Greg being on the field. 

Its alot more likely he'll get a couple of respectable games (50 yards 1 TD) instead of two 100 yard games.

I think the better question is .... will Brenton Bersin give us another 100 yard season? In seasons where BB had 100 yards or more.... we won the NFC South. 

Numbers dont lie.

In years that Brenton Bersin has at least 2 starts, this team goes to the Super Bowl 100% of the time.  

 

Bersin needs to start Week 16 and 17.

Agreed. I think it is more likely that we are basically out of the division race and locked into the 5 seed after this weekend. Yes, I know technically speaking NO has to play Tampa, but half their team will be on IR against us and then the other half will be against NO.

NO could be up on Tampa real early and seeing as how hard it will be trying to win on the road, we've got some guys who could use some rest.

If we win and the Saints win, week 17 doesn't matter, as far as I can tell, and we'll be resting players. Therefore, we would not get flexed, either.

Technically speaking, it does matter. We would both be 11-4, so NO losing in week 17 and us winning means we win the division.

That said, neither of us (NO included) will lose to Tampa. If we both win this week, we would need a miracle to get the division.

Roger that... I was already giving them the Bucs win. But you're right. 

However, if they chose to flex us vs ATL and NO wins at 1pm, they've got a real stinker at 8:30pm. 

NFL/NBC is not in a great position to have a meaningful game in primetime Week 17, based on the current outlook. They really one or more of the following in Week 16:

  • Panther loss and/or Falcon win this week
  • Jag loss/Titan win this week
  • Chief loss/Charger win
  • Buffalo win

Unfortunately, most of these are longshots. 

Even if Atlanta loses this week, they'd still hold the advantage over Dallas and Seattle, regardless of who wins that matchup in Week 16. 

If Buffalo wins at New England this week, Buffalo at Miami would be an interesting matchup in Week 17, because it creates a win or go home scenario for Buffalo. 

Jaguars losing on the road to San Fran and Tennessee beating the Rams in Nashville is probably the NFL's best hope for a really meaningful game. At that point, Jax at TN would be for the division, regardless of what happens anywhere else.

Its possible. This would be a much better question after we play the Tampa game and see how many yards left to go 

I could see him being used a lot this week since he was only targeted 4 times against GB, unless his shoulder hampers him. TB's secondary  should give up a ton of yards.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
