Best Drop Rates for Receivers last year


Recommended Posts

Kida hard to drop rhe ball when you dont even fight/go for it

 

Kid did really improve though last year and finally showing he can be a darn good #2 WR

 

 

Sadly we couldnt brag about the others and drop rate.  Its was sad last year watching those guys.  And that New Orleans playoff game last year was possibly the saddest performance by a group of WR ive ever seen.  Kalil was a turnstile but we still got the ball off and Cam still put it in the breadbasket including in the endzone.  Yet we still dropped them and barely lost.  People like to remember Kalil getting beat on that last play, but not the wide open drops where only Cam handing it to them wouldve made it easier.

When you have injuries and you need to play guys like Clay you will obviously have a drop off . When you can keep it to 5 points on the road against the Saints you have to be optimistic about having a much more experienced OC and a much deeper WR grouip.

When you consider that was probably the worst crop of WRs to ever suit up for a playoff game, they played decent. Cam outplayed Drew, we were just a few plays away from taking that game. After that game I felt similar to the way I felt after losing in the playoffs to Seattle in the 14' season, thinking about the upcoming season. I think we surprise everyone again this year, but the offense leading the way more so than the defense.

I've been as hard on Funchess in the past as just about anyone, but the guy was pretty much playing with one arm at that point. He probably wouldn't have even been on the field if we weren't down to just him and a bunch of practice squaders.

Come on man.  Only reason funch was on the feild at that point is it was him or the water boy.  He was obviously in a ton of pain and he is a tough dude.  

Your spot on about the other wideouts.  poo was hard to watch.

Funchess came in extraordinarily young, for all intents and purposes a tight end, raw as a freshly cut filet mignon, and he has shown great improvement. Many fans, including Huddlers, still don't realize that he has yet to even reach his ceiling. If he has another solid year, we'd be unwise to let him get away.

    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
    • That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have. 
    • Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
