I was wondering the same thing, but then wondered why cam threw to a rookie that was triple covered to win the game, figured the refs just laughed at us at the end

Funchess would have caught it and go out of bounds at the one and Torre would have tried to catch the ball with them alligator arms so why not throw to the first rounder who made the biggest Play by a WR in the game

Just really impressed Moore almost had it in triple coverage getting mugged (face it we were not gonna get that call). 

I’ll ll bet money Moore would catch the game winner that Funchess chocked on last year against the saints ... 

He's got to catch it though.  The ball hits your arm, you are a 1st round pick WR, you better catch it.  He will have to learn from this and hopefully not make the same mistake again.

Maybe instead of looking for a reason to ridicule Cam Newton, you could instead ask why it took being down big late in the 4th quarter to finally get DJ Moore actively involved. This on the road against a bitter division rival. That is just pitiful

Not only being down big late in the 4th but also a minor injury to Wright to make him have to sit (atleast I think I remember the announcers saying something about him being out since I don't think they showed whatever happened or him coming off). This is one fact that really pissed me off since what was the point of drafting a WR in the 1st round if we were only going to use him on special team (and only because Byrd is injuried currently). I would have had him in for every play of that last drive after that amazing catch and TD to give us a chance but...... you know...... that's Ron for you.

    • Absolutely. He just turned 27 a few days ago, so quite young. He and Moehrig would be quite the pairing.  I know we say this every year, but this FA period has A LOT of talent that will be switching uniforms. We were aggressive last year and have no doubt this time next week will have some studs on defense.   
    • DJ Moore has always been a bit of an enigma. He came here young, flashed a ton of potential, but never truly grew into a real #1. He’s had a few good reasons, but yet to have a real monster season (outside of his first year with Chicago) We’re still waiting for him to blossom, but he will be 29 next season. I fear that it is too late for him at this point.
    • I have considered free agency.  LT?  Either not good enough or too expensive.  Besides, this is a good OT draft.  (I would rather have a free agent, mind you, but the Panthers' reality suggests we can't do it without neglecting other positions).  What LTs are available in free agency, and what do you expect to pay?  Any Ickey-level OT is going to cost over $20m.   How much do we already have invested in our OL?  I get your point, but I do not think you can spend over $100m per on your OL. We have 2 guards and a right T who pull in about $75m per season.  We don't have a center yet.  Teams just don't let good LTs hit free agency, and when one does on rare occasion, he is expensive.  If you want a third of the Panther cap going to 5 Offensive Linemen, free agency is the way to go.  We still need S, ILB, Edge, WR, etc. I think we'd need more than Nijman--and I would understand if we went free agent for a T--but that is putting a TON of your cap at OL--so considering our situation, I do not see that option as preferable.  You may disagree. If I was not talking LT on our line and thinking about the cap, I would agree 100%.
