If theres one pick in panthers history that I hated the most- its this turd. he was lazy, soft, and didnt lay out for that beautiful Cam pass in the saints playoff game. 

Was 1st team all-pro at having cramps, joke of a player.

Still pisses me off to this day. That was a perfect pass that Funchess didn't even try to go up for. Shi Smith is 5'9 and has already gone up for more balls in his limited time in preseason than Funchess has his whole career. Soft AF

Actually he went up too early and then the ball went beyond his alligator arms by three feet. He said he lost it in the lights. But Newton gave him a great pass and Funchess was in single coverage.  It should have been caught to erase the questional intentional grounding call.

What’s his injury?

 

 

The article I read just said hamstring injury.  I'm guessing maybe it's torn for them to put him on ir now but it didn't say.  

Regardless, I thought he had a chance to shine in green Bay as they have been hunting a #2 wr for awhile and you know adams will be drawing the coverage away from whoever is their #2.  Seems to be a lot of hate for him here which I don't share. 

Hope his career has something left but I agree that it worked out that we didn't pay him.

    • That zone was so soft that 3 guys were bearly on the screen. No rushing called. Playing off the line 10+ yards. Yeah that's garbage time. It took an onsides kick to make them try to play D again. Until then they didn't care and still wouldn't play real D against Young until they absolutely had to and that was with backups in the backfield. Slow start is freaking hilarious. He was gifted the lowest effort a bad team can give and still couldn't put anything together for 1 freaking series at the end after 2 quarters of warmup ball. It was like watching someone stretching for an hour and then pull a hammy after 10 feet of running. 
    • On the subject of Reich and him being no good as a coach, because he wouldn’t change everything he did to accommodate Young. He wanted to sit Young. He knew what Young was.  But to the point, was Andrew Luck a good QB under Reich in Indy? Most people don’t hesitate to say yes. Well, Luck thought enough of his coaching to bring him to Stanford.  There is a bona fide NFL QB that seems to dispute the painting of Reich as a incompetent and the reason for Young’s shortcomings.  Yes he got fired. It appears as if Tepper and Fitterer forced a QB he did not want on him and poisoned the well right from the start. I don’t blame Reich one bit for being pissed either.  And I wasn’t a Reich guy I wanted Wilks. I accepted the Reich hire but never lobbied for him.  Just saying he is being dogged here unfairly.   
    • I think its a mix of both. Bryce being too small and offense is too vanilla. Plays arent creative enough. Most are slants, fades and runs. But even Baker and Sam had to deal with vanilla offense and looked horrid. Thats why I say it's a mix of both.
