obviously PFF so grain of salt etc 

Top right: lots of separation, good yac/hands. 

bottom left: can’t get open, drops everything/does nothing with the ball

just eyeballing it

Thielen: top 15 ish % overall. @NAS not to call you out, just something we were discussing the other day. Thielen is having a fantastic year by rate. 

Coker: slightly below avg separation, above avg hands/yac

XL: sucks

Diontae Johnson: only thing more difficult than covering him is medicating him

David Moore: not a bad piece, for what is ideally a number 4 receiver.

also Christ philly win a Super Bowl already.

Thielen has been excellent this year. Defenses know that he's Bryce's first read on any critical conversion and they still aren't usually able to stop it.

There’s a very easy explanation for this: veteran presence 

and by that I mean the presence of his arms pushing defenders away 

not to mention him just straight taking out other defenders on crossing routes  

i love it

He's fun to watch - so is Coker, but for different reasons. 

I think some fans seriously underestimate how important Thielen is to this offense.

There was definitely no missing XL on Sunday.

I think people are really underestimating how bad XL has been. 

I think the disappointment in him has been offset by the excitement in Coker. Offsetting a potential mistake with our first pick with a gem undrafted FA is a wash. 

imagine if they both develop into solid starters

Play calling is also better than last year. Look at AT’s separation last year vs this year. DC is drawing up plays to get him open as he should be. Hopefully we finally found ourselves a solid HC. As for XL, I’m not too worried. He has flashed some potential which is what I expected from him year 1. He was never going to be a plug and play WR.

Man we are really playing with fire. AT will be what? 33 next year? He’s great this year no doubt but you hit a wall in the NFL with age and when it comes it hits HARD. XL I’m not writing off but he hasn’t been good this year. Coker, great find by us but he’s a nice complementary piece. 
 

we need to look long and hard at trading for garret Wilson or going WR first round

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
