ugh, we seem to have one of the worst TE cores in the league. i mean this group is really f**king horrendous. their blocking is adequate but can one of them ever become a desirable receiving weapon? can we ever have a TE that can give us 5 for 60 a game? how about 4 for 45/game or 3 for 40? i'll settle for that at this point since we haven't even come close to that since wesley walls

Jeff king's 2007 is just laughable, looking back at it now. it only even happened because david carr couldn't see anybody else while sitting in the pocket. it was just here-and-there production mostly, he was average in just about every category even in his best year, and that was mostly because david carr was feeding him the ball because he had poo field vision. also his first down percentage that year was mediocre compared to most other TEs.

nobody would even care about Rosario if not for that one game he outclassed Antonio Gates in and got that last second catch. He's made such an average career out of that one fuging game

I tend to disagree, every TE had some very nice plays and touchdowns last season. I think if one of the three can have a big game each week thats all we can ask for.

King had an exceptional teacher in that regard, as Mangum was one of the original "sum of the parts," players here. He never looked like much but parlayed his work and intelligence into a 10-year NFL career.

Mangum "did it the right way," King said. "He kept his mouth shut, he worked hard. You always knew what you had, you knew he wasn't going to make a mental mistake. Things you take for granted, he always did. I learned a lot from him on how to be a pro."

did he?

(By Darin Gantt, [email protected]) Throughout training camp, Carolina Panthers tight end Jeff King has been answering a lot of questions, almost exclusively about other people.p/At some point, you'd think he'd get credit for what he was doing.

This is great news.I was impressed with King at training camp.

He seemed to have a different swager this year nad really stood out.

I really think we should hold off opinions on our TE core until we get a full season WITHOUT Jake as QB...

Jake threw more to the tight ends than Moore did last year. That wqsn't the problem. We haven't highlighted plsys for the tight ends and used them primarily as blockers. If the tight ends have a good year this season it will because Davidson has finally figured out to use them rather than a great credit to whoever the quarterback is. Or it may be because our wide receivers as a group are so weak, the TEs look good in comparison.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By Diehardpanth02 · Posted

      Yeah man, that was a catch. I like to imagine the game isn’t rigged but it’s well known sports betting is ruining the sport. Unfortunately, most coaches plan for 3 phases of the game. But there is really 4, offense, defense, special teams, and special occasions. on special occasions the refs can influence the game, leaving you in positions your actively planning to stay out of and how you respond in those special occasions make or break the game. Other times it’s other reasons. But I like to hope that the right team, or right player can extend past those types of setbacks and still find a way. anywho, probably a pipe dream. But it’s how I see it.
