A receiver's land of opportunity (or field of quicksand).

We have 6 active WRs on the squad. One, or more of these guys (other than the old man) will seize the moment, catch the dream, and run with it. These suspect youngsters, and other teams' throw-aways will never have a better opportunity to show that they can be productive receivers in the NFL. Only chicken poo calls from the sidelines, bad and/or inexperienced QB play, and/or an O-line that has more holes in it than springtime streets in Detroit will stand in their way.

But, really, in the end I don't think that this motley crew of receivers will be able to blame anyone but themselves if they don't seize the day and make the most of it. I realize that there is plenty of reason to be negative or apathetic about what we have witnessed thus far, but a new day is on the horizon. I, for one, am decidedly optimistic, interested, and downright fascinated to see how this soap opera of the wide-outs is going to turn out.

It depends on how you look at it. we have 6 WR in a run heavy offense plus a new coach coming that wont have any loyalty to any of these guys.

So it could be a bad situation just depends on your outlook.

    • This is huge may not be a trap game but this plays a major part in what they want to do. If we can get some pressure on Sam we know what he does with pressure coming hit and heavy. Also we may be able to take the top off their defense a backup safety trying to stop TMac or Cooker over the top or forcing him to play the backend should allow us to run the ball somewhat effectively. Either they allow some runs or we take some shots and if Bryce and whoever can connect deep we’ll be in business for another big time win against a top notch opponent. Might not be a trap game but health travel game plans all play a major role in each weeks game plan and this week might be leaving our way. We’re missing some replaceable pieces they’re missing key anchors to the offense and defense major difference time to solidly ourselves at one of the top teams in the nfc tomorrow fellas buckle up.
    • Yes.  If I am not mistaken, we need to sign Coker to the ERFA tender and insist that XL spends his spring and summer at a WR camp and not Coon huntin on his four wheeler.  XL was raw when we picked him--which is why I wanted to go another direction--and we are seeing how raw.  He is basically learning a position.     The Panthers will make their move in 2026 to be an NFL powerhouse behind Bryce.  Bryce needs intelligent WRs who catch the ball.  That said, we need a solid #2 to challenge XL and make cutting him easy, if necessary.  A #2 WR (intented to be a #1 by now) with under 400 yards is embarrassing.   On offense, you have to ask, "Where can we get better?"  In my view, #2 WR, TE (although they are improving) and maybe C (again, if we re-sign Mays, he is trending up and at 26, entering his prime--I say stay with him and find competition later in the draft (not good for C).  OL depth maybe?  In other words, XL is a glaring weak spot.
