And not just because of his performance today.

I'll admit it when it comes to unproven rookies, with the exception of a high profile name like Jimmy, I tend to overlook some of them and only really get interested in them on a more personal, in-depth level, AFTER they show me something.

For those of you that are like me in that regard, I STRONGLY URGE YOU, to watch this post-game interview with him.

WOW! What a humble kid. Intelligent. AND MATURE! Oh man if only he can maintain this type of playing he would have THE PERFECT skill-personality combo and would quickly rise as one of the main leaders of this offense.

That is what I want to see in my Panthers. Seriously this kid talks with the maturity level of John Kasay. Very impressed. He has that "quiet confidence" vibe going too. I really like that.

I like Gettis. I watched that clip earlier today, and I like how he's humble. He doesn't sound like a thug either when he speaks, definitely seems intelligent and a class act.

Yeah that's exactly what I was thinking. I love Smith to death, but it's nice to see the alternative.

A talented black NFL receiver with no traces of thug or the typical(ok maybe not-so-typical) cockiness T.O and Ochocinco have graces us with?

On OUR team?

Someone slap me and wake me up. This kid could actually be A ROLE model. Like for real, for real.

Speaking of which Gettis has offensive rookie of the week wrapped up. Hopefully no rookies do well on monday.

Even if he doesn't get that I have a feeling after today other teams are going to be accounting for him from here on out.

I know I am. I'm going to be paying a lot more attention to him now, and believe he should definitely be a lock for #2 WR next week. Hopefully next week he can lock it down for the season.

Which will just leave the battle between LaFell and Devin Thomas.

I'm hoping he can replace the void left by Moose when he left. He certainly proved he has the ability to run routes well and he can make some tough catches. The best part is that David has made steady progress each and every game, this guy has really adjusted well to playing in the NFL.

      You don’t even need 1b because Tepper is the only one foolish enough to wheel that deal.    Player wise? Jake’s elbow. JR and Pep getting sideways, no Carruth, Cam’s shoulder, Luke’s concussions, it would be a long list of stuff. You can take it down to certain plays in games. Fox chasing 2 point conversions in the SB would be on my list. RMJr slipping at the end of that same game was not helpful.

      Top 10 worst qb rooms from CBS sports. Panthers number 9

      Ultimately this just amounts to heavy revisionist history. I mean you aren't talking to someone that just popped out the womb a week ago. I was here all throughout the predraft process. The overwhelming majority of the fanbase felt like this was a fine situation and the best situation for a rookie QB to go to compared to Houston for example. The hype for Young and our "rockstar" staff was off the charts. No one could dare speak cautious skepticism of his abilities or they would be neg repped into oblivion. Only after he had one of statistical worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years did we get this narrative now that his rookie season actually shouldn't count. Complete malarkey if you ask me.

      On the field? Since I guess it qualifies as multiple instances it might not count, but have the damn refs throw some flags on illegal hits to Cam's head in SB50. If that doesn't count, 1A. Cotchery caught it 1B. Kasey keeps that kickoff inbounds. Off the field? 1A. Team is sold to anyone but Tepper 1B. We have the patience not to mortgage the franchise on that Bryce trade. Stroudwpuldve been the better pick but he's not worth it either.
