based on expectations/talk going on....my huddle bucks are betting on....

the huddle being mad/disappointed Tmac doesn't come out the gates being what the board expects him to be right away

XL gets some redemption as he makes more plays than people are expecting.

That certainly wouldn't surprise me at all.

XL is a fantastic talent.   

His drops last year, while frustrating,  is not his norm. 

I expect him to have a breakout year.

I still think XL offers the biggest overall play potential on the O.  Bryce and Canales need to find a way to give him some YAC opportunity that isn't at the LOS.

that wasn't directed at you.  Just the general group thought on Tmac and what is expected. 

I think if you put up a huddle poll 85+ % would say he is a 1k WR this year and likely the favorite for OROY.

I am replying based on Huddle input, if you read the full message.

We can put a poll up for expected production/results. Might be interesting to check back on towards the end of the season.

Absolutely.

That’s concerning the worst thing you can do is think about it that’s how you get the yips

I recall several times where he would get TAGGED. He had numerous welcome to the NFL moments. factor? Certainly plausible.

Great to hear this. Certain huddle experts told me body catching is fine, glad the coaches and XL are working on it. Hope this dude absolutely balls this year

I don't think the expectations on TMac are as high as you think. TBH, we saw higher expectations for XL in year 1 than TMac, based on the Huddle input, anyway. 

A lot of both of their production is going to be tied to Bryce anyway. I suspect that if Bryce doesn't take a big leap, 80% of the ire is going to be directed at him rather than any specific WR.

Oddly enough if you follow fantasy, non panthers people are expecting a lot. I’ve seen him as high as WR9 in fantasy rankings.

I think basically anyone, huddle included, would have Jeanty OROY. He looks elite from preseason w2

Even if XL said it, Davey Newton reported it so it is automatically sus.

Its like a hitter in baseball in a slump.  You need positive thoughts, not demons in your head.  He will be OK...but I worry about the first drop and his ability to overcome them.

I saw the post a few days ago. I think the TB WR was top 15 too. I said my piece about it. It's completely insane to be banking a high WR pick on TMac with him both being a rookie and the offensive situation being what it is in Carolina.

As a fan, I wouldn't touch that poo until the top 20 WR's. That risk/reward scale makes it very suspect.

nothing helps you get over drops and negative thoughts like playing well and winning
