Stop scapegoating passing game's failures on the receivers

A rookie, a second year bust, a UDFA, a very sick man, and a collection of no-names. We traded his only good receiver for magic beans before the season started. We better make some deals to move up and draft another wr, or it will stunt his development.

That’s not entirely XL’s fault. With Ladd being thrown to by Bryce it might have been 45 ypg for McConkey.  Bryce has thrown for less than 200 yards in 5 straight games.  

XL vaulted on the scene being a down the field jump ball threat that could catch slants and take it to the house. Bryce is good at neither of those things. 

 Bryce doesn’t throw it to the middle of the field unless things break down ( he can’t see) and you already know about his noodle arm.

I don’t think XL will ever be a star but I think he will find a role in some one’s offense due to his athleticism.  

Good points that some seem to be easily forgetting.

As for Ladd, the best thing that happened to him was NOT being drafted by the Panthers.

I am well aware, especially considering how many more targets XL has gotten in that timespan.

Hence why I have apologized to TMJ and Mingo so often.

Bad ball placement.  I mean we all have eyes, Bryce can't throw a decent ball to XL.

wait wait wait anyone criticizing byoung isnt a "real" panther fan a "real" panther fan rides with a bust qb until the bust retires and always suports the qb and degrades the coaches and everyother player on the team

McMillan is 13th in the NFL in yards but 86th of 89 eligible WRs in catchable ball rate.

Let that sink in

 

Honestly think he’s gonna be a top tier receiver, on par with guys like Jefferson, Chase, JSN, etc. once he gets an actual QB.

I believe there's plenty of blame to spread around: QB, receivers, play calling, injuries on the offensive line, poor talent evaluation and drafting.

I mean, really.

He will be good but I don't think he has that level of speed to be elite.

He’s faster than I expected and you really don’t need elite speed to be that caliber. You might be right but he’s definitely impressed me so far in a pretty shitty situation for a receiver to be in. In KC or similar situation he’d be putting up 1400+ yards easily

Hes easily a 10 year pro bowler but chase and Jefferson are from another world

One point I have heard made  by several analysts that may have relevancy

McMillian and Legette are both high pointers catching  the ball and both had  little separation in their college careers and that continues to the nfl 

this Qb, however, requires separation and in college traditionally had receivers who could get open

Ole Adam knew how to get open …I’ll say that for him…or comeback to the qb when he was in trouble

He doesn’t know how to get open.

Bryce not being good is not an excuse for XL loafing through routes, dropping passes and getting no separation.
