smith/olsen/shockey/goodson....those guys by themselves make me feel good(not great, but good) about the passing game.

gettis and lafell have a year under their belt so they could improve or slump. yet to be determined slump is more likely.

we do have also williams and stewart who are reliable as receivers as well.

i was a little worried about the receiving corps until we brought in olsen. i wouldn't be opposed to bringing in a vet FA, but i won't be bothered if we don't.

Kudos. You used "corps" instead of "core".

But I do not see Gettis having a bad year this year. If anything, I expect him to have a breakout season.

i hope so...but idea of breakout season is going to be somewhat muted with so many targets coming from a rookie QB on an offense that will be running the ball 35 times a game.

honestly, i don't expect gettis to have more than he had last year. as talented as he might be, the targets just might not be there. he might get into the endzone a couple more times just because of his speed, but his targets will be low.

The Panthers do not need another WR. We have Steve Smith, 3 young 2nd year WR's (2 of which caught 40 passes last year) and 2 pass catching TE's.

Stop rage posting because we didn't trade for Ocho or sign Rice.

Now if you rage post because we haven't signed a CB that is acceptable.

BEFORE they signed Greg Olsen i said get a WR, BUT with Olsen, i think this offense will be fine with what we have. Olsen is going to take pressure off Smith and open things up more. i do think we need a CB, i prefer them to get Rogers.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
