How's Gettis doing?

[Ruff]

You may be right. The reason I thought one was a sack-fumble-TD is because I was certain I would remember without a doubt if we threw back to back pick sixes on consecutive plays. I guess the mind is an amazing thing, blocking out trauma and all.

They were both pick sixes. :(

Remember the old saying..."Absence makes the heart grow fonder"?

That applies to Gettis. People are building him up to be something he isn't. He is still very much an unproven WR. To me, it is risky going into next year assuming he will be our 2nd WR.

Wow, and look at Mike Goodson with 120 yards rushing against the stout Ravens defense!!

EXACTLY. Gettis has now turned into the most overrated player on the team. Gettis had 2 legit good games last year.....2. You know how many rookies can show up for 2 games and never really amount to anything??

Gettis can run the deep stuff simple b/c he had speed. LaFell last year looked much more athletic, went up for the ball better, and ran all the other routes better outside the deep go.......yet Gettis is going to comeback and be capable of being the #2 and potentially replacing Smitty.

The funny thing about this board is that people take complements to the extreme.

Hey the kid did well last year= OMFG people act like he is the next Steve Smith.

or

The kid put up some good numbers last year= NU uh he was lucky and it does not count.

Its like some people want to hate every player on this team!

Im just happy we have some players with potential and look forward to them progressing in the future.

I suppose he's doing well, he was on the sidelines last home game.

in fairness, a lot of people haven't just paid Gettis compliments.....they basically did the same thing that was done w/ Pilares. Inked him in the offense as X......when you can't justify it.

Gettis was a 6th rounder for a reason and we saw that last year (people just forget). He has speed....lacks a lot of the other stuff to make you are complete WR. End of the year many were talking LaFell might be > Gettis.....now people act like Gettis is on a different level than LaFell too much

Steve Smith and Ron Rivera have both said that Gettis is the biggest, strongest, fastest, and best deep threat the Panthers have. Can't wait to get him back.

No matter how you currently view the kid...if you look like this in a Jeff Davidson offense with Brian St. Pierre, Jimmy Clausen, & Tony Pike throwing to you...I think there's promise:

[beastson]

Speed kills, I know that

Do I know if that speed will be the same after the knee injury... no

DG did the Superman shirt rip before Cam ever did.

I think what most people are saying is that if he can produce in Davidson's system imagine what he could do in Chuds. Both LaFell and Gettis produced in Davidson's system so people are excited to see what can happen when both are back to form. I mean its not an unreasonable assumption when you see how horrid Davidson's system was.
