Our WR's going forward

Watching the WR Corp this season has made me realize a few things:

Smith still has the ability to be a game changer. He can make the big plays, and it was great that we kept him there.

Naanee was a liability at the beginning of the season, but he has become a solid backup. He still doesn't make as much of an effort as he should on balls that are not thrown directly at him. we often see throws that he could make an adjustment to either catch or keep away from a defender.

LaFell could be something special in the coming years. He isn't consistent and isn't getting all of the opportunities this season, but when the ball is thrown his way, he tends to make great catches and is quite adept at YAC. If he can get more consistent, he is potentially our future no. 1. Smith has already said before he is wanting to have another receiver to help take the responsibility.

Our wide receivers should be good for now. combine them with our RB's and TE's and we have enough offensive power for Newton to be a major NFC South threat for years. Next year's draft needs to be Offensive Line and Defense to solidify the team.

      Level Of Enthusiasm Going into Game 1

      By frankw · Posted

      In terms of enthusiasm at this exact juncture it's a 5 only because regular season football is back and we are 0-0 and there is the development of some key young players that I am very interested in seeing in regular season action. That brief high will probably be knocked down to 1 by October though.

      I think the preseason performance has caused a "Meh" Cloud  to hover over the fan base.  I still have some interest and while I don't expect a lot of wins, I think there are other things I would like to see in terms of the team at least going in the right direction. On offense is Bryce the guy and is XL moving forward? Is the defense performing better with DB back Are the rookies and 2nd year players developing? That said, for me there is some intrigue but I don't think they will compete for a playoff spot.

      Well just a few years ago they went to the playoffs and won a playoff game with Daniel Jones at QB. And while the Giants have been up and down at best since their last Super Bowl they have shown to be a more competent organization. While the Panthers haven't so much as sniffed the playoffs in nearly a decade. Logic would dictate that the Giants strategy has a high probability to be at least modestly successful. The Panthers? Eh.
