I just feel like we are not at full strength on the offense without this guy. LaFell is decent, but he is not a true number 2.

LaFell looked more like a #2 than Gettis as a rookie. Gettis had speed....LaFell did everything but the vertical route better back then.

The legend of Gettis will likely continue to grow....

I would agree that LaFell has slightly better hands, but its not that big of a difference. I prefer Gettis' speed over LaFell's hands.

I just don't feel that number 2 vibe coming from LaFell. He just doesn't have that spark. I keep waiting for him to have that moment, that one catch that says "Here I am!", but instead his play just says "blah". I see his potential as being a little better than Proehl, and that doesn't cut it for me. (I see LaFell as a #3)

Gettis had that swagger late in his rookie season. He saw an opening, and he made the plays that said "Here I am!" How many signature youtube plays does LaFell have from his rookie season? I can think of at least two from Gettis.

500 yards and 3 touchdowns 1 year makes you a Future HOFer /huddle logic

With who was throwing to him, it was impressive. He had some big time plays you fail to remember. God it is like nobody watch the games that season because we were so bad. Dude just has to catch it and he has breakaway speed. Also he is bigger than Lafell at 6'3 220ish. He is very strong and a great weapon to have on offense. How quickly people forget, but oh how quickly people will remember and suddenly love the guy.

Soooo where have you been all last season and this preseason? I must have missed something here. You were looking at #11, right?

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By electro's horse · Posted

      Wow I can’t believe the panthers tried to trade up, failed, but still got the guy they wanted to trade up for. I wonder if anyone else has ever said that next you’ll tell me they had Hunter and Brazzell graded as first rounders.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      I don’t think people are saying that picking up the option is a call for the pitchforks. We would have had to do things differently a couple of years back to make declining the option a valid move. We didn’t and here we are. People largely accept that. The pattern it adheres to, reinforces the nausea we feel when the idea of an extension, and at top of the market no less, comes up.  One that he hasn’t shown he deserves.   Same as he did not deserve to be drafted 1.1. Look at Pavia and what really is the difference? Bryce is a nice guy and Pavia is an asshole lol. They are both no margin for error non day one talents. One went undrafted.  Probably should have been drafted day three anyway. The other was way over drafted.

      We hate losing. I don't know Bryce to hate him. His play as a QB, I absolutely hate. It's just not good enough. If there were a lottery held to select the order and all 32 starting QBs could be drafted as the starting QB for whatever team selected them, how long do you think it would be before Bryce's name was called? Top 10, top 20, bottom 8? Think about it.  For me, having never seen back to back games with franchise QB level performance in 3 years tells me what I need to know. We still need to be looking for our solution at QB.
