So before we hit the panic button on Funchess..

I think funch will score his first td this week

I see nothing wrong with the OPs post. Included stats and I thought it was pretty good tbh.

Le sigh.

I'll give him that. Could've been worse. Look at me though...I'm still posting in this thread. 

Keep your head up PU. Keep pounding.

Just change the title to "Funchess Compared to Other Rookie WRs" and it's fine. It's the the assumption of a panic button that dooms it, and the current PU thread bias.

Ok, perhaps I did see a few people mention something along the lines of how Funchess has been a big disappointment and how he doesnt seem to have chemistry with Cam and how he doesnt fit our offense and I took that as hitting the panic button.

I think many of you are overlooking my main point that Funch isnt the only one struggling

I think you made a wrong turn when you took some dumb individual comments from random threads and created a false general consensus, thus then creating a thread addressing that illusion.

who panics two games into a rookie season?

PU does.

Not only is nobody hitting the "panic button" I don't even think he's "struggling"

Sure he hasn't had a lot of production so far, but he's a rookie WR, not even a 1st round WR. I think most people think he's right on schedule to becoming a reliable possession receiver and serious red zone threat, which I think is what we drafted him for. I don't think anyone expected him to become Odell Beckham.

[GoobyPls]

Nobody is panicking, anyone who saw him play at Michigan or heard news about his off season struggles  knew he wasn't gonna be ready.

 

BTW all those guys you listed are stuck with either a bad QB or behind a deep group of receivers. 

[JawnyBlaze]

Some of the WRs listed have been injured and not even playing.  Hardly comparable.

[Chaos]

So, you had to make this thread, but you couldn't even throw us a bone and put Funchess' stats in the list so we could at least get a comparison across the other guys?  If you're gonna do it, then do it all the way man.

[CPantherKing]

Ginn, Brown, Cotchery, and Norwood > Funchess.

Gave up 3 draft picks for Funchess.

Funchess has been targeted 6 times and caught 2 passes. (128th in catch %)

That puts him among the bottom 10% of NFL WRs.

 

Seriously, it is too early and I expect him to get more targets as the season goes on. If he is at this pace come week 8 to 10 and the receivers the Panthers have are better options, then the organization has a problem. My only fear is we have another WR who cannot pick up the playbook which leads to many on field mistakes ala Dwayne Jarrett.
