The Funchess tip pick

[AceBoogie]

Looking back at the interception you notice two things.

1. Greg Olsen was open for a first down

2. If Cam hits Funchess in stride it's most likely a touchdown, assuming he catches it.

It was a smart throw. Not sure why he'd go to Olsen with such prime yardage opportunity available. Funchess just dropped it.

I love whats happening with Funchess... he was supposed to come here and sit down and learn ... bla bla bla bla... Sry buddy you're coming here to Produce. :) 

 

Love this team. Hell be fine.

Smart read, but a poor throw

We know what happened.  Lets not harp on it.

Then what do we talk about during the week? Steve Smith?

Wouldn't have been a TD. There was a safety deep on the play that is just outside of the shot. Also Funchess ain't fast so he isn't out running the secondary for 60 yards.

Funchess is slow out of his break. Ball is still a little high but if he is quicker out of the break it is pretty much on target.

Least with that there are all sorts of angles to take the conversation.  In this instance cam threw a pass, funch tipped it and it was intercepted.  

Nevermind ill take the "if you dont want to read it dont open it" approach and see myself out.

Rivera himself, along with multiple media contingents outside our market, felt that Funchess dropped the ball, literally and figuratively.

 

there's an excuse every week for why he dropped a ball.

 

"the ball wasnt in absolutely perfect position to be caught"

 

"that opposing defense is so good tho!"

 

"the ball was wet"

This is the NFL. The amount of times in which you are going to operate under perfectly ideal conditions is never. At some point you have stop making excuses and accept nothing less than him doing his job. He was brought here to catch exactly those kinds of passes.

 

I believe in him, now he needs to start performing that task routinely.

Did Cam throw it a little bit behind him? That's what it looked like on TV... if he had led him a little bit it might have been an easier catch.

[beastson]

I mean let's not get caught on the if aspect of it, because Cam hit Devin in stride against Seattle with Richard Sherman on him and he dropped it, Thomas almost picked it off.

Every pass isn't going to be perfect.

Dude...go actually watch the play.  The throw was way high and right.  Was is "possible" for Funchess to come down with it?  Possibly.  But, the throw was a terrible pass plain and simple.

[Ornias]

A little touch on that pass and it was going to go for a huge gain.
