On most other teams Ginn would be benched...

[mc52beast]

No. Im not about to go on a Ted Ginn rant. I'm just going to say that the guy got very little playing time prior to joining the Panthers for a reason. we all know why that is. Don't know why Ron keeps him in the games, whether he feels that Ted will eventually break one or its because there isn't much in the way of options. Whatever the reason, I give Ron props for sticking with Ted, he proved tonight that speed still kills you.

Ginn was beating his guys nasty all day. The thing about passing deep is, it's a long shot. As in.. you're lucky if you get it. 

With him, we get that opp as many times during a game as we want it. He's not going to catch every fugging bomb.

He had 2 touchdowns.  Please stop.

Even dropping the balls, Ginn brings to our offense respect for the deep ball.  It's games like today which keeps teams from consistently putting 8 in the box against us.  All though he dropped the balls, the film will show blowing the doors off of CB's.  That is important in what we do. 

[CarolinaXblue]

That's what you're going to get with a guy like him. But if you haven't been watching the games this year, they keep throwing to him. Even after he drops balls because that's what this teams montra is. He is way too valuable deep and he can make plays, he keeps the defense honest.

[tondi]

Most of the time hes the only guy on the field who can keep the defense from being able to disregard anything that happens more than 20 yards beyond the line of scrimmage.  Even if he drops more than he should at least he's keeping the defense honest over the top which opens things up for the other guys.

We're 12-0...yeah we should start shaking things up.

[SamMills4Life]

He had two farking touchdowns! Who's the great receiver that we're replacing him with?

[Seamonk]

Ginn can take the top off the defense. They can't assume he's gonna drop it. What that does is, it spreads out the coverage and can open up things underneath. He can drop it 10 times in a game but that one catch still means 6 pts. Think about all the times our defense, which is VERY good, got beat long this year? Desean Jackson, Brandin Cooks, etc, these guys pressure the deep ball every play by just being on the field. Ginn is that guy.

[JJman Returns]

He dropped 2 touchdowns as well

The same Ted Ginn that everyone pretty much unanimously agreed provided that spark the Panthers offense and special teams was missing last year.

Ginn provides something that the defense must account for and that's his speed which can take the top off the defense and open things up for everybody else.

Brenton Bersin is a very nice possession receiver, but he doesn't provide any explosion to the offense whatsoever and doesn't stretch the field for Olsen over the middle.

The Panthers know what they have (and don't have) with Ted Ginn. Cam's best attribute as the leader of this offense that has allowed it to improve all year is the ability to always trust his guys, no matter the circumstances.

Good point.  We are 24-4 in the regular season with Tedd Ginn.
