Funchess is a soft bum.

You're right. You're not a Panther's fan anyway so I'm guessing... Redskins?

@pantherclaw drove from fuging Galveston TX to go to camp this year, as big a fan as any.

 

One rough game from Funchess doesnt mean he's a bum. I agree that he's soft for his size and I don't think he's a #1 wideout or ever will be, but despite that he's a solid as heck #2 and does have playmaking ability to offer at the position. I hope we don't shell it big dough for him if that's what it takes either, especially with the depth we have at WR but for the right price I'd love to keep him around long term.

It was sarcasm. He's soft as Charmin, it hasn't been just one game.

Lets see the ones bashing Funchess go out on the field and catch a pass and see how good they are.

Lmao shut up. He's an NFL player we are not. If he's going to be compensated like one then he should play like it.

The “let’s see you play in the nfl and see how you do” comments are always a breath of fresh air. Let’s see NFL players do a job they’re not equipped, talented enough, etc. to do, like plumbing or sat-com and see how they do. 

Fun fact: NFL players can be criticized. They make millions of dollars. If they can’t handle it they should probably find a different proffesion.

I have a feeling Pats sign Funch after the year and he goes for like 1500 and 10+ TDs

Would not surprise me whatsover. He's a very fluid route runner. He would need a surgeon to bring the best out of him because he's not a "get up and grab it" WR.

    • Man whether it's the Panthers or the Hornets it's crazy how many foolish talking heads there are in the local media. I just unsubscribed from locked on Hornets. Doug Branson with his cheesy mustache is an absolute clown especially when his partner isn't on. Talking about trading LaMelo because he can't win basketball games by himself with no semblance whatsoever of a legitimate Center. These YouTube personalities will say anything for a damn click.
    • I’m hoping for that exact same scenario, two seconds would be big for us. I’d hope for 3 impact players. A WR/DL/DE that can contribute like this current class would be key to our rebuild.
    • When I look at what I can find, a carryover problem from last season is our receivers are still unable to get enough separation on a consistent basis. Canales is certainly better at scheming them open, like how he sneaked out Thielen for a big play. But then he's also having Thielen running routes he frankly shouldn't be doing anymore. I feel part of the RZ issues is not really having anyone - after trading Diontae - who can make those quick cuts on a short field to give whoever is under center a wider window to throw. We also only have one guy with blazing speed in Thompkins and from what I could see, he's really used more to draw away coverage. I bring this all up because what Canales needs for sustained success - other than QB - is the other receiver pieces we'll be getting in the offseason.  Otherwise, I have to say that Canales isn't as afraid to be aggressive offensively. As others mentioned, still doesn't run the ball enough at times. Finally, I still feel his playcalls still doesn't line up with his mantra of getting rid of the ball within x amount of seconds. Maybe I count too slow. Oh, and I'm glad Canales first game after a bye looked good. I feared he'd be like Ron Rivera where we would fall flat on our faces.
