This past Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons continued a worrying trend that was present in the first game of the season, but really goes back into last season as well. That trend is the Carolina Panthers receiver corps under-performing. They are dropping passes, running sloppy or wrong routes, and generally just looking confused out there as to what they should be doing at any particular moment.
The only exception to the above seems to be Jarius Wright, a guy who learned how to operate within Norv Turner’s system somewhere else, and so far is the only one who is playing with any degree of professional acumen and trust from Cam Newton.
