Cooley's great, mobile, tall and has that receiver's sense of when to jump, but I would have felt alot better if Ramsey made the read on Sellers, who was left completely alone with no defenders in the area. To me the Cooley pass was another example of Ramsey telegraphing and trying to force a completion, only this time it worked . i wonder if the coaches saw it that way too.

I don't know how much you watch the panthers, but if it weren't for catches like that, there'd be quite a few QB's that wouldn't have jobs in the NFL. Jake Delhomme being the most predominant off the top of my head. But if he had thrown it to sellers, and sellers missed the ball, or we got stopped and settled for a field goal, we'd be saying, "man, hes gotta throw that ball up there and give his reciever a chance to make a play." ya know? I think that's the reason we keep McCants if he proves he can catch with a better healed hand. They, too have a natural endzone chemistry. Having another vertical threat in the redzone would probably not be a bad Idea.

yeah that kind of trust and chemistry for Ramsey is important, which is why i'm hoping McCants gets to stay on the roster. but so far, that seems like a very outside chance.

i'd like Ramsey to rely less on individual trust and more on reading the entire field.
