Ted Ginn: Common Misconception Affecting some Perceptions?

12 good plays, 4 nullified by penalty. not enough in 3 years.

 

Here we go again? I was hoping that we would at least make it past the draft.

 

he is a bust

 

Teds gonna be great on some random team where he can be the #2 or #3 with no pressure.

 

I'm willing to let the coaches make the call
but I think if anyone offers a reasonable trade
or forth round pick GinnJr is gone & good riddance

the guy is just not cut out for the NFL
speed is the first thing to fade over a career
if he loses a step, he loses all utility
& this is an inevitability, think about it

my only concern is for our team. I like GinnJr. I think is a a decent human, just not a football player

 

good article. just laid out why sparano and ireland havent given up on the guy like some fans have. its why he's getting that 4th year instead of the standard three

 

I repeat: I'm willing to let the coaches make the call
but I think if anyone offers a reasonable trade
or forth round pick GinnJr is gone & good riddance

 

I agree, both on the article and your comments about Teddy's 4th year. Ted reminds me of another WR named Martin. Another converted player that Shula/Fans gave up on and then went to the Chargers and had a great career. What is most telling is that Dan never wanted to see him go and was the main reason he was brought back by JJ. I wonder if Henne feels the same and if so will this FO listen?

 

he's had more than 12 good plays

 

agree. and dan is one of the guys defending ginn and saying we need his speed. think he remembers

 

Thats pretty much is going to happen. He'll land with a team that already has a solid number 1 and only going to ask Ted to go deep.

 

Then maybe we should just get a solid number 1.

Problem solved.

 

He'll be playing some where else next year for peanuts.....and in 2 years be out of the league.

But man is that sucker fast

 

Watch the guy come out and play great next season

 

That sounds familiar......oh yeah, last off season

 

I think we say that every season.

 

If Ginn has at least 700 receiving yards and 5 receiving TD's, I'll eat 20 hot peppers consecutively and post the video on ThePhins.com. Hold me to this people.

 

Do we get to pick the peppers?

 

I'm quoting you so I can find this post via the post function.

 

i seriously thought someone bumped a "maybe next year" thread about ginn from the last offseason........we are gunna end up like cubs fans

 

or worse....Bills fans...

 

What do you consider hot peppers? I can eat 20 jalapenos. IN fact I do, for lunch with my carne asada burrito.

20 thai chiles, now that's something altogether different ...

 

and he has to eat it from between the guys legs.

 

I don't think so JS, Ginn is still a young guy, iirc he just turned 24, and he does offer the ability to be a top 5 guy in all purpose yardage and he can get deep, just ask Darrele Revis, so why would he be leaving "next year"?

 

4th round pick or trade

 

wait, are you saying we can get a 4th round pick for Ginn without trading him?

 

Good enough that Sparano wants to keep him.
Good enough that Parcells wants to keep him.
Good enough that Ireland wants to keep him.
Good enough that Marino thinks we should keep him.

Is there some football knowledge disconnect here?

 

difference between wants to keep you. and has to keep you because of the money you owe him.

 

Ginn is a poor man's Roscoe Parrish.

 

Where are the stats for dropped balls and running out of bounds ?

 

and the fact he wasnt even starting/playing alot of this season with a horrible WR corps full of UDFAs and late round draft picks?

 

Ginn has 10 totals TDs in 3 years. (3.34 per year)
Parrish has 10 total TDs in 5 years. (2.00 per year)

Ginn has 128 recs in 3 years. (42.67 per year)
Parrish has 100 rec in 5 years. (20.00 per year)

Ginn avgs 13.0 ypc.
Parrish avgs 10.9 ypc.

Sounds like Parrish is a poor mans Ginn.

 

The Wr corps was horrible in your view Sick?

I thought they were good, not great, and I thought Hartline shined when given a chance, Bess continued his development and Greg C did not drop a single ball.

In my view Greg C could catch 100 passes a yr in the right offense.

As for Ginn, imho he should not be playing alot, he is a #3 Wr who is a elite kick returner, imho he showed what he was this year.

 

Parcells, Ireland and Sparano, yes. But Marino doesn't owe him anything.

I'm not saying he's Jerry Rice. I'm talking about keeping him for next season.

 

I think Ginn was sat in the middle of a season to try to rebuild him... he started to play a lot more at the beginning and end of the season. I think he'll be given one more shot in Miami to see how he fares. I don't think money is the reason why he's given another shot either.

 

well i agree we should keep him for next season....it would be dumb to let him go, if we trade him then sure. but of course we keep him next year. i agree

 

i think......its all opinion from both ends (mine and yours) we dont know why he was benched for sure. but he was. everyone knows my stance on ginn, if he does good, we do good. so ill root for him. i want to upgrade him big time. but who doesnt?
