Something is wrong with him. They have to stop throwing to him, he's going to cause an interception yet tonight. Keep him on the field but the ball away from him!

Just to be truthful for my previous post - I am a Fantuz fan - I have his Jersey - I'm wearing his jersey as we speak, however this is a team game! Not individual. If he can keep drawing penalties like just he just did - good for him, but until his confidence is back, we need to be more careful - as a team.

The klanks have been brutal, but I'm not worried. Andy will come around, every receiver goes through a slump.

If we stop going to Fantuz because of his drops, then that'll continue to get in his head and he'll never become a good receiver. I think Kerry did the right thing by going right back to him.

I hate for this to be my first post but I think they should sit him for a game just for mental reasons...I am more concerned about his face after four dropped balls in the first half?! He looks like a small child looking for his parents at a U4 soccer game...Be professional and get back in there. Never seen 11 dropped catches in 2.5 games coming for Fantuz at the start of the year. Why is he the deep route receiver and not Grant? Grant catches everything throwin his way...

Can't wait to see Yo Murphy hopefully soon...

We should throw him some short passes to get his confidence back. We keep throwing long bombs and he has too much time to think about catching it. If we build his confidence back he will soon forget that he was dropping balls.

It seems he doesn't have trouble lately on the short ones but the ones where he has to turn his shoulders he's dropping

Fantuz has to go. I'm serious. You're not going to win many games, much less get a home play off spot or championship with Mr Hands of Stone.

Not only does he drop what would have been a sure major (he was 15 yards open with nobody in front of him), but he doesn't even know where the first down marker is before making his cut.

Our offense was playing 11 on 12 tonight because Joseph has become afraid to throw to him and waste the down. The last play not withstanding, several times he was open and Joseph ignored him because he couldn't catch it anyway.

Put him back on the practice roster where he belongs.
