Power Rankings of all 32 offenses, post draft - guess who's dead last

We should be able to run the ball a lot better than we did last season. We'll be going from below average OG's, to former second round pick Silatolu, who knocked down damn near every player he blocked in college, and third round pick Turner, who was first in touchdown-resulting blocks in the SEC, and had 64 knockdowns. We'll have athletic dump trucks at OG, so I'm expecting a big season from 'double trouble'.

 

Passing wise it's anyone's guess. Cam is inconsistent, and he doesn't have much to work with. Adding a raw rookie WR with one good season of college play under his belt is unlikely to result in a quick improvement in the passing game. The good news is that Cam's ability to scramble, combined with his designed runs, partially makes up for our lack luster passing game. And I'm certainly not placing a lot of blame on Cam for our offense being a disappointment. Our o-line isn't even close to the quality most other teams provide for their QBs, and our WR corps is the worst in the league.

 

The team with the worst offense will be a team starting a rookie QB, or a team with a terrible QB. We don't fit the bill, but I don't think the media cares at all about being right about their predictions. They know which teams they can sh!t all over and get away with it, and we're on their sh!t list. The Jags are right below us on the list, but they're usually right about the Jags.

As long as Shula is the O-coordinator our offense will be in the bottom 4th of the league...where you stack em from there is like deciding whose poop smells worse. Stinks either way.

 

It is really hard to effectively judge Shula based on the players we had. A couple years back when the defense was bottom 10 in the league everybody said McDermont sucked and now this year he is the man. It is amazing how a few added pieces can change your entire team and outlook on a coach.

If Shula doesn't retool the offense we very well could struggle, even with Cam.

You can't throw from your back and if Shula doesn't shorten the routes then Cam is going to be on his back or running for his life quite a bit with our current OL. Our OL should be a decent run-blocking team but God help us in pass-protection.

In my opinion, we ran way to me 20 yard + routes last year instead of nickel'ing and dime'ing our opponent down the field. If Shula draws up a 15 yard route on 3rd and five this year, I might just lose it.

Veterans such as Jerricho Cotchery and Jason Avant hope to help, and first-round pick Kelvin Benjamin may have to step up sooner than later. Tight end Greg Olsen led the team in receiving in 2013. The offensive line will have a different look with the retirement of left tackle Jordan Gross.

I like when some of those offenses are ranked so high in May and once the suck during the season they try creating all kind of excuses for them.

 

Reference Giants in 2013. Everybody talked about them then, poof. No one can tell how a team will rank in the off season.
