Mike Shula "We cant expect to win many games running the ball 10 times"

He has a point but you have to have healthy bodies to do that.

 

Exactly. Even beyond healthy, you have to have the right bodies. You call plays for the team you have, you don't just call plays based on your philosophy to try to force square pegs into it.

How many passing plays go for 2 yards compared to runs? If its incomplete we lost a total of two yards. If there is contact or a catch its at least 5.

I get your point but just to play devil's advocate, how many running plays lose 7+ yards like most sacks do?

I was emphatically against the Shula hire, but once it was a done deal, it seemed appropriate to keep an open mind.

What is going on now on the Huddle is the same kind of group think that damned Greg Hardy. Shula could say "I like puppies" and most here would condemn him for it.

Meanwhile, the other side of the ball had a worse outing than the offense, and yet we don't have multiple threads to roast McDermott and company.

Coming into the year, Shula's problem was being too conservative according to most. We've seen more no huddle, more pass plays on 1st down, and he actually received a few compliments after week 2. Then we lost and he's back to being the whipping boy.

I don't know what else to say. Too many are laying way too much on his proverbial doorstep.

 

Shula has sucked or been average every year of his NFL coaching career calling plays. 

 

Our offense being lack luster is the norm. 

 

Our defense being dominant is the norm. 

 

Hence why people are not wanting to roast any D coach. 

 

Coming into this year Shula's problem was he is not an elite or even good OC. 

 

Which is still the case.

So Shula sucks because he sucked in Tampa 10 years ago? In your mind, that defines him no matter what happens in Carolina?

Ok, so give me a short list of who we should get to replace him. Make sure they have never experienced any rough patches in their career up to now. Who ya got?

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
