Are we a passing offense?

It is no surprise that our running game has not been working, mainly because it has been that way for the past few seasons. When you look at the team its clear that our biggest offensive weapons obviously Cam, then Kelvin Benjamin and last but not least Greg Olsen. Also so far this season Panther's are ranked 10th in passing yards with 259 yds per game and a embarrassing running production of 72 yds per game and ranked 29th in the league this season . So with that in mind are the Panthers turning into or are they currently passing offense?

Now that Cam is not running all over the yard, we have a clearer picture of our rushing ability.  I got tired of hearing Rivera say all offseason how effective our rushing was when the stats were skewed by our all-purpose QB.  Now the chickens are coming home to roost.

 

The thing is, I don't know what comes first, the chicken or the bad O-line.

So the Panthers struggle to run the ball. Yet they keep trying to run the first half of games and fail. The Panthers have a TE and WR that are match up nightmares for teams that cannot stop them. The QBs are playing very well. Yet they do not target Olsen and Benjamin early in games.

How about the Panthers play to their strengths instead of their weaknesses on offense? That is an idea. I am of the belief you keep hitting them with what works until they stop it.

So, time to toss the ball around the yard to Olsen and Benjamin from the first drive. Do that and the running lanes will open.

We are a 3 and out offense.

 

Seriously though....if we are gonna pass 35 times a game, we need to throw deep at least 5 of those 35 attempts.  We just don't stretch the field enough, something I just don't understand with KB on the roster.  Stafford throws it up to CJ and Dalton throws it up to Green...why in the heck don't we throw it up to KB and let him make a play.  His size is so intimidating that even if he cannot make the catch, PI will surly be called a couple of times.

The problem is that we don't have an OL.  If we're going to be a pass heavy team, then we have to alter the play calling to get the ball out fast.  When we do, we have success.  But when Shula dials up his typical slow developing stuff, the OL simply can't hold up, especially since we can't establish any run game to be able to give the pass rush pause with play action.  Shula's play calling is predicated on a balanced offense which we don't have.  If we could establish a legit running game, his passing play calls may stand a chance.  But if you're wanting to run slow developing stuff behind a porous OL without establishing the running game, you're trying to get your QB killed.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Speaking of false premises, I literally said “his rookie year” in my posts and you are arguing over something said a week ago as if that is what I was referring to. I tried to stop talking to you since you admitted yourself it’s pointless, but you just can’t stop running your mouth and bullshitting for some reason. We get it, you think you’re smart. Let me know when you’ve searched all the threads from 2023. I really don’t care enough to do it, but if you want to call me obtuse and all this stupid poo then you should put your money where your mouth is and prove it instead of just running off at the mouth. I wasn’t in here making anything personal or specific to you or anybody else, the only name I mentioned was MRenshaw who is a clear and known troll, but you seem to have taken it personally, so maybe you’re part of the problem.

      He is the president of the Huddle TMac fan club so he is a bit oversensitized to something that isn't even remotely offensive in the slightest. I don't really like when people call me by my last name but in various work settings, it happens all the time. I don't get my panties in a bunch over it.

      This fanbase has called bryce every disrespectful name in the book let alone other people on the huddle. Who cares what you call him as long as it isn’t disrespectful. You act like he’s gonna log in to the huddle and get his feelings hurt.
