Cam thrives in the No huddle

Nice article I just found. Exactly how I was feeling watching the game yesterday. We have to let Cam go and do his thing.

Cam Newton, Panthers thrive in no-huddle offense http://es.pn/1Ekatue -via SportsCenter http://es.pn/scappandroid

i think we should start games running the no huddle and letting Cam basically call his own plays. then as we build a lead, slow down the pace and let our defense rest. this hinges on the defense playing lights out in the first half. if that cant happen, then the no huddle might do more harm than good. one thing is for sure... they need to take the reigns off of Cam. the kid needs to be able to call his own plays and needs to be able to run the ball when he feels like it

We can't always do it because it puts more plays and minutes on our defense. Time of possession was 32min to 27min. We have to win time of possession a lot with the type of team we have.

 

yes and no. Just because we run the no huddle doesn't mean we can't run the clock down a few times in a drive as Cam audibles at the line a-la Peyton Manning.

''The no-huddle offense has been our edge,'' said Newton

 

''He's pretty good at it,'' Olsen said. ''It's been good for us this year. Sometimes certain situations dictate that you can't stay in it, but when we've done it we've been pretty successful. When we need a spark we can go to it. And it seems like it does spark us.'' Greg Olsen

 

"We rediscovered a lot of things," head coach Ron Rivera said. "That was probably the best part." Rivera

 

It's sounds like everybody is getting on board with this no huddle. Obviously, you can't do it all game, but this could be our thing. HOw many times have people on this board say that Cam thrives in the no huddle up tempo offense? The no huddle seems to be trending upwards, so hopefully we do it more this year. Cam thrives in it and it seems to fit our whole offense.

Also, a lot of people think no huddle, and automatically assume "fast paced" offense.  That's not the case, unless you specifically make it the case, which we don't.

Shula's offenses have always had a tough time either finding or keeping a rhythm. Maybe giving Cam a number of plays to run and just letting him go with it is the way to go. Sure did seem that way yesteday, huh?

My friend and I were discussing this during the game yesterday.  Seems like every time it's put in Cam's hands, something good happens.  He finds a lot of success running the no huddle, playing the game the way he sees it on the field.  He's a much smarter QB than he gets credit for.

    • Purdy only passed for 127 yards week 18 and then only passed for 108 yards in the playoffs. In those two games he had 0 TD's and 2 INT's and a fumble. Mayes in the Superbowl had a total of 63 yards with 0 TDS at the 13 minute mark in the fourth quarter. He only had success when the Seahawks went into prevent defense. Philip Rivers only had 127 total yards in week 15. Boomer with the Vikings had 126 yards and 4 INTS in week 13. Cousins had 167 yrds week 14 and while it was over 150 yards, he also had 2 INTs with 0 TDs. Yeah Young didn't have a good game but neither did any of these other QBs. And while he had the lowest yardage, he was the only other QB that at least had a TD - Philips had the other.
    • He has to have a great year not a great few games...probably gonna have to finish with a winning record too for the first time as well. Front office has all the leverage, havent got much on the return for trading up in the draft no matter what bryce fans want to say. They have no reason to offer an extension right now. All the talk about his personality is just deflection off the talk about money. You can be the nicest guy in the world, it doesnt win games or make you a top 10 QB. They know that, spending all that money on the O line and drafting multiple offensive players in the first round of past drafts says a QB should have better production than what we have seen so far. We have to lean on a run game more to be productive in games rather than a qb we traded up to no.1 for. You can easily draft a more talented QB on a cheaper contract and get the same results bryce has given you so far. Thats the truth.
    • I will go out on a limb and say this was the biggest win since 06.
