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.

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
