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.

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
