Don't hold your breath for more no huddle offense...

Like I said after the last two losses, pre-snap was Cam's main problem. When you switch to the no huddle, you eliminate those issues that he had with dragging/lagging and sucking the energy out of his teammates which causes the line to block worse and the receivers and running backs to come out of the gate slower.

 

Cam's state of mind changes completely when he's in the no huddle. He is forced to approach the next play with the same energy that he should even when they aren't in no huddle. This is something he needs to learn. Peyton Manning, Andrew Luck, and even Derrick Anderson are crisp, no wasted time, business-like, but highly energetic out of the huddle. Cam "swags" out of it, and he ends up moving too slow until the team loses energy.

 

No huddle energizes him, which energizes the whole play.

 

Once he learns how to transfer the same mindset to when they aren't in no huddle, he'll be one of the top 5 QBs in the league. Both ESPN articles about no huddle simply support what I was telling you all about how Cam affects the rest of the team "before the snap"

 

SPEED UP, INCREASE YOUR ENERGY.

 

No huddle requires him to, but he should always be that focused and sharp. IT'S. ALL. ABOUT. THE. QB'S. MINDSET before the ball is snapped.

From the article...

 

"They never huddled," Shula said on Monday. "He never called a play at the line of scrimmage. I don't know if he ever had a snap count. They had all those signs up. He just looked over and the rest of the team looked over, got the signal, then he lifted his leg and got the ball."

Shula has no plans to go to that extreme. He still believes Newton is an effective weapon under center even though his statistics on Sunday said he was better in the no huddle.

"I think he's good at both," Shula said.

But Shula likes what the no huddle offers in terms of getting Newton and his young offensive line into a rhythm. He said the way Carolina runs it is not contrary to his offensive philosophy built around a balanced mix of run and pass while taking time off the clock.

 

That indicates we won't see it all the time (we're not going K-Gun) but it'll definitely still be used.

 

Gantt talks about it being used as a change of pace (link) which is honestly what it's intended to be.

 

But offensive coordinator Mike Shula said the key is finding the right balance.

“The bottom line, you have to have a good mix,” Shula said. “I don’t think you want to go to it the whole game. If we weren’t good at it, we probably wouldn’t be doing it at all. Each week you decide if and how much you want to use it. I don’t think we’ll ever just do it the whole game.

“If we thought there was a huge difference, yeah, we’d be doing it 100 percent. But like I said, it’s good to have balance.”

You may be on to something, but i think it's the feng shui and stadium music. Also the jersey material. We need something cheap and high quailty.

I'm curious as to why people like you is in bold?

 

Because I wanted you to focus on it. Obviously, it worked. 

 

Oh, and by the way, one of the NFL analyst guests on PrimetimeWFNZ today came on and said exactly the same thing about how important the QB is before the snap, and how Peyton Manning is the best in the league in that part of the game.

 

Again, just because people like you don't get it, doesn't mean it isn't true.

Don't put too much stock in to DN and his articles.

 

 

Shula has run the no huddle throughout his play calling career. The Bucs did it on a good number of occasions. You don't become a NFL OC without knowing how to run a hurry up no huddle offense.

 

 

Basically, DN does a good interview, but football knowledge is not his strong suit. Proceed with caution.

It goes back to my original point that Shula wants to be as cautious and basic as the game situation will allow him to be, regardless of time of game, available personnel, or team strengths if this year is any indication.

 

Down two scores and staring a third straight blowout in the face? Open up the offense. Score 2 quick TDs.

 

Tie game? Iso up the middle to fourth string RBs. 

 

He's an incompetent twat.

Just keep winning. We have a formula that seems to be working over last 20+ games. Stick to it. Fug the haters

 

this is dumb. The only reason we won on sunday is cutler air mailed a pass to decoud and forte fumbled.

 

if your winning gameplan is not get first downs in the fourth quarter and hope for two turnovers then your gameplan is poo

 

also last year has absolutely nothing to do with this year. we've lost 2 of the past 3. 

 

ARBITRARY STARTING POINTS

My starting point was since Shula took over as OC.

Wasn't arbitrary

An NFL analyst came on and said that Cam needs to swag out of the huddle and up to the line?

    • In my opinion Fitterer was probably right about not paying McCaffrey. Now not wanting to "pay RBs" in my opinion isn't something you want to set in stone, to me it all comes down to the individual.
    • Maybe I'm just not understanding, but everywhere that I have read says that signing bonuses go against the cap prorated by as much as five years. The following example uses Andrew Luck's rookie contract as an example. "Take Andrew Luck, the first overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft. Luck signed a four-year contract with the Colts worth $22.1 million and included a $14.5 million signing bonus. Rather than a $14.5 million cap hit in 2012, the Colts spread out his signing bonus over the life of his contract. The hit against the cap would be $3.625 million per year over four years instead of a direct cap hit of $14.5 million directly in 2012. This gave the Colts more leverage and cap flexibility in signing other players." https://www.the33rdteam.com/nfl-signing-bonuses-explained/ I don't know why some of you think that signing bonuses aren't counted against the cap over the length of the contract, but whatever.   "The bonus with a signing is usually the most garish aspect of a rookie contract. Bonus is the immediate cash players receive when they ink a deal. It factors into the cap, but only for the whole contract duration, in terms of salary cap calculations. In the case of Bryce Young’s $24.6 million signing bonus, that’s prorated to approximately $6.15 million per season over a four-year deal. This format allows teams to handle the cap and provides rookies with some short-term fiscal stability, which is important given the high injury risk in this league." https://collegefootballnetwork.com/how-rookie-contracts-work-in-the-nfl/ I understand how signing bonuses can be a useful tool in order to manage the cap, and as one of the article suggests, signing bonuses may become important if you have a tight cap, but the bill is always going to come due. I'm not necessarily referring to you Tuka, but it seems to me that others simply don't want to understand that fact which is why they're reacting to what I'm saying negatively. How odd. In any event, I have a better general understanding of why signing bonuses are used now, and it's generally to fit salaries under the cap. Surely players, whether they be rookies or not, love a signing bonus because they get a good portion of their money up front. This in turn gives them more security and probably amounts to tax benefits as well. I also understand why teams would not want to use signing bonuses, particularly for players or draftees who have a higher probability of being gone before a contract even ends.
