Is it really so hard to make offensive changes

[beastson]

To spread defenses out more. 4 receiver sets no Te. Empty-backfield 5 options with Greg as TE.

 

5 yard curl routes, quick out routes to the slot.

 

Get the ball out of Cam hands maximum of 3 secs on some plays

 

Eliminate the read-option and stop running Cam. Get back to power running with whoever we have as fullback. If our RB's break off a 10 yard run, dont pull them out (Stewart)

 

Get back to play-action with our tight ends

 

I feel like these are easy small changes. Not hard at all

With the oline not playing well, it won't mAtter what they play.

[SOJA]

we should just line up three lineman and try to install a completely new offense comprised entirely of screens and bombs 

[Lumps]

4 receivers? No TE? Empty backfield? 5 options?

Lol and who the hell is going to stop cam from being decapitated. We need two blockers per defender with this oline.

[Jmac]

You will see the same offense next game and the 7 after that.....no changes. Best you can hope for is a new OC next season with upgraded personal or they may do nothing with the OC and play the company line again "the players didn't execute". Nothing would surprise me anymore.

[PandaPancake]

They weren't running the play clock down last game.

[restNChrist]

1) No Huddle

 

2) No designed runs by Cam but let him scramble

 

3) Quick slants for TE's

 

4) Dump offs to RB's

 

5) Passes so quick we pretend we don't have a OL

An offense can be changed midway if the original mindset doesn't work.  It happened when the ravens fired Cam Cameron and they won a superbowl.  Before that, I remember multiple times when a team has changed philosophy midstream to major gains, in fact, the great coaches do it, even some of the poor ones do it too.  Remember when Miami switched and used the Wildcat the first time and went to the playoffs, that wasn't designed, it happened in like week 3 or 4 of that season.  Bellichik will often change an offense from one season to the next to not be predictable, heck, look at Dallas this year, they finally are officially a running team.  Why?  because that's what the personnel dictates.  So could it happen here?  Not a chance on gods green earth as long as Shula is still here, and to a lesser extent, rivera.  In EVERY one of those situations, it took coaches that are willing to be creative and think outside the box, and there is not a creative bone in a coach employed by the panthers right now.

you got me thinking...

 

I've mentioned this before.... we switched our mindset last year in game 3 against Giants by going for it on 4th more and being more aggressive on offense....

 

this combined with what you said and a new OC we can right this ship now

Getting the ball out in 3 secs will stop him from being decapitated. Offenses being doing this to us since Pittsburgh game

[KendrickPanther]

The only thing I can figure. They think it's easier to teach a guy to block than it is to learn route concepts. Which is why we go max protect and invite pressure and expect our guys to get open 20 yards down field.

[BeasonBeastingBacks]

Do we actually have a FB on the active roster?

Haven't we been using Swole Bonez instead?

That said I would like to see more of Brandon Williams instead of Dickson.

[AceBoogie]

Yea the problem is that we have to keep too many players in to block

The Ravens offense actually didn't get better after firing Cam Cameron. At least statistically.

They just got some confidence by winning at home against the Colts in first round of the playoffs and got on a roll.

After they fired Cameron they lost two of their last 3 games of the regular season.

The next season they went from a top 10 scoring offense to bottom 7.

We need a win or two to get our confidence up. That will probably do more for us than firing Shula right now.
