Sideline Passes/Lack of Check down


Rubi

Recommended Posts

Something I've always noticed with Shula is that he calls for a lot of out patterns towards the sidelines. His favorites being the 15 and 20 yard outs....when we only need 6-7 yards for a first down.

This type of pass leaves Cam very little margin for error. It takes almost a perfect pass to complete and gives the receiver no room to make any type of YAC. The windows are so small to fit the ball into. And most of the time it sails on Cam.

I feel like Cam's best passes come when we attack the seams. There's a lot more space and bigger windows to work with.

Another thing that drives me nuts is we never have plays with a built in check down to a RB. There's no safety valve to bail the offense out in case the vertical routes are covered. This is basic stuff that Shula/Rivera can't figure out.

Serious coaching staff decisions need to be made at seasons end

as far as the preference towards out routes, remember what his offensive philosophy is. The Panthers need to run the ball, and only pass when it's been set up by the run. Passes are dangerous. Throws to the sideline minimize danger. Throws over the middle tend to be easier to intercept.

 

that's the way the man thinks. Like he's his dad. In the 1970s.

Don evolved his offense a poo ton once he got Marino though.

 

He needs to smack Mike's poo at the Thanksgiving table.

The thing is his philosophy sucks.

    • Smith-Wade for me. He has the path to some decent hefty snaps in Evero’s scheme. He held his own last year and improved as he continued to get snaps— If he makes some strides, could be a very capable nickel.  I agree with Sanders. Bryce had some trust in him that final Falcons game post crazy head-stand.  Bryce looked for him a lot that final game and made some critical catches to get us the W. Seems he’s put in major work so I’m hopeful about him.  Wallace will have an offseason under his belt. I like him a lot, was higher graded than most remember in his draft (I.e Brugler had him LB3/70 overall) but he isn’t as cerebral of an LB as we’re used to. I think he could thrive if we get D captain/film-junky type next to him— because right now that’s Jewell.  Still a bit cautious but love the talent. Rozeboom may snag some playing time from him if he’s still working out the kinks.
    • Didnt Canales already say starters are playing in the pre season? either way extra reps dont hurt but im not one of those people that think playing in the pre season would have saved Bryce from an awful start.
    • very helpful.  I read back in this thread where they might try Jarvis at C--I thought he and Aho had good chemistry, however.  Nonetheless, he could expand his value there, and now we have a guy who can play jarvis' spot.  Freddie is a pro, no doubt--and as little as I know about the inner workings of strategy and positions, I could tell Burns was burning us at times.  I figured he'd retire and I was looking forward to it.  FWIW, they have Jarvis listed as a C on the 2025-26 roster.
