shula reveals how much freedom newton has to audible...


Recommended Posts

Shula on gameday

"alright Cam....You can audible between running Williams up the gut or totally fool these clowns and run the fake screen then throw a screen to the other side play"

"Cam, you blew it. That play didn't work. Maybe next week we will give you another shot at decision making"

"DEANGELO!! What are you doing on the sideline. Get back in the game, I finally got a good one for you"

Personally if my qb isn't able to audible near 100% of the time, I'm looking for another qb who I trust more

what would make you think that an OC whose entire history of playcalling at every level and in every job he has been the primary playcaller has been about ball CONTROL and clock CONTROL would allow his QB to have control over anything more than a minutiae of the game?

you have a QB who is one of the best in the league at improvising (esp. when healthy) and a QB who is risk averse and needs to have everything at a slow and controlled pace. the coach calls the shots. who do you think is going to have his way?

yes, cam has an inability audible, but the reason for that isn't because cam doesn't know how, it's because he isn't allowed.

I didn't mean that against cam at all. It was more along the lines of "what the hell are the coaches thinking"

I wish there were stats on % of scoring drives having audibles vs. not. Because from my memory just about every single scoring drive, FG or TD, for the past month have come in the no huddle with Cam audibling at the line.

 

the pattern seems to be like this:

 

-run the no huddle and tear ass between the 20s

-shula slams on the brakes in the red zone and has cam huddle again

-drive stalls, field goal

    • I hope you understand that this Anti Bryce thing as you call it is really a pro Panthers thing. I think I can safely use we. We want the best for the Panthers.  As far as this other post saying ‘Anti’ Bryce people do misinformation.. you mean like going all in on “Renfro should have caught” that poorly thrown ball? I guess it was week 1. And calling it a drop. Comical btw.  I wonder, did you call that out or let it slide because it aligned with your agenda? 
    • These are great posts with the comparisons and the numbers.   I haven’t lookyat Smity’s numbers since probably the first time he was on the ballot.  But if you watched every week you know what he is. Whatever his yardage or targets numbers were.  He was fuging dominant. I have watched since the AFL days and seen who there is to see. There are many great WRs over the years. GREAT WRs. Smitty is up there in the game of football. 
    • Smith is clear cut HOF if you judge what he did by reception. Fitzgerald was a stat padder.    The most Steve Smith was ever targeted in his career was in 2005 (150 targets). The same year he wins the triple crown.    Larry Fitzgerald was targeted more than 150 times over 9 separate seasons. Not once eclipsing 1500 yards in a season.    The over glazing of Larry Fitzgerald going around is way over blown. ARZ was top 10 in passing attempts nearly his entire prime. Steve Smith and Andre Johnson had it far worse and would have surpassed his #s in the same situation.
