Greg Olsen on Cam Newton

[Anybodyhome]

There's also this:

"He helped make offensive coordinator Mike Shula, who has been criticized for his play-calling throughout the six-game losing streak, look brilliant."

Shula's playcalling has been horrible for more than just the last 6 games.

[WhoAmI?]

Hmmmm...... there's something behind that. Sorry people, I like stirring things up. Seriously though, it has been obvious Olsen has been frustrated (as has been everybody on the team) with the playcalling all season. I think it was a shot at Shula in the most non bashing way. Maybe they finally let Cam control a big % of the offense because I did see Cam call a lot of audibles at the line and also saw him full of energy BEFORE the snap as well (which is something I never saw this year or even last). I also wonder if they allowed Cam to go no huddle when he wanted to too.

when he's in control? as in maybe Shula wasn't calling plays most of the game? I'll take that.

First half we were playing fast with Cam having the ability to audible to other plays at the line oof scrimmage.

If you are going to go heavy with read option plays you have to play with pace and audible at LOS.

So no surprise we were more successful running the read option yesterday

I think it was a surprise to Mikey. If not, then that's even worse.

[The Huddler]

I think some of you are underestimating the tension between the players and coaches. There has been visible frustration from Olsen about our play calling and clock management.

I think this is a shot at shula. This has "I told you so" written all over this

There should be a rule against using "mike shula" and "brillant" in the same post.

A brilliant hot steaming poo that helps you climb back into an old pair of pants..

Can't deny what Greg tweeted.  Cam is as good as there is when he has control.

[King Schhit]

I want to think that shula would learn from this going forward. But that wouldn't be smart of me.

And alas, lies Newton's frustration and not always playing up to his potential this year.

 

Besides injuries and coaching issues; both he and the rest of the offense appear discontent with this Head coach and OC.

Exactly.

I loved what the Panthers did yesterday.  

 

We need to temper a bit that it was against an atrocious Saints defense.

 

We can also look back at Rivera's decision to not go for it against Atlanta and that field goal as the turning point of the season with no doubt.

 

Nohting good ever comes from constantly shrinking away from an opportunity when it presents its.

[FootballMaestro]

Exactly.

 

Thank you for understanding/putting up with my typos.

If you didn't come away from that game thinking that Cam was the orchestrator for the most part then their is no hope for you. We haven't seen him directing at the line of scrimmage like that since that beautiful run last year.
