  1. 1. Will we go out no-huddle, up tempo on our first possession next week?

    • Yes, Shula and Ron, desperate to save their jobs, will let Cam be Cam

    • No, Shula gonna Shula

Do we go no huddle on our first drive next week?  Last week was the first time I can remember we went no huddle on our opening drive under Shula, and the results were as impressive as everyone on here thought they would be (the huddle for OC in 2015?).

 

IMO whether or not we do this is really going to be the key in determining whether our offense has actually turned a corner or not.

Here's what I think will happen:

 

1st and 10: obligatory d will shuffle behind turner and kalil actually goes for 8 yards

2nd and 2: all receivers run 20 yard curls/outs, except for Olsen and KB, who run 12 and 15 yard in routes, respectively, so they end up in the same spot and the Bucs can cover both with 1 linebacker.  Cam attempts to scramble when pressured and is sacked.

3rd and 12: that dumb fake screen to Olsen where Cam spins, then throws to Tolbert. 3 yard pickup.

    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
