Shula in the playoffs....


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

Shula's offenses have never scored their season average in the playoffs. He has averaged about a touchdown less come playoff time.

Over his career as an OC he has averaged about 10 points a playoff game, also the Panthers score from last year.

Will Shula finally put together a solid playoff offensive showing today? Will be a major step in the right direction and may save his job.

If we get to a 3rd or 4th and 1 I really hope we just let Cam keep it up the middle. Tom Brady has made a career off converting those no reason for us to not let Cam get that 1st down or touchdown. Seems like Shula just gets to cocky with the "power run" philosophy and it always screws us.

No more 3rd and 1 Bersin out routes?!?!

Let's hope everyone has a big game on offense including the coaches. On a day like today though 14 points could win it. We have to shut them down so that our offense can get plenty of opportunities. Points may be tough to get. I can't see Arizona getting a bunch unless we make mistakes or give up big plays. And if we do, do we deserve to win? We need to be aggressive on defense and cause our own turnovers. Pressure their offense just as much as they pressure us. I like our run game with Shula to Arizona's run game with Arians. Stewart is a big plus.

Fwiw, historically speaking most teams don't score their season averages in the playoffs.  At least they don't until they get to the Superbowl and play Denver.

 

Case in point, both of Seattle's playoff games last year were below their season average (although only by a point or two), until the got to the Superbowl and faced Denver.  :)

 

SF didn't reach its season average in last years playoffs either.  Neither did Denver.  In fact, I believe Denver was 15 to 20 below its season average in the playoffs last year.  When you face better teams, that is what happens.

In fairness...we should of scored more last year. We got pushed around physically at 1 yard line. I put that on the players

    • One thing I didn’t consider is how thin this draft is at quarterback. That’s going to drive up the market for backups and borderline starters like Willis, Jones, and Jameis Winston. Because of that, we’ll most likely be priced out of the market for this tier of backup. 
    • We've already beat the #1 seed twice, why not one more? (Packers and Rams were both #1 seed at the time we played)
    • My determination has come down to this. Based on recent QB history, has Bryce's improvement warranted 50m per season? Lamar is the only original team QB to play on his 5th year. The others took major deals at the end of the 3rd, before or just after the option was signed. Chances are, we're getting asked for the same.  I haven't rooted for Bryce to fail. I've rooted for him to succeed so big that them signing that extension would give me no worries about our future at QB at all. We haven't seen that level of play consistently that this year. We haven't seen it in the past 6 games.  We're about to be at a threshold with Bryce and I worry about what this front office will do. We have a history of bad decision making and Morgan has been part of that group making those decisions. I don't want Carolina in the same boat Arizona and Miami are right now. It has nothing to with being right. It has to do with wanting to win for more than a single season. We've never had back to back winning seasons. Faith in their abilities is not warranted at this point.
