The mastermind play calling of Shula


Ruff

Recommended Posts

@BobbyRosinski: Watching some more Panthers. Biggest play of game was 1st & 10 Car at Seattle 41 with 7:40 left in the 3rd. Panthers down 14-10

@BobbyRosinski: Newton goes to pass and only WR on field is Bersin. Really Brenton Bersin. Cam ends up getting sacked. Got Shula'd

He calls the plays after seeing the personnel on the field.

"Let me see... I only see Bersin out there... Power Route to Bersin!"

What? Haha no he doesn't. He controls everyone that goes on the field for each offensive play unless directly overruled by Rivera.

What you describe would be mindnumblingly retarded. Why would you have a setup where a coach had to call a play based on the players put onto the field by a completely different coach?

Edit: Positional coaches also have some input but ultimately it's Shula's decision.

Or being 1st and 10 it was a run play that Newton checked to a pass. Use your brain.

 

Well according to Rivera, Newton has one or two "Shula Approved" audible options when allowed. Assuming this was the case, the hot route to stud receiver Bersin was the "check" that Shula allowed Newton to switch to from the favored run call. In either case, it's complete garbage. 

 

Good job making no point.

Broken plays happen. They likely happen due to the QB.

    • Considering you previously struggled to understand BTT despite it being explained in a video, write-up, and multiple replies, I get why this might be a little too complex for you. Happy to clarify again! Just let me know which part tripped you up this time. 😉
    • And, honestly, there's only so much you can attempt to do in the draft. And every draft pick is a roll of the dice. But that's where grabbing a ton of UDFAs, and targeting the best, makes a big difference. Sure, their individual chances of getting a hit here is less, but that shotgun pattern might just hit something.  Right now, we need bulk, partly to rebuild and partly to dilute the deep level of stank that has developed on this team in the last six years. If we're going to rebuild a culture built around culture, accountability and winning, then these UDFAs we bring in each season have to be the wash water that gets out that leftover dirt.  Canales seems to be a smart, culture-first, build up the good ones kind of guy. I like that and I hope he can keep it going here. But he was working against a locker room that had been taught to lose and taught to distrust or ignore coaches. He's got his work cut out for him, still. He does seem to have it moving in the right direction and that's something I was pretty amazed with by the end of last season.  
    • The most telling sign, IMO, of a team on the upward swing is who we lost in the off-season. Who left that even saw the field? Woods, Clowney, Sanders, & Hekker. OK...no big deal. Clowney is the only 1 that I raised an eyebrow over and I get that it was a money decision. No need to pay him over $7M to take snaps from our draft picks when he was just OK last year.
