Does the injury to KB give Shula another free pass this season?

Fearing that this will be the case. I agree that Shula is garbage but in reality what can he do? Our receiving core is now worse than it was before Week 1 last season and Oher and Remmers are still pretty suspect on the outside.  Olsen is elite and Cam is one of the most dangerous QBs in the league, but outside of the huge assumption that Stewart stays healthy is this an offense set up for failure regardless of who the OC is?

I hope not, but probably.

Shula is a joke.  In his only other stint as an NFL OC, the Bucs never ranked higher than 22nd in offense under him.  When Alabama for some reason hired him as their head coach, he barely broke .500 in 4 seasons there.  At Alabama.  Struggled to break .500.  AT ALABAMA.

You can give this guy everything and he'll still fail.  Maybe he's a good QB coach or some other type of assistant, but when you give him real responsibility, he's a proven failure.

Sorry, but it's true.

Why do people keep saying poo like this like it is a fact? We didn't know how KB was gonna play last year if I recall... Yeah, he ended up playing well, if you look at the numbers (although I dare say that half of his yards and TD's seemed to come on the tail end of blowout losses, FLAME ON!) Yeah, he was primed to have a good season THIS year, but why compare it to last year? We didn't have Ginn last year, Brown has a year under his belt now, and we brought in some guys that might actually have a little to show. Cam is healthy, Stew might have something to prove, and we have the best LB corps in the league. The wheels aren't off the wagon just yet.

Who thinks that Shula got a pass last year or even in 2013?  He didnt.  He had a very efficient effective offensive attack in 2013 and we went 12-4.  It isnt as if we sucked since he has been here.  Our record while he is OC is 19-12-1 which matches our best 2 year record in our franchise.  Last year the story was a fruit basket turnover on offense, the worst receiving corps in the league, a hurt quarterback, a poor offensive line and running backs who couldn't stay healthy.  And yet we were still more efficient than we should have been given the problems.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
