Panthers - Jaguars Gameday Thread

Stan, you should be well aware of how I feel about our offensive personnel.  There are too many plays that have happened today that failed as a result of horrible personnel.  The problem is, Shula doesn't call plays to our strengths or to cover up our weaknesses either.  There is no flow or rhythm.  It's like he doesn't think about anything but the immediate play and it puts us in horrible positions. 

I'm not going to say Shula is the best OC in the league, he's not.  But he's not the worst.  Honestly we were built offensively to run the ball and with our personnel we aren't good enough right now to do that.  And with the drops by the wide receivers, offensive linemen being pushed into Cam, we can't pass very well either.  That's the only 2 options we have run or pass.  

I also laugh when I see people commenting on play designs.  Truth is every team in the NFL has 90% of the same plays, they just have different names for them.

In the end it's not about Shula, it's about personnel and with the salary cap you can't have a great offense AND a great defense (unless you fuging draft like Nostradamus) so the coordinator with the short stick is going to catch the flak...and I get that, but it's just flawed thinking.

    • I'm more curious if he can recover from his injury and still be a starting caliber olineman
    • Does this mean only topics from within the last year or any topics with posts from the last year? i.e. if there are any old threads we feel should be kept around for whatever reasons, would a bump of that thread before the update ensure it's kept around in full or do the posts from more than a year old still disappear?
    • I'm more intrigued at him becoming our future LG. There were some people who thought he was better suited to be a guard in the NFL to begin with.  Then if Freeling ends up being a legit LT, moving Ickey to LG could give us an incredibly strong left side of our OL for years to come. Ickey has only played on the Left side his whole career, both in college and the NFL, so I just wonder if keeping him on the left side, even if shifting inside, would be better than putting him outside on the right side. Just hoping him growing up a Panthers fan will make him want to stay here and move positions than enter FA so he can stay at LT somewhere else, particularly since LT is the big money position on the OL, so he likely can get paid more by someone else to play LT than play LG or RT here for us.
