Offensive coordinator of the year

Mike Shula, Carolina: The Panthers don’t have the gaudy statistics of a New England, Arizona or Cincinnati. But they also don’t have a true No. 1 receiver either, and that hasn’t stopped Carolina from winning every game it has played. Shula has done a masterful job of creative play-calling and staying true to the offensive blueprint in Charlotte, which is built around Cam Newton’s dual-threat talents and a diverse, Jonathan Stewart-led running game. The Panthers know who they are on offense this season, and it’s working.

Norman, Rivera, and Short get kudos in the article as well.  But this one REALLY stuck out to me.

but huddle experts have been saying the opposite... at least until obvious punched them right in the face.  still, some may argue but goons are gonna goon.

i realized from the Deangelo TD run in SF back in 13 that Shula or the offense has come up with some ridiculously good runs.  it is just now where everything has come to fruition with elevated line play and Cam getting a hold of the QB position at a serious level

Just now, gofightwin said:

Didn't Rivera say today that Cam calls 70% of the plays now? 

No. That is not at all what was said. On 70% of the plays Shula sends out a formation and a couple of different plays and lets Cam read the defense and decide which play will work best against what he sees. Also, it was Shula that designed that offense for him and we are on an 11 game winning streak while using it.

    • This season only ends one way... We win this Sunday. Bryce is decent. We take back 1st place...   Only to then get our brakes blown off in the last two weeks.
    • Here's one of the most maddening things, that will be shown in full light over the next three weeks. The same people around here that called Darnold a bum and Mayfield a washed up over draft are also the ones saying Bryce is a catastrophe. Yeah, and I've been one who said Bryce wasn't big enough, brave enough or capable enough. I said back in the day that Darnold had a lot of fight in him and got shouted down. And on Mayfield, heck I didn't know, I just knew we had a very, very bad team that was run terribly. But I saw both of those guys go out there and resurrect their careers and be play-off bound since shaking the Carolina clay dust off their cleats. And we sat there and cat called their cars as they pulled out of the parking lot, laughing at what nobodies they were. Over the next three weeks, those two guys may just serve us sh!t sandwiches and then settle down to their just desserts. And then we'll probably let Bryce go off into the realm of other teams. And when that happens, will we see him coming back, better than before and we're left to re-sit this cycle all over again? Same naysayers, same results, same revolving carousel of ponies and pundits?  Will we end up looking like the Temu version of the San Diego Chargers back in the day watching Drew Brees come to fruition in the previously moribund Superdome while we whiff on a Manning pick just to be jilted for Phillip "Always a Bridesmaid" Rivers?
