Time To Face It, This Is the Greatest Offense In Panthers History.

Coming into this season we had the same rhetoric as always. Cam has no weapons, Cam has no offensive line, and Cam has Mike Shula. At some point we have to face the music and there no better time than in Nashville. That Titans defense was good, one of the best we've played. We broke them. They had nothing in the 4th quarter. We put up 27 in an ugly game. We have not been held under 20 points this season.

 

Here is a couple quick facts.

-Through 8 games the 2015 Panthers had outscored the 2010 Panthers by 32 points.

-Through 9 games the Panthers have outscored the 2001 Panthers by 2 points.

-At 28.3 ppg this 2015 Team is the most productive in our 21 year history.

-In 1999 we averaged 26.2 ppg, the best full season of scoring in our history.

-We have 29 touchdowns through 9 games, that is more than full seasons from the 1997, 2001, 2006, 2007, and 2010 teams. We can pass several more teams vs. the Redskins. 

 

And we keep hearing our offense is ugly and not explosive. It's unorthodox but Greg Olsen is a thing of beauty. Ted Ginn is a fun player to watch. Cam is brilliant and Stewart is the Running Back every franchise wishes they had. Devin Funchess is starting to look like a stud as well. At some point we can't ignore what is right in front of us. This offense is good.

People are going to need new material. It's always "Panthers don't have enough weapons to makea strong playoff push" or "Panthers win with their defense" because offense is doing their part and WAY more. We have the #1 rushing game and #4 in scoring, can't use that bullsh*t narrative anymore.

Oh,Yea, me and you see eye to eye on that one! 

We not only shattering Panther records but now Cam is 3rd in NFL history in rushing TD's.  Only behind Jack Kemp with 40 and 1st Steve Young 43 TD's.  Them two guys not playing much now days so he will more than likely own that record in next few games.

Can't win them all if you don't win the first 9!!!!!!!!!  We Qualify!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

With the talk about Shula getting interest from the hurricanes, He almost cost us the game today, Shula wanted to impress his potential new employers and got cute.

We played Shula Ball got a lot of the game and we are lucky it didnt bite us in the ass.

Shula himself already shot that speculation down.

      Who will blow it Sunday?

      BPA comes with the caveat of positional value and roster need included. Never let the latter two completely overwhelm the first, however. Our FO seems to lean heavily into "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE POTENTIALZ!!!" as a fourth category and often it seems as the #1 overall pursuit. With as many needs as this roster has, I am not going to get upset over a real roster upgrade at WR versus some reach at EDGE or whatever other extreme needs we have. Overall, I want to see the roster get better. There is far, far, FAR more than one offseason of work left to get this roster into the top 10-12 in the NFL. That should be the goal.

      Passer Rating Differential: A Key to predicting a teams playoff and championship potential.

      I would say we are more likely to get smoked by Tampa, blast Seattle and then perplexingly lose to Tampa again.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      In general, Dave Canales tends to target his TE's the least frequently of any position group(WR/RB/TE) during his three years of running an NFL offense.  However, if you notice this percentage has crept up over time. 2025 is the first year that TE has eclipsed RB in target percentage. Production has also gone up in 2025. This is a percentage of total output in each category. Canales has always used a very TE heavy offense. In fact, on average his offensive formations are 2 or 3 TE sets roughly 80% of all offensive formations. So, the question may be, with this uptick in total TE output, could an elite or top tier TE make a significant impact? I believe there is some evidence this may be the case. Here are a look at TE snaps and Cade Otten specifically. These are the snap percentages for all rostered TE's in every Dave Canales offense. The bolded cell is Cade Otten's whopping 96.46% of total snap counts in the single year he was in the Dave Canales offense in Tampa. This was overwhelmingly his career high. His production was higher with less utilization in 2024, however.    In conclusion, while I don't anticipate ever seeing a top 5 producing/Pro Bowl caliber TE performance in a Dave Canales offense, there does appear to be some evidence that an actual upgrade in our TE room would actually lead to increasing overall offensive efficiency. I think Otten's utilization rate does indicate that the splitting of time between our relatively even TE group would cede significant snaps if a far superior option were available. I believe this is an area we could(and should have this past offseason/draft) made a more concerted effort to get a dynamic TE threat, after the apparent failure that J. Sanders appears to have been.
