No Huddle

[17+89=6]

Now, I know it was at the end of the half and only for one drive, but Jake's limited success came while running a high tempo offense. It is becoming slightly more popular in the NFL. That being said, do you guys think a no huddle offense might work in Carolina?

That would just give Jake more time to make mistakes.

that is jake's best chance to not suck, imo (that is if he is going to be on the field and throwing).

they'll never do it but it's the best thing to do if you are intent on keeping him playing.

The faster you pace your offense, the quicker they're off the field. Even if they're having success, drives last 2 or 3 minutes. I don't trust the defense enough to run any system where we don't control the clock.

No huddle would be an excellent option. At this point, any of Davidson's playcalls would be quite obvious based on the formation we line up in. We are not a complex offense but if we ran hurry up more often during the games it would slow down the blitz and give our guys a chance to call their own plays which can more times than not be better than anything Davidson draws up.

Too bad our defense would probably screw us in the long run if we did this consistently.

problem is if we do that, we don't eat up as much clock as Fox wants to, which means our Defense gets back on field more often.

I agree with shortened drives, but if you are still running the ball, the drives can last. I just think its the best way to keep the defense off balance and hopefully give Jake any advantage we can give him.

i'm hearing it called "sugar huddle" and "huddle at the line" a lot on sirius. more like what Peyton Manning does. giving the D a good look, and making adjustments based on what is being shown. i say give it a shot. points earned quick are the same as points earned slow in the end.

I wonder how much time NO ate up yesterday on their long the longest drive.

[Darth Biscuit]

Hmmm... eat time or score points? I think I'll take the points and let the defense worry about the time...
