At one point weren't we in the bottom of the league in red zone scoring percentage heading into the end of 2014?

I recall a clear decline for quite awhile there.

The improvement that followed had a lot to do with a better run game, but Shula also successfully managed to get his head out of his ass for just about the entire 2015 season. That is until he decided to save his "Teddy Ginn behind center!!!" play for the fuging Super Bowl.

And also because, for the first time since Cam left college, he was 100% healthy.

Hard to believe he was playing on a bum ankle/cracked ribs/cracked vertebrae for pretty much his entire first 4 years in the league.

Great thread as usual! July is the month were I watch all of the previous season's games again, and although I always look forward to it, this year especially so. I cant watch the last game of the season though, propably never will, but since its always better to watch games were we end up with a W, this July should especially be a good one with the season the Panthers had. Will definitely keep these stats in my mind when watching =)

I imagine you're not the only one who'll be doing that in July.  It would be fun to have a pinned thread where people post the things they notice while rewatching the games this next month.

We had the best year weve ever had last year. In every statistical category. If we can do atleast 3/4 of that next year we still land 12-4. KB being back is amazing but Josh and the youth of our dbs is going to really give us the answer to this season.

Hey all, I probably should have mentioned this up top, but given that I'll be contributing on the Huddle home page from time to time, I've just this week created a Twitter account I can use for Panthers stuff.

Yes, I spend most of each year in Africa working on relief & development programs.  The lack of opportunities for social activities where I live and work has a lot to do with how much time I've been spending on the Huddle in the past 12 months...!

I don't know how often I'll tweet, but it would be fun if I can regularly send out a "Panthers Stat of the Day" or something...  I've done that both yesterday & today, but I doubt it will be a daily thing.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      I had started typing my post hours ago and didn’t finish it and just came back to finish it, posted it, then saw yours and saw we were pretty much saying the same thing - even the games that stick out to us most.  I don’t think a lot of people remember that SF playoff game, but I felt like I had just got mugged in broad daylight.  I remember them calling Mitchell for unnecessary roughness, and then I remember watching Boldin take a super late cheap shot, dead in front of the ref and then showing him watching the whole thing in replay…  the refs let them have a fuging field day and didn’t do jack poo, but if we so much as breathed the wrong way it was fuging 15 yards.  Each team playing under two completely different sets of rules.  poo hurt.  I was enraged.  I’ve never went back to watch either that game or SB50 and never will.  fuging robbery.

      I’ve said it a million times since, but it’s impossible to keep them from affecting the game.  In SB50, they literally took the game from us, and they did it early.  Cotchery’s no-catch?  The miraculous amount of times we converted for a first down only to have it suddenly called back make it a 3rd down and 15+ against the best defense in the league that specialized in rushing the passer and man coverage on the back end?  And you do that enough times, you kill the morale and confidence of the team you’re doing it against.  It’s telling the one team “you can do whatever with impunity” and the other “you can’t do whatever they’re allowed to do.”  It changes the aggression level.  It essentially neuters one team and allows the other to do whatever the fug they want.  Imagine you call the police for help and they get there and tell you to sit still while the other party beats the poo out of you and you can’t defend yourself.  That’s what the officials do.  There is no way to avoid them affecting the game.  And more often than not, it’s the most subjective calls they use to do so.  Even in SB50…  you saw the Broncos commit more egregious penalties than anything we did, and barely any of it was called.  Their OL was holding all fuging game and the refs did nothing.  We already had our work cut out for us against two future HOF edge rushers and the refs played to their advantage with that.  From what I remember, both Oher and Remmers were called for holding at various times and their hands were in the INSIDE of the defender.  It was garbage, but all by design. Also, if there is any video of it anywhere, go look at what the refs did against us back in 2013 against SF.  The fix was in there too.  They stepped in early and often and ensured we knew we were not allowed to play with the same aggression or intensity SF was.  It was disgusting as well. at this point, I hope Vince McMahon, errr, I mean Goodell just finally scripts us to win it, because this poo is not won via competition or off merit.

      You can go back to the New York Knicks somehow getting Patrick Ewing.  I saw a story where they place the New York Knick card in the freezer right before the drawing.  It was simple.  Show everyone the cards are undetectable to the human eye.  All they had to do was grab the coldest card. IMO ever since Goodell took over the NFL it has been fishy.  Patriots winning the SB after 9/11, New Orleans after Katrina and Peyton Manning's going away gift against us. The terrible calls during that game were blatantly one sided.  New England should have been stripped of their first 3 SB when they were caught spying on the other team in their SB wins.  I think the evidence against the Patriots was so damning Goodell felt it could ruin football and they brushed it under the table.   In the 2004 SB, How did we go from practically no yards in the first Quarter to setting a record in the 3rd Qtr.  Dan Henning changes the game plan.  IMO probably the greatest half time adjustment of all time.
