Play Calling Awful

Why was play calling so bad? QB draws and tolbert handoffs after marching down the field passing to KB and Olsen...I just don't understand it. 2nd and 20 and an obvious Cam Newton draw for 5 yards. Over and over again.

Remmers sucks too. He's only good when he plays average/sub par DE's. He got beat by the backups. Sorry but it's just the truth. Just like how we couldn't make a tackle either.

You guys are downplaying Remmers too much. I think he did alright. Heck, he's won a few one on one matchups with Miller himself, and that's hard to do. The playcalling had Shula all over it. Really is a downer when you get outcoached, but it's the first game against the best defense in the league. Consider it a step up offensively as to what we can do.

The 3rd and 1 cam bootleg was just mindbogglingly stupid.. shula just being shula.

Also McDermott gets a little from me as well that cover three is easily beat with an average qb throwing and nickel on third and inches really??? Replace Boston for Thompson and play one high.. we really were outcoached AGAIN

God forbid we ask the rooks to press and potentially (likely) get beat from the veteran receivers off the LOS  they'll face this year. 

The rookies playing deep zones essentially kept this game from a potential blow-out. But yeah, they were pretty bad regardless.

    • From what i see, Canales offense requires a QB that is willing to take chances to maximize the offense. XL is also the kind of receiver that needs a qb to be risky to bring out his full potential. Its just a matter of if Bryce is gonna be that QB.
    • Baker just played how Baker played.... everywhere but here. He is a risk taking gunslinger.  Always has been.  And last year was asked to be what he was.   Geno Smith was the best deep ball passer in the NFL his comeback season.  Wasn't even close that year.  Again, that's the type passer Canales has always been around in the offenses he has been part of.  The pass game that compliments the stubborn run is the deep chunk play pass game.   And that was his first investment with XL.  My continued point, is the same as going into last season.  It's a bad marriage going in.  The QB doesn't fit the scheme.  Again.  Carrol/Fox/Ron....all paired up their boring football with risk taking QBs.  And again, I'm fine if that is where we are going.  It's not my preference but that's not my argument.  I'm saying if we are doing that, we need a QB that matches it.     
    • I guess you missed the point. His rushing attack was dead last yet his team still performed. That’s not Fox/Rivera ball. His QB also had a career year. Remember the same QB that played for us in the same division and was so bad he was cut?  Carroll coached after Lynch as well. In fact Canales was more involved in the more recent offense with Geno Smith and a good rushing attack. People are taking him wanting a rushing attack and assuming that means we are shutting down our passing attack. Again many of the top offenses like SF, Miami, and Detroit featured strong rushing attacks.
