Panthers Offense Also Has To Keep Cam From Getting Hit Too

[beastson]

We can discuss all day about illegal hits, but Mike Shula/Cam and this offense must start working on how to get the ball out faster. The 1st half against Denver was perfect in execution, 3 step drop passes, Cam not dropping too far back, misdirection and zone read with our RB's, we kept Cam out of harms way. 

Until the 2nd half, they do a complete 180 back to our usual offense

To be fair those hits on Cam happened when he rolled out of the pocket to extend the play. I would like the Panthers to eventually get a blocking FB and a RB that can handle 300 carries a season.

Denver's defense is good. Can we move on now. Damn

[Jangler]

The line can only do so much, when Cam moves, hold penalties happen, so the same can happen here. Cam moves, Oline doesn't know where he's moving to...therein lies the problem with some  of these penalties.

Defense needs to keep Cam from getting hit by responding in kind, yes we will probably get penalized but the message will be sent.

I agree, but what also needs to happen is our hog mollies need to stand up for Cam when he gets hit like in the Denver game... they acted like it was perfectly fine that Cam was getting assaulted.

[Jangler]

Yeah, a nice pushing flag is worth it sometimes.

[maddog1945]

I really didn't see anyone stand up or get in anyone face after these hits on Cam.

Man got to stand up for his team mate, especially QB!

lol

You said "Shula" and "get the ball out faster".

lol

Dude, Shula can't even get the fugging PLAY in faster.

[Jangler]

Play a few bars in the huddle...

I don't really endorse Carolina attempting to focus on the quick short pass routes unless it is vs a rare D like Denver.   Not really Cam's game

[CPantherKing]

Cam needs to be able to read a green dog blitz. The blockers also need to release after a chip or fake block. There will always be a free defender spying Newton or coming to hit him like the Broncos were doing by anticipating that he will try to extend the play. Newton has to hit a blocker who releases if their defender is blitzing, throw the ball to the sideline at the feet of the releasing blocker, or throw the ball up deep in a man on man situation and trust that the receiver will win the battle.

He should never break the pocket and try to extend the play without expecting to have the free defender ready to hit him immediately.

The only way to stop a green dog blitz is to have a WR who can dominate their defender one on one. Two seconds and throw the ball. Until a receiver can consistently win their one on one match ups, Cam will see much more of the Green Dog Blitz from opposing teams. This will keep Cam from scrambling to extend a play. The Panthers offense must prove they can beat it all game long.

How many years now have most of us said, 'Cam get the ball out faster'?

Bingo. This is the slowest team to evolve I have ever seen. I saw a stat that Newton in his brief career had been hit 588 times

Think about that 588 times starting his his sixth year, the next closest is 200+

Also. It is past time for an upgrade at tackle. If Darryl Williams can't beat out Remmer, well if not now, when?

this club needs to stop the bargain hunting and reclamation projects on  the oline and there is always an excuse

i am sorry but if we could trade up to get Funchess...if we could give a 4th Rd for a punter, we should be able to get a decent tackle

...or find one good young fullbacK or TE who can block and catch.
