I am just a nobody. Long time NFL fan and a Panthers season ticket holder.

what I see is a team  that is out  physicaled in every single phase of the game

Hanging their heads, woe is us.

i never thought I would see a Panthers team like that since the days of Siefert 

Simply put. go back to basic football. I don't care if they run three basic  plays and a basic defense but move the chains, eat up the clock.    Get the 10 yards.

No zone read. No throw the ball 30 when you need 7  10 yards at a time

Put a TE or  FB  in the backfield (not named Tolbert) and run it again and again and again   

Find something  that catastrophe of a line can do, dumb it down, and do it

As for Cam, if he is hurt sit him

A few physical first downs would do this team a lot of good  

One  other thing, Rivera needs to get his ass in the game  standing their like a statue is ridiculous,

I think they need to practice read options hundreds of times this week. So they can get the hand off exchange corrected. They need to start playing micro ball, aka going for the first down instead of trying to surprise a team deep down the field in your own half. We have a great Punter but that gives the team no excuse to call that deep bullshit in our own half of the 50.

Now... Another thing that needs to get done is calling that bullshit inside the 30 of the other teams half. That's right... On 3rd and 1you chuck that puppy into the end zone and go for the killing blow. Graham gano can come through a couple times a game for us. This isn't as catastrophic as a sack and punt, we will 80% of the time walk away with 3. And putting points up on the board is better than no points on the board for this offense.

 

Shula needs to incorporate some sort of section in the playbook where Benjamin's name is highlighted in Red. You get the football to your 6'5 240 guy idgaf who is covering him 1v1 the slant is his best ball over the middle. You tell Cam that if you're going to launch the ball in there as hard as you can then Anderson is in. There are times for touch passing and times for throwing the ball to a spot where only Benjamin can get to it if he does throw it with some sauce on it. You never throw high, ever.... Ever.... Bad poo will happen.

 

Lastly, where is the trickery in the offense? We saw it against Denver and it worked on them, incorporate a section of the playbook labeled Ted ginn jr  and execute it. 

Keep all the QB keepers for when we are in our own half and need a 1st down but are mindful the defense possibly knows what we would otherwise do, such as a handoff to the back or Tolbert. Or a 30 yard pass.

 

Then our wounds on offense are somewhat healed.

I think Cam would be all for those types of plays. You wouldn't even need to threaten him with it. Shula just has to be on board and realize when something doesn't work, adjust it. If something works, do not change it.

They need more timing plays for Cam ... once that back foot hits release the ball. 

We have all said it ... situational football has always been Shula's weakness and I honest dont think that will ever change.

If Shula changed playcalling when Anderson entered the game, then we have a problem with Shula. If he didnt ... Then we have a problem with Cam (He needs to start taking what the defense gives me and stop worrying about the home run ball).

Get KB involved but do not focus on him (I think that was some of the problem in the Minn game). I think Cam was trying to prove he doesnt have to throw to KB

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      It all sounds great. The only unknowns are injuries and how they will need to be addressed. Horn has a history as does the newly added Jaelen Phillips and Cooker has yet to play an entire season as well. And then there are the Ikey's - totally unexpecteded injuries that put a major wrench in your plans. I do think its a great plan though.

      If we pay Bryce like a franchise QB we're completely and utterly buttfuged.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      In my view, the realistic expectation for this team to compete will start 2027.  At that time, I think we could be looking at the following (this is HIGHLY speculative):   QB:  You know, Bryce.  I am not a fan, but they don't ask me.  But there is reason for hope--and here it is.  Bryce will be entering his prime.  Since we are likely to pay him, there will be changes that I include throughout this exercise--I realistically speculate on what they are going to do with Bryce and then I realistically speculate on what means in terms of the cap and other positions. Bryce HAS IMPROVED.  The idea is that if you give him more weapons and protection, that will continue.  His career:   At this rate, if his growth continues, by 2027 we should expect nearly 30 TDs and about 12 Interceptions and a Rating of about 98.  His completion percentage should settle at 65-66% or so.  If that happens, you can win with it. The following stats demonstrate how the Panthers will be able to afford it (and re-sign Ickey) My guess is they will require about $60m per year. This is why rookies who can play are important.  It also helps us see the blueprint.  You may disagree, but this is the cruel realities of the salary cap. Robert Hunt:  Cut post June 1 and save $19m.  Who do you replace him with?  Ickey. Tershawn Wharton:  Cutting him saves nearly $15m.  We should all hope to see Aaron Hall (UDFA) make the roster and play well.  Regardless, this is a position we would likely have to address in the next draft. Trevin Moehrig:  Cutting Moehrig as the starting SS saves this team $16.5m.   Ransom will be on year 3 of a cheap rookie deal and should be more than ready to take the reins.  their styles are similar.  Furthermore, FS Wheatley (R, 4th round) will be starting. Taylor Moton:  So much depends on his knee, but I have an idea that he can play another 3 years.  extending him could save the team about $5m per year.  Cutting him outright would save the team about $21m. In the most drastic situation, we have to cut Moton and the other three players mentioned.   We would need (in all likelihood) a starting DT and RT.  It is possible that the DE would be addressed, but Wharton's production (so far) could be equaled by a rookie.  Look for a cut free agent and a 2027 draft pick here.  If you cut Moton, you save $21m, and that would be the only big hole to fill.  Having Ickey at RG gives you some depth at T, and Ickey could be the guy.  T could be pick in the 2027 draft (first round), fwiw.  It saves you $21m while costing you $5m, for example. We get younger, creating a core of Freeling, Hecht, and the RT first rounder in 2027) along with Ekownu (second contract in the $15m range, and Lewis, whose contract would be in the $16m range if not extended.)  The OL cuts (Hunt, Moton) would save $40m.  The OL would get younger and still solid with veterans at G.   By cutting Wharton (no brainer if his play stays the same) and Moehrig (good player--but we have Ransom on a rookie contract who would not be that much of a drop off--if any) in addition to Hunt and Moton, we would save over $70m in cap room. We would be able to give Bryce bag  and we would have enough to re-sign Ickey (if the knee is not too risky) to a Guard contract (probably at a discount, coming off that injury).  Furthermore, we could add a RT in the draft (or a RG if Ickey moves to RT) and that would be the only large hole to fill. Correct my logic if you see issues-- On defense, in addition to the aforementioned, Scott ($2m contract) is out, replaced by a 4th round rookie contract. CB Jackson's contract ($7.8m) expires and he is (possibly) replaced by a rookie contract.  At Edge, patrick Jones II's $10m contract expires and he is likely a reserve, and his role is absorbed by Phillips, Scourton, Princely, and possible an UDFA like Isaiah Smith or a 2027 draft pick.   These productive developmental players over the past 2 drafts will pay huge dividends.  On paper, I see the team getting much younger and possibly better while cutting nearly $100m and reallocating that money to get more production.
