I agree with the other guy, your comment is pure stupidity, sorry to say. I don’t even like your QB. You guys cannot adjust. From an outside perspective, it looks like an organization relying on the QB to save them.

 

If TheSeattleBoy were siding with me I'd have more issues with myself than present so I'm not terribly concerned.

His arm-punt tied the game and set into place the poo storm that followed. I expect no more of Cam than I did (or any Panther fan) did of Jake. When Jake kicked ass but threw it away in the clutch, people blamed Jake

He played poorly, no doubt  about it.  But the loss is almost 100% on the offense, or second half lack there of.

The offense has shown a total lack of ability to adjust and call the proper plays throughout the course or the vast majority of games we've played. That falls on Shula, so he can hit the gotdamn bricks.

Patchwork offensive line, playing a team that has not sniffed the endzone, and at the time a running game that is working you play for a FG there at least on 3 down when you have already taken a sack.  Not sure I can lay it out for you any clearer.  

They were at the 20 yard line with a first and 10 after driving it all the way down the field. No coach in the modern era would play for a fg there.

I don't understand your point.  The objective in that situation is to get a td first, fg second.  The fg didn't happen because the blocking was horrible, period.  It wasn't because of any decision made or not made on the part of the coordinator.  

I really don't understand how this can be put on Shula. The oline did a good job blocking in the first half, and then decided to get peter rolled in the second half - at the end of the first drive of 20 plays. 

They were beat one on one by guys they were controlling in the first half. How/why is that on the OC? WHy should he adjust when something's working? We couldn't run worth anything. THe short passes were killing KC. Their d line just decided to take over the game.

Ive seen plenty of coaches "in the modern era" just run the ball in that situation.  Especially against teams with a pass rush like KC when we have a patchwork O-line.

A zero team? L O fuging L

Nick Fairley, Josh Bynes, Lutzenkirchen, Mike Dyer, McCalebb, Clayton and they were a zero team

If Cam played for Mississippi State you wouldn't be saying any of this and deep down you know it

All those players except Lutz and Dyer were on the team the year before.

That team's record?  7-5

Fairley and Bynes were beasts, but the 2010 defense gave up 27 points to South Carolina, 34 to Kentucky, 43 to Arkansas, 31 to Ole Miss, 31 to UGa, and 27 to Bama.

NOT a deadly defense.  It was a defense that had to be helped by a high scoring offense.

Oh, the offense you say?

Cam Newton - 50 TDs (30 passing TDs, 20 rushing TDs)

Michael Dyer - 5 TDs

Onterrio McCalebb - 9 TDs

Darvin Adams - 7 TDs

Terrell Zachary - 4 TDs

Emory Blake - 8 TDs

Phil Lutzenkirchen - 5 TDs

Maybe you might be noticing an anomaly that stands out in the list I've given you above.

I'll wait here and listen until you can rub a couple of sticks together in that brain of yours to figure it out.

This game can absolutely be put on Shula. Anyone trying to defend Shula after that second half is either a blind homer or simply doesn't know football. We had one good drive, there was some good play calling and some better execution, but Shula killed that drive with plays that get Cam sacked due to a shittt OL. Outside of that drive, it was pure ineptitude. Shula calling stupid plays, Cam with one boneheaded throw (probably felt he needed to try to make SOMETHING happen or it was gonna be sacks, runs for no gain and throwaways the rest of the game), KB with an illadvised attempt to pick up and extra yard and kill seconds. That's a recipe for defeat. fuging Shula. 

Shula actually called a great 20 play, time consuming drive outside that 1 qb run on first and 10. The blame can't be solely put on Shula for Trai just getting straight man handled on that 3rd down sack. You also can't blame Shula on that bonehead throw by Cam. Shula played a part in the loss but the loss can't absolutely be put on him.

Bama scored 27 that year.

The int was bad, but Cam is all you have and I would trade him for Rodgers right now in a heartbeat. Cam with Nelson and Cobb would be a monster offensive.

You guys could not even muster much yards against Tampa’s third string guys on prime time without Cam.

When Cam can’t bail your sorry team out, you blame him is all I am saying.

I just see it differently on the outside looking in, having a QB whom does not care and truly puts his team in bad situations, and whom is not a leader, that is questionable. Not a QB would put the team on their back and inspires them. Cam also does not throw teammates under the bus.

You guys complain about bitching, Greenbay fans will show you a true bitch.

At least you didn't conveniently ignore Dyer's All-American season and the fact that Fairley was the most dominant force in college football. The offense had to be helped by the defense in the second half against Alabama (three points scored) and a vast majority of the national championship game

Yeah and I was the one with the agenda. OK.

    • What's up gents, the OGs remember me, the guy who single-handedly gave the Panthers the greatest uniform in history moniker. Not too long after that I got involved with Pro Football Focus (pre-Collinsworth acquisition) and ended up taking backseat here to preserve some objectivity. But from a distance I noticed a lot. After the end of the Cam era this place devolved into the most un-fun, petty, negative cesspool of whining and bitching that has ever graced the internet. The worst part of it all is that the level of discussion turned into the most ill-informed, hot-take, unnuanced crap, rife with people talking out of their posteriors as if they have any clue about what they are watching. Once you get into the professional side of the sport and actual film rooms, you start to understand there's an absurd number of moving parts to pretty much every snap and the details you are privy to are truly only half the picture. The absolute most important thing I learned from being part of professional level football analysis is that quarterbacking is literally the most intricate and difficult position in all of professional sports, and that the NFL itself is struggling to develop any workable model that allows them to understand what makes one succeed vs what makes one fail. Because of this paradox it has also made the quarterback position itself grossly overvalued from a fan and media standpoint, creating an absurd fixation on the results delivered by a single player who has to rely on the contributions of everyone around them. This also drives the dreaded inflation of QB salaries that inevitably cause even elite teams to lose key talent all to pour cash into the one player supposed to be able to single-handedly elevate the entire team (and defense and special teams and coaching and ownership by some mysterious proxy), yet without those same players even talented teams can wander the wilderness searching for the right guy to take advantage of their talent window. The discussions the last few years around Bryce has personified this insanity, as this board has devolved into some sort of electronic civil war between the hyperbolic Young supporters and the vitriolic Bryce haters. The reality, like practically everything in this world, is somewhere in the middle. He has traits that can absolutely elevate a team with creativity, play recognition, off-arm angle throws, mental toughness, etc. He's also physically limited, with mostly "good-enough" qualities for most situations that a professional quarterback is asked to do, and will never be an overpowering physical force like pre-injury Cam. But "good-enough" physicality represents a large majority of championship-winning quarterbacks, even in the modern era. There's a reason the corpse of Peyton Manning took the chip from elite physical specimen Cam, because the team surrounding him was talented enough to get him there, while we all know Cam was the driving force of that 2015 team. That's no knock on him, that's just how the game of football tends to work: the more complete team usually wins. The summary is this: if this team lives or dies solely on the performance of its quarterback, then it is absolutely a paper tiger even if he plays brilliantly week in and out. There are no superheroes in this sport, there are only conduits that proxy the collective efforts of much of the team around them. And no one alive can tell you how the position is played perfectly, it's all a confluence of circumstance and what unique collection of traits each player brings to the position, which can never be truly recreated season after season, even for the same player on the same team. If this place remains a raging hellscape of idiotic hot takes I will happily remove myself again and do something more productive for yet another decade, but maybe's there hope that we can all get back to the old adage, and keep pounding.
