Panther's performance in the 4th quarter = bad

Makes me wonder if they actually only plan for 3 quarters..

They only plan to get a lead. When we get up 10-7 Ron believes we should win that game 10-7. They're terrified of beating someone by 40 points. So it's slow it down and grind it out. They stop trying to score points and start trying to just play keep away and run clock.

Riverboat hasn't shown up much this season. I don't know what exactly happened. I remember last year it was almost like a ritual. Score and keep scoring no matter what the quarter was. He's gone way too conservative for my liking. :\

Thats absolutely correct. And that means that Shula IS adjusting, just in a way that is bad and no sane OC would ever do. 

But he cant go back to playing quick once he slows down to try and keep a lead. So if we blow it after that we are boned.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
