A few good reads on Shula

I'm sure theres plenty more of where that came from. This is just the top 3 google results, with "shula","crow", and "carolinahuddle".

I mentioned it in another thread but I will say it again here. We had more PPG than 5 of 12 playoff teams this year. 

Now this is not to say Shula is some offensive genius. I just agree with Rivera, that a change at OC, would not have yielded better results or taken us to the promise land this year. Nor is it worth the risk and hassle of installing a new offensive playbook for Cam and crew to have to learn.

So how do we get better?

The fact is, he knew DC's had him figured out before the season started. Even with that said, when you get to week 8 and you know teams are stopping you because you're calling the same plays as last year, you have to move forward. Idk how to do that, but that's what they pay him for. To figure it out, and he needs to. I know the o line plays a part in that but it can be worked around.

This season's results don't take away what he was able to accomplish last year.

Having said that, it seems like 2015 was more of an outlier than the norm. He deserved credit for 2015, but he also deserves blame for 2016. 

Shula performed as well as Rivera and Gettleman performed at their jobs in every year he's been an offensive coordiantor.

Many fans  prefer to have a 1 scapegoat and that they can throw most of the blame on. It's lazy and dumb.

The brunt of the blame belongs to Gettleman and Rivera. 

Shula should shoulder some as well the balance is not there amongst the fans.

Look at this way. If JR shitcanned everyone. 

Shula could possibly get another OC gig,  Ron and Gettleman would have no chance of finding  their same position with another team

Have I ever trusted Shula completely? No, but it's hard to judge him this season when the O-line kept degrading by the week. Lose the war in the trenches and just about any offensive system will break.

I do believe we need more offensive pieces that provide more flexibility on what we could run. Finding better Uglies would help but frankly, what we need most is a semblance of consistency.

    • As far as elite/elevate talent QB’s It’s Allen Mahomes Jackson and Burrow that’s it.  Then we have tiers and those can be debated all day Dak is a good QB but I know this board would want him out of Charlotte if he was the QB here. 2 playoff wins in 10 years. Justin Herbert no playoff wins. Threw 4 interceptions in last years playoff game. 23 TD passes last year. 20 the year below and 25 the year before that. This board loves stats without context and these stats aren’t saying they’re much above complimentary  Kyler Murray isn’t good. I’m not sure how he made this list.  Caleb Williams, Trevor Lawrence both benefiting from some real good offensive coaches right now. They’re both complimentary pieces until proven otherwise  I like Jordan Love. Always have. I wanted to draft him but he isn’t a superstar.  CJ Stroud hasn’t been much better than Bryce after his rookie season. After that Bears game year 2 his numbers very similar to Bryce I will say I think Drake Maye is well on his way to becoming the next top tier QB if I had to pick one from this entire list. I’d also say Baker Mayfield is a damn good QB and I’d take him over most of those guys not in the elite category  Now if you want to debate tools and which QB’s possess tools to put them in higher tiers that’s a completely different discussion. Most QB’s on your main list all have those physical tools that will keep you thinking he’ll become the next top tier QB. They’ll sprinkle in a “wow” play or two a game. Bryce will never look that way. Young’s game at its peak will physically always look different and I think that’s where most people struggle when it comes to seeing how Young’s can be successful in the league  All QB’s need a team around them. I think the Bills are failing Josh Allen much like the Panthers did Cam. Beane and McDermott using same blueprint with Bills team. Josh Allen hasn’t had much in terms of WR’s and it’s ultimately costing them when it matters the most
