Watching these playoff team's offenses

It is really, really discouraging watching the amazingly sophisticated schemes and play-calling by teams with coaches who don't live in daily fear of the NFL's liberal passing rules.

But, according to Ron, in order for us to evolve on offense we need to... run the ball more.

Those QBS don't have Shula as OC

Newton had by far the worst completion percentage of qualifying QBs -- the second worst was nearly 4 p.p. better. You can't blame that sort of statistical deviance on an OC. 

 

And perhaps Shula avoids calling for short, accurate passes for the same reason Kyle Shanahan doesn't call QB keepers for Matt Ryan.

I hate the modern NFL. Rules favoring offenses have gotten to be so fuging absurd and ridiculous. Rivera I think would be one of the best coaches of all time back in the day. Unfortunately the game has changed. Still think he's the guy and can have success in the modern NFL, but he needs to make the tough decision to change the entire offense, and it starts with Shula and Dorsey.

Atlanta is winning because they are effective at running the ball with Coleman and Freeman

Dallas is the one see because of their run game

New England looks invincible because of the duo of Blount and Dion Lewis

Laveon Bell has single handidly changed the steelers season

 

Ron is right. We need to run the ball better to lengthen drives and take some pressure off Cam.

QBs all also convert ~70% of their passes instead of ~50%

Our offense doesn't require 70% cmp percentage. A lot of that is dump offs. Cam's highest was 61.7 in 2013. What our offense requires though is a complete o-line and a competent OC that calls the right plays especially in crucial situations. With our tackles and our OC (and not to mention drops), it makes running our offense harder than it should be.

Our offense also requires more intermediate and deep throws than these other offenses. I know you like taking shots at Cam, and he had a bad year, but if he's between 58 - 62% were good.

The huddle tells itself so many lies so many times it starts to believe them. 1 of which is Shula being our biggest problem. 

Seattle fans are singing the same blues about their OC after they couldn't make adjustments yesterday to offset their outmatched o-line.

Patriot fans might be doing the same if Osweiller wasn't such a terrible QB. Even the great Bellicheat and Mcdaniels couldn't stop a superior d-line from harrassing Brady and causing him to match his season total Interceptions yesterday.

    • lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.
    • I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.  
    • As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
