I know you love Shula, and I really hope you're right. I want to see this offense evolve. 

Don't love him simply think he is is the same guy that gave us the number 1 offense in 2015 and will give us a top 10 offense in 2017.

I guess everyone forgot his college coach at running back is our wide receiver and McCsffrey is our new slot receiver.  Shula doesn't have to do anything but listen to his staff which he always does

Shula should watch out, his replacement might be on the roster.

Honestly, I'd see how Shula uses him in the preseason and fire him before the season starts if it's clear he has no clue what to do with him

Why? He's not going to show his hand int he pre season. He will be running a vanilla offense like they always do in the pre season.

Brees and Wilson are great short distance passers. Cam is not good at short soft touch passes. The reason our short game is weak is not because of Shula.

Some people just won't accept that a lot of what happened last season is on Cam. Tom Brady hasn't always had the best O-line either but he ALWAYS produces no matter what.

We have had the personnel available to create nightmare matchups for most of the teams in the NFL.  As it turns out, the thing that holds us back most is us.  Shula has seemed absolutely locked into the mindset of a power run offense dictating to the rest of the league.  This is awesome when it is working, but when you have a team like Denver expose the glaring weakness that so much of the play-action is predicated on this power run game giving the passing attack .....

First of all we don't run a power scheme 90% of the time. Secondly we had the worst rated wide receiver group in 2015 and it wasn't much better last year. What Denver exposed is that our offensive line was suspect and our receivers couldn't get separation against press corners. Plus if you take head shots at Cam you can take him out of his game.
The overall feeling has been that Cam doesn't have enough weapons so you seem to be either be in the minority or are talking about some other team besides the Panthers.

In Cam's rookie year (I know, no Shula), Stewart caught a lot of balls. 47-413 77% catch rate. It can be done, just needs to be in the playbook and practiced. We just need to do better than that awful looking fake left throw blindly right screen pass that turned into pick 6, lose at Oakland.

Exactly.

And Jeremy Shockey wasn't running post-routes 40 yards downfield in that offense either.   Yet, somehow, with his purported "inability to throw short, soft touch passes",  Cam managed to pass for over 4000 yards with 60% completion that year.
