I'm not totally sanguine about Shula, but having Lance Taylor on our staff as an Offensive coach gives me a LOT more confidence that we'll find a way to use CMc & Samuel

Shula studied Auburn and other college spread offenses so he would incorporate the zone read for Cam, so there is no reason to believe he can't do the same with CMC and Samuel.

You can count on the Carolina Panthers running this play. Jonathan Stewart and Christian McCaffrey to either side of Cam Newton. Fake the handoff, wheel route to McCaffrey for a big gain. 

Will be so difficult to cover. Close your eyes and picture it. 

You got it partially right majority of its going to be him going to the flat for the dump-off 

#2 WR is going to go deep or in the middle this will vacate the space for McCaffrey big gains from the flat.

With an Olsen Seam route and a Samuel crossing route, or a KB post route and who the hell do you cover? With the added threat of Cam keeping the ball, it becomes an absolute nightmare of a play to defend. I am very excited to see what this Offense can do.

I actually think Shula will do good things this year. He is pretty good when he first starts out creating plays. He just gets too comfortable with them even after opposing teams have figured out how to defend them.

And then run the play again but hand it off to Stewie. And then run the play again but flip it to the left. And then run the play again and have Cam run it.

Yep!  So many different things we can do out of the exact same formation.  Defenses won't have any idea what plays we are going to be running.  In the past, you could look at our formation and know what is coming.  No longer.  This brings an element that will give even the greatest of defenses ulcers.  

I just hope our defense is ready to be on the field a lot more, because I have a feeling this offense will have the ability to score quickly and often.

I don't buy into the narrative that Shula wouldn't know what to do with McCaffrey (and Samuels).  IMO, he is able to design good game plans and schemes, his problem is situational play calling and adapting on the fly.

With that said, even if he has no clue himself of what to do, we have a clear blueprint that all he has to do is copy and paste into our playbook.  He doesn't have to be creative, how to best utilize McCaffrey has already been created...and we have one of the practitioners on our staff.

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
