“In the Super Bowl, how many passes do you think Tom Brady threw to his backs? Mostly completed, right?” Shula said. “So maybe sometimes it turns into just a four-yard gain. But I’ll take a four-yard gain. . . .

“They’re glorified runs sometimes, but they work and it doesn’t matter what you call them.”

i hope this means no more run run pass every series. Dare I say, im kind of interested in seeing what his coloring book looks like this year.

Surely Shula saw this before. I cant fathom he didnt. Fore sure 2 new draft picks didnt show him the light of that logig, becuse if it did he should get his ass out of here! Short yardage passes have been eating us alive for several years, and really its not that hard to do. Dink and duck as so many like to say, but wait...here comes the x- factor. Cam is too much ALPHA for such a scheme. A specimen like Cam cant play skinny white qb football.

For those that say Shula should have done this years ago. When did two players like CMC and Samuel ever fall to us in the draft before when we didn't have a desperate need to fill other positions? Gentleman was not about to draft a small RB/WR when we had D-Will and J-Stew. I think signing Ginn and Fozzy was an attempt to get the closest thing they could find though.

To his credit, idk if he really had the tools. Or maybe that wasn't the offense his boss (Rivera) wanted to run? I'm desperately trying to look on the bright side and stay excited about next season.

Losing Smith and Gross was pretty tough and replacing those guys just didn't happen. Now Shula is in hot water. He has to make McC and Samuel stars in our offense. We've brought in Cotchery, the slowest WR in Panther history, to coach these guys up, but I know Shula is worried. He's terrible at adjustments and creativity. This may be the draft that purges Shula.

      to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.

      Jones got projected as the next Eli because they share a similar goofball, on the spectrum energy.  That's my theory.

      I didn't think underrated was the wildest statement. The passing and offensive command he showed in week 18 against Atlanta was as good as any QB that has ever played for this franchise.  I mean THAT part is wild.  Which plays into the overrated part.  End of regulation I don't think he even hit 200 yards passing.  I mean he had a very efficient day vs a weak defense.   As good as we have ever seen in Carolina?
