But our poor finish was all Shula's fault. The personnel didn't matter. Right ???

Shula's fault for calling passing plays that take 5+ seconds to develop with no checkdowns and a swiss cheese OL in front of our franchise QB playing with a fuged up shoulder

Problem is that isn't true. If that is happening then Cam isn't recognizing defenses, calling audibels and managing the offense.  Cams job is to take the play and adapt it to what he sees on the field. Secondly you clearly aren't paying attention if you think he didn't have plenty of hot reads and  checkdowns he ignored. For example most passing quarterbacks learn you  throw into the blitz because that is where the hole in the defense will be. Because he has been  a running quarterback who is learning these things, he tends to roll away from the blitz looking for a running lane and he turns his back which is why he misses the checkdowns  many times if it is to that side of the field. Teams can send a blitzer on one side and double the other side of the field causing Cam to hold the ball and take the sack when if he threw over the top of the blitzer we might have a huge gain.

Maybe you weren't watching the games but Cam barely rolled out last year against the blitz and often the would be checkdown was Stew who was left to pass block to give him more time. Cam isn't Brady or Peyton when it comes to analyzing a defense but the fact that Shula calls these terrible deep passing plays with our WRs who ranked last in separation from DBs is inexcusable.

I will say that Cam does try to do too much at times and force passes downfield into small windows and that is his fault. Ultimately injuries exacerbated what was already a fatal flaw exposed by the Broncos in the Super Bowl. When Cam has time for his receivers to get downfield he will pick a team apart like in the 2015 regular season, but when the OL is injured or teams sell out and blitz knowing that our WRs won't get open in time we are screwed.

      Ohio State no. 8 won it all last year.  No. 6 Penn State and no. 7 Notre Dame advanced to the semi-final. This year no. 7 Ole Miss is going to win it all.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      agreed.  Lack of games/opportunity makes him a non-factor in OROTY talk.  He is just now getting the stage where there is legit film on him.  Takes awhile to really see how guys react to all the different scenarios and to find the real weak spots on a QB's play in an O.

      Oh boy how the tables have turned...the passion and extent at which you defend Shough would make even the staunchest Bryce fanboys blush.  The bold part is especially straight from their playbook.  Even if someone here were to withhold giving Shough props, it's pretty understandable as a Panthers fan.  What's quite odd is becoming the biggest stan of our most hated rival's starting QB.  I don't think even Saints fans drool over him this hard. For the record I think this talk about "stans" and "fanboys" is cringe AF and I'm admittedly being rather hyperbolic because this is exactly the kind of discourse and language you personally love to engage in and it's fun to play in the mud from time to time.  There is absolutely no world where you do not meet your own criteria of a "Super Stan" for Shough with how loosely you apply that label to people for Bryce in here.  You're like the Final Boss of Super Stans.
