Shutting down the new Panthers "evolved" offense in two easy steps!

I don't follow the fan logic that says if someone does something right, they are beyond reproach and cannot suffer regression. This is true of Shula and Cam. It also works in the other direction. Nobody here would be upset to see Shula or CN prove the huddle wrong. I don't accept that the answer is black or white, surely there are shades of grey here right?

 I mean even Shula supporters, must admit that variety is not the panthers watchword. Its the repeated banging of the head against the wall that's so dispiriting. They don't have to completely move away from their strengths, but they just look so one-dimensional.

 I've watched a few games this year including NY-Detroit with crappy O-lines on display. The Lions prevailed passing the ball despite having the statuesque Robinson at LT, against a very good D.

 Acknowledge the problem and have a plan B. That's why fans are upset with Shula IMO.

Through 2 games, Robinson has taken well to Detroit coaching.  He's been pretty solid.

The weird thing is watching Detroit, it seems to me that they use a zone-blocking scheme.  And St. Louis/LA used a man-scheme.  Since Robinson's success at Auburn was in a man-scheme where they put a hat on a hat, you would have thought the St. Louis/LA-scheme would have been more natural for him, but he seems to be taking well to the Detroit zone-scheme.  

Ya never know.

And fug Shula btw, an doorknob could predict what his next playcall will be. 

This is an understatement, and I am aware that the following statement makes me a doorknob:

I sit in my living room with my sons or guests and I have about a 70% accuracy rate-I even state where the ball is going and to whom (CMC, over the middle, for example).  Our defense, however, is totally unpredictable.  I never know when TD and Luke are actually going to blitz in A gap or drop--I have no idea when we are sending a CB on a blitz etc.

    • The question is which Bryce shows up game 1. Do we get week 2 (2024) Bryce, or week 18 (2024) Bryce?  I will say that his progression after the benching last year was amazing. He literally got better every game - sans Dallas. Like every week he did something we hadn't seen him do before. And it wasn't luck, toss it up for grabs plays like Penix did against Carolina. Penix was just throwing the ball as hard as he could in the direction of a receiver and hoping they'd make a play for him. What we saw from Bryce was different. Decision making, reading defenses, recognizing blitzes and where they were coming from, knowing his hot, avoiding pressure and manipulating the pocket, throwing with anticipation, taking shots downfield, and running the ball surprisingly well. Stats don't always tell the story. Did he miss some throws that he should have made - sure did. But the clutch gene is strong with this one. One score game and Carolina has the ball with 2 minutes on the clock - I'm confident he'll give them a chance to win more than he doesn't. 
    • I really like David Moore. He's a reliable WR. Smart, doesn't drop the ball and he's where he's supposed to be. Now, he ain't gonna route up a DB. He ain't gonna 50/50 ball a DB. He ain't gonna run by a DB either. But he runs a good enough route and catches the ball - definitely an NFL average WR. Every team could use a David Moore. Now if this receiving group can force Dan and Dave to let him go, then this team has come a long way since 2023. A LONG way. But I will say that Horn's speed is a big deal. They don't really have another guy with speed and quickness to blow the top off the defense and make guys miss in space after the catch, though he is still a rookie and hasn't done it in the NFL. If he and Renfrow push Moore out, then we might actually have something gents. Plus I see Renfrow as Thielen's replacement in 2026. I just don't think Coker is the reliable, move the chains guy like Thielen. Could be wrong. 
    • david newton still doesn't have a clue. how long has he been doing this?
