I'm disappointed Samuel is a non-factor in this offense. He's been injury prone and not used enough. People are completely forgetting we spent a high 2nd round pick for him

I'm honestly not. The guy was a really raw WR prospect and he missed nearly the entire offseason. He's way behind. We tried so hard early on to get the ball in his hands in space with screen passes that it became blatantly obvious what we were doing with him. I'll actually give Shula a little credit for stopping that since teams were all over it.

Curious to see what Samuel evolves into, but I'm honestly not expecting much this season. I'll be pleasantly surprised if I'm wrong.

Seems like a lot of people are in agreement...no change in oc or coach unless we suddenly morph into the browns (cant happen, cam and co are too talented) or JR dies and we get a new owner....what a sorry shape of affairs.

Look I love being critical of Shula but I'm just not doing that right now.  You can't criticize him for running the ball.  If we want to be good we have to establish the run, sorry we've just gotta do it.  Cam had to throw 50 times tonight, that is not good for a QB on a short week off rotator cuff surgery.  They've tried every run design possible.  Runs up the middle, stretch runs, pitches, etc.  Our run blocking is just plain bad.  Sorry guys.  

If we want to win we have to run it.  Shula knows that, I know that, everyone knows that.  Can't blame him for trying.

I really don't get why you guys are criticizing Shula for last night.  It's more on personnel than anything, it's not his fault we can't run establish the run which forces us to pass 50 times a game.  Cam was also inaccurate last night

I would lay low if I were you, Mike.

What would you have done differently if you were Shula last night?  Only thing I can think is I would have done QB sneak on fourth and 1.  We are never going to be a good team passing the ball 50 times a game

      Predictions from Charlotte observer sports writers

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Fowler: Bucs 23, Panthers 16. Baker Mayfield only won a single game when he was an unimpressive Carolina starter, but somehow he’s 5-0 when playing AGAINST the Panthers. For the Panthers to pull off this upset, they’ll need to score at least in the mid-20s. With Tampa Bay relatively healthy following a mini-bye (and Mike Evans’ return is huge), it feels like this will be too tough a task. Kaye: Bucs 24, Panthers 20. The win-loss-win-loss streak comes to an end. It’s hard to trust the play-calling following the loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Panthers know what’s on the line, but they also knew last week, too. It’ll be close; I just have trouble trusting a positive outcome after a defeating one on the road. Zietlow: Panthers 38, Bucs 35. This prediction goes against conventional wisdom, but then again, conventional wisdom doesn’t seem to apply to these Panthers. This group, after all, has yet to lose back-to-back contests since Weeks 1 and 2. I think they win this one to make Week 18 interesting — and yes, that’s even with motivated Baker Mayfield and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans in good form. Why not?

      Sam developed into a different player after he mostly sat for a year and learned a ton by being in that QB room under Shannahan in San Francisco.  Then he went to the Vikings who have a poo load of talent and another genius level offensive mind at HC in Kevin O Connel. I think they genuinely built up his confidence in a way he never did in New York or Charlotte.  He would not have been the same player if he stayed here IMO. Especially if he had been involved in that disaster season with Frank Reich in 2023, that might have cooked his confidence for good.  I guess you could argue we wouldn't have been that bad if we also kept cmc and dj i guess.

      Willis was impressive last night given the circumstances. GB and SF seem to just have it figured out as far as QB goes.   It's frustrating, but I enjoy seeing our old players find success elsewhere.
