3 Minutes 1 T.O. on their side of the field...

Recommended Posts

Aside from all of the other miscues leading up to the last 3 minutes of the game last night, the Panthers had the ball around midfield with 3:10 on the clock with 1 T.O. remaining and the 2 minute warning.  Any coach who has ever coached football knows that you want to score with very little time left on the clock because the opponent has already matched up and down the field on you for 28 points leading up to this point... So what does Shula do...

3 straight passing plays that ended with 3 incompletions of throws all 20+ yards down the field, 1 to CMC on a go route ball landing in the endzone...

What in the Absolute F***

3 minutes with technically 2 timeouts ball at midfield and in opponents territory and you call that horse crap... 

Literally sat in the stands scratching my head not even knowing how to feel, somehow the Eagles pull some similar crap and give us YET another opportunity and what does Shula call on 3 and 1 and 4 and 1 with the game on the line... Passing plays. 

You didn't give your 6'5 250 athletic quarterback who has all of the rushing yards in the game a chance for a oh lets say a draw? QB sneak, dive, power?

Worst playcalling Shula has ever done in my opinion in those last 3 minutes, hell maybe 4th quarter.

I think you score when you have the opportunity to score and if you leave too much time on the clock and get heat so be it. 

But, I have no idea why we were chucking the ball down the field like we were in desperation mode. 

Shula’s logic almost all the time is “no way they’re going to think I’m this stupid so they’ll never expect”

We can’t run... “no way they’ll expect me to continue to run the ball in the 2nd half”

Stewart’s hands are terrible “no way they’ll expect me to throw a screen out wide for Stewart”

I could go on all day but you get the point

The guy is literally a f’n idiot

Completely agree. And the fact the Panthers got a 3 and out on the Eagles and still got a second chance cannot be the excuse for what happened on that series. Eagles get one first down and it's game over.

Watching 3 passing plays down the field with all the time in the world to cover 50 yards was painful. That's on Shula, but those throws... ughhh. Cam has to shoulder some of that, too, because he was way off the mark.

Just now, electro's horse said:

Best part of Romo is his external monologue, so you get to think what was a very good qb is thinking in the same situation.

Get to the line, plenty of time, have three plays you want to run, make quick adjustments, can still use the field, internal clock, etc. 

Cam/Shula do none of that.

Was as frustrated as ever about that.  How do we not have plays in place for that sort of thing?  At least spike the ball to save some time...I just don't get our offense...and Ron doesn't seem to care.

Absolutely agree... with out turnovers, stupid non fg decision, losing Luke and overall sloppiness we has a great chance to still pull that out...why are we swinging for a grand slam like that. Most frustrating part of the game for me

    • We agree here dawg. I'd love for Bryce to succeed as would all huddlers. I have not seen a single huddler hate Bryce for anything other than his play on the field / potential / skillset. He hasn't gotten any of the irrational hate having nothing to do with football that Cam got. And yeah I understood going into this season with Bryce again as there weren't a ton of options, but man we missed the fuging mark on upgrading at backup QB with someone who could actually push Bryce. Bryce had zero pressure on him with a 100% washed up Dalton being the only other NFL caliber QB in the system. That absolutely needs to change this offseason. Ideally with an actual starter upgrade but that seems extremely unlikely due to not having many FA options and a bad draft. But at the very least with someone like you mentioned, young/upside and/or day 3 pick in the draft.   Another note, we have a top paid and top performing OL, great young talent at WR incl. likely OROY, great RB group, average all around TE group, offensive coach with creativity in the system and good play designs (poor situational playcalling but still I put out current offensive coaching staff over Shula who held Cam back for instance). Not the absolute best situation for a QB to be in, but still a very good situation around him. And yet we have a bottom 8 offense (6th lowest points scored). Imagine taking a victory lap for a QB leading his team to the 6th lowest points scored in the league and the 22nd highest passer rating (despite being asked to do less than many other QBs; i.e. Bo Nix who isn't great either and has a slightly lower passer rating but Sean Payton actually lets him try to throw the ball deep and has him throw significantly more than Bryce). Crazy
    • similar to Atlanta and the NHL.  Atlanta has lost two NHL teams (and lost a minor leaguer).  Now there's another coalition pulling together another proposal for Atlanta to get an NHL expansion. While I'd like hockey to be back in Atlanta 'cause hockey is fun, I am skeptical that it'll happen based on previous teams' experience here alternatively: similar to Atlanta hosting a Major Tennis Tournament in advance of the US Open every mid/late summer.  Aside from the fact that Atlanta is said to be the country's largest Tennis playing city (with both USTA and ALTA, along with a number of side leagues) - playing tennis outdoors in Atlanta summer is miserable *and* they had difficulty attracting players... ticket sales were not good. So the Atlanta Open closed after 14 years.  They just couldn't make it happen, even if for all intents it appears to be massive tennis interest in the surrounding area.
    • So I saw where Luke was doing that show parallel to the game. Whatever it was, statcast something something, knew it would be a good watch. I don’t get ESPN any more but that would be one of the about few things I would watch outside of games.     He doesn’t fool around on the radio broadcast.
