So much for taking the load off of Cam

The last two games Cam has been the Panthers leading rusher. The result? 0-2.

No other quarterback in the league is asked to be a bigger contributor to the offense not even Aaron Rodgers. 

CMC and Samuel were drafted to be playmakers and so far they haven’t lived up to that. Mccaffery has been a solid contributor, but he hasn’t been the dynamic playmaker he was billed to be. 

Matt Kalil was brought in to improve the LT position, and he’s been a downgrade. We haven’t been solid at the position ever since Gross retired. That falls on the front office. 

Yes Cam has made many mistakes this season, but the coaching staff and his supporting cast hasn’t made it easy on him. This isn’t to make any excuses for Cam, but Shula rarely puts him in positions to be successful and when he does Cam has to be perfect to take advantage of the rare good Shula call. 

The Panthers are simply too heavy for Cam to carry on his own. He needs help. 

-Bad offensive line

-Bad offensive coordinator 

-Lack of playmakers 

-No rushing game

The problem is that the load can’t be taken off of Newton, because he’s the only reason we are ever competitive. Major changes need to be made.

THAT is the most important part of the whole thing. The coaching staff has been bad, especially Shula and the offensive staff. The OL is horrid and CMC doesn't appear to be an NFL RB. Cam is one of the best players in years in the NFL when he's on but when he's off he is BAD. I'm concerned hes too beat up to play to his best ability but he still has to be held accountable for his mistakes too for us to improve.

Every qb makes mistakes. We just aren’t good enough around him to win when he does.

runs up the middle over and over makes it easy for the other guy. 

Now I'm not a professional or anything, just high.

For example, the Bengals (who l hate) crappy offense of line, like the Panthers. However and receivers are better and running backs are better and their quarterback is a lot better. They're getting creative with play-calling on offense kind of hanging in there with Pittsburgh, a much better team. We have to get better on first down play calling. Cam is having to carry the entire offense, which is unacceptable.

Serious question: Did anybody TRULY believe Shula would really evolve this offense? Did people truly believe Shula was capable of building an offense that didn't have to rely on Cam running?

The thing is, is that it has "evolved."

Definition of evolve:

develop gradually, especially from a simple to a more complex form.

 

Our offense has gotten more complex, and is a different form than before, but with much much sh*ttier results.

      I get it's subjective and I said "PFF rated him as" one of the top deep ball passers during that time, which is an accurate statement.  They are still a group of professionals that look at film and data in order to make their judgements/ratings.  These people whose data has been incorporated into a lot of teams' staffs view Bryce's deep throws as some of the best in the league during that stretch.  That tells me that he can probably throw a deep pass vs the Huddle's version of he is small and didn't do it his rookie year so he must not be able to.  That and literally seeing him do it just makes me feel he is more than capable of doing so.   Do you think PFF is skewing their opinion to prop up a QB in a bottom tier franchise?  It's just another group's opinion and I feel is pretty respected around the league currently.  It's not the gospel truth or anything.

      I still remember how happy I was that gettlegut was not the GM once he picked Jones, that was a firing pick and well..... If not for the raiders drafting Clelin Ferrell, it was the biggest draft day mistake in the last 20 some years.

      He had 251 passing yards. 3 passing touchdowns and 2 rushing touchdowns. All in all a very impressive game. Problem is I do not envision his rushing ability translating like that over the course of the upcoming season. Yeah it will be something to account for from time to time but one it's not sustainable and two you don't want to put his durability to the ultimate test against a motivated defender willing to take a penalty and a fine. And plus with our backfield. Two 1k yard rushers. That's what they're here for. Then we have a much improved WR room. That means Bryce has to elevate those passing numbers substantially. The fact of the matter is regardless of circumstances it did take him 23 games to surpass Kyle Allen's single season passing yardage from 13 games in 2020. And that is not a high bar by any means. Whatever QB tier Bryce ends up in from here amongst his peers this upcoming season when it's all said and done it will be with his arm.
