Analyzing Shula... 

The folks on here who defend Shula like to harken back to 2015 (and yeah, I probably would too). For sure, that was a great year. Shula had something going, a lot of it dependent on the threat of Newton running. 

But here's the thing: Every scheme, every approach, every nuance, every whatever new thing you bring to the table is going to get figured out. That's just the NFL. That's how it works. 

What matters most is what you do after that great idea you had gets figured out.

If you're legitimately good, you adjust and come up with something else. If you're really good, you might have already anticipated what was going to happen and you're ready to counter it.

If you're not, and that one thing was all you had, then as soon as the rest of the league figures you out, you're done.

Neither Shula nor Rivera seems to get it, and I don't buy that they will anytime soon.

... if you don't also fire Rivera. 

The head coach is in charge of hiring assistants. Left to his own devices, Rivera will hire another OC just like his current one (and probably from within his current staff).

This team needs a complete overhaul. GM and head coach both need to go. But sadly, even that won't be enough unless Richardson allows someone else to pick their replacements.

So essentially, don't hold your breath on things getting better. 

 

it would make me feel better

There's a question that's rattled around in my mind.

If there were a power struggle between Cam Newton and Ron Rivera, who would win?

Cam would win just like Davis and Olsen did. I just don't think Cam is that type. Maybe I'm wrong.

also ive been banging the drum on shula for as long as anyone, but it's not like there's some offensive whiz kid sitting in the wings. 

incompetent people don't give themselves reasons to look over their shoulder. 

Which goes to the point that the change needs to be more than just Shula. 

But again, if Marty Hurney is in charge of the head coaching search, it doesn't matter. 

Speaking of which, I'm sure the search for a new GM will be getting started any time now.

    • Truth. Like when UNC hired Butch Davis and then we get hit for recruiting violations. Like yeah, no poo. Dude coached Miami when they we paying like the 33rd NFL team. What did you expect?
    • He's a hard player to rank, cause he is a young NT. I do see his abilities to branch out among the DL. That's the only way for him to land in the 1st, some team has to believe he's got the stuff to play DE or T3.... I just don't see using 19 on him, I feel there should be around 7 players just ranked higher than him for the Panthers team.  ___________________________________________________________________   Now you are a roster nut like me. Im tossing this into fire, I think a good move is to trade UP, yes rare. Just the roster #s tell me 5 rookies and no more than 2 starters will make the team. I feel 5 is magic number.    QB- 2  BY, Pickett RB- 3   Chubba, Brooks(pls), etienne TE- 4   Sanders, Temble, Evans, Draft pick/major/franks/UDFA OL- 10   Walker, Lewis, Fortner, Hunt, Motown, Zavailla, Samac, Stone, Draft pick, Draft pick/Charles/carter WR-  6   Tmac, XL, Coker, Metch, Horn, Tremay   offense=  25 with 3 draft picks   DL-  6   Brown, Brown, Wharton, Ray, Cam, Hunter/draft pick Ed-   5  Phillips, Nic, Prince, Jones, ST/incoom/hampton ILB-   5  Lloyd, Wallace, Bam, Claud, draft pick CB-    5 Horn, Jackson, Thor, Evans, draft pick/CSN/UDFA SS-  4  Scott, More, Ramsom, Sim   Defense = 25 with 2 picks   ST = known 3+o+d = 53 roster   SO I see only room for 5-6 with factoring in UDFA pool. That tells me to trade up! Bonus the 1st+3rd gets in front of TB yucs. Then use one of the 5ths+2nd to draft another target. That's your two starters and use the 4th, 5th and 6th for the development OTs and what ever the best player are at the pick/DB. The last couple years they have added 2-3 UDFA each year, maybe the same this year too. Soooooooo Im normally 95% trade back, but above made me change my mind. I do not want to waive 5th rounder, I feel thats high with players on the bench.    ?? There's waiver claims too, they have done that each year.
