Give credit where credit is due- Shula called an excellent game last night

shula does have his moments.  I'm not giving him praise until his play calling becomes unpredictable and consistent.  Miami helped a lot last night with there giving up.  Miami is not a bad team.

What in the actual f*ck?

I am not a fan of Shula but I will give him credit for calling a good game, but what I think worked well is that we played more up tempo. Newton plays better when he plays faster and has time to analyze the defense. He made some great audibles and reads. 

Cam played amazing which will make Shula's job much easier. 

1. Audible for WR screen for Funchess score. 

2. Read option running: He made the right read each time. 

3. Read option passing: He connected on several run calls with pass options and completed those passes. 

4. Bootleg on 3rd and short. I think this was another called run but he took it himself. The oline was looking around trying to see where the ball was.

Their was still a couple Wtf play calls I think mostly it was the players coming together the last couple of weeks trimming down the scheming on the o line helps now hopefully the coaches don’t put the breaks on it all cause they want to feel part of it. I just want to see points trying be had for 60min

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
