Still have offense concerns

Even though going into next weeks game we will probably win and capture a playoff spot. What I have concerns with every time we have momentum during a game the playcalling goes to crap ( going away from what’s working) like they’re just trying to run out the clock and killing drives pretty much on a  consistent basis. We should have buried The Packers last week,But like most games we make closer than it should be.

My question was why haven’t we seen Cam in the hurry up offense Like he was in 2015 it’s seem to give offense rhythm and confidence I just don’t understand why I haven’t seen it this year.  Our offense just scares me going into the playoffs this year.

Man I was infuriated when we were up like 10-14 Sunday (don't exactly remember the point of the game), Bradberry had just gotten the INT I think and we go run two straight draws leading to a three and out. Like Cam was locked in and had been money the past few drives.  KEEP. IT. IN. HIS. HANDS.

When will our coaching staff learn that a two possession lead with 10+ minutes left does not mean the game is over?

....we need to turn that sht over to Cam...to a certain degree...he has the feel but he can be over exuberant on his expectations...

Shanahan called plays when he was on Falcons and made to many bad calls and Ryan called his own and those plays worked a lot of times. Why couldn't we have Cam same way to slow down Shula shenanigans and make his own calls. You never know what Cam can do unless he is given the reigns from time to time.

Yea I have been saying this for a long time..its like they really don' want the offense to win the game. Then when the defense wets the bed of Cam CAM We NEED YOU..Playcalling is of great concern..Who runs with 130 secs before half with no sense of urgency ..and then with 30 secs pass before the half..Just clueless. It' so laughable.

We get a lead and we go into HAMMER time which is a fancy speak for lets run that clock down. Meaning we will run the ball, then run the ball again, then attempt a 3rd and long pass. This will continue until it's stopped. Defense is rested and gets to go all out.

The problem is if they stop it then we look foolish for doing it. And they come back on us we go fast till we get a lead and try to get that clock down immediatly. It's pathetic

Spending 8 minutes is just as good as a touchdown to Ron Rivera

      In my opinion Fitterer was probably right about not paying McCaffrey. Now not wanting to "pay RBs" in my opinion isn't something you want to set in stone, to me it all comes down to the individual.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      Maybe I'm just not understanding, but everywhere that I have read says that signing bonuses go against the cap prorated by as much as five years. The following example uses Andrew Luck's rookie contract as an example. "Take Andrew Luck, the first overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft. Luck signed a four-year contract with the Colts worth $22.1 million and included a $14.5 million signing bonus. Rather than a $14.5 million cap hit in 2012, the Colts spread out his signing bonus over the life of his contract. The hit against the cap would be $3.625 million per year over four years instead of a direct cap hit of $14.5 million directly in 2012. This gave the Colts more leverage and cap flexibility in signing other players." https://www.the33rdteam.com/nfl-signing-bonuses-explained/ I don't know why some of you think that signing bonuses aren't counted against the cap over the length of the contract, but whatever.   "The bonus with a signing is usually the most garish aspect of a rookie contract. Bonus is the immediate cash players receive when they ink a deal. It factors into the cap, but only for the whole contract duration, in terms of salary cap calculations. In the case of Bryce Young’s $24.6 million signing bonus, that’s prorated to approximately $6.15 million per season over a four-year deal. This format allows teams to handle the cap and provides rookies with some short-term fiscal stability, which is important given the high injury risk in this league." https://collegefootballnetwork.com/how-rookie-contracts-work-in-the-nfl/ I understand how signing bonuses can be a useful tool in order to manage the cap, and as one of the article suggests, signing bonuses may become important if you have a tight cap, but the bill is always going to come due. I'm not necessarily referring to you Tuka, but it seems to me that others simply don't want to understand that fact which is why they're reacting to what I'm saying negatively. How odd. In any event, I have a better general understanding of why signing bonuses are used now, and it's generally to fit salaries under the cap. Surely players, whether they be rookies or not, love a signing bonus because they get a good portion of their money up front. This in turn gives them more security and probably amounts to tax benefits as well. I also understand why teams would not want to use signing bonuses, particularly for players or draftees who have a higher probability of being gone before a contract even ends.
