Sorry guys having trouble embedding.  Anyways, Louis Riddick is known for being arguably the most knowledgeable football analyst on TV. He pretty much said after re watching the Carolina vs ATL game, Carolina's wide outs got no separation all game long.. Also, the wide receivers were running day 1 training camp routes for the entire duration of the game, not challenging ATL's secondary at all. It's something us fans have noticed, but it was nice for a mainstream analyst to recognize Shulas deficiencies. Unlike Troy Aikman who talks Shula up all the time.

 

I thought it was worth the 1:30 watch

Some of us have been screaming about Shula's poor play design for a long, long time.

Shula has moments, maybe even brief streaks, of brilliance when it comes to playcalling and gameplanning, no doubt. Unfortunately though those are more the exception and less the rule.

every game this year it seems we have gotten that one autismo drive that is like 16 plays, 8 minutes and ends in a TD. The rest of the game though... nada.

Anybody that's a little bit knowledgeable see the routes as a problem. I notice we do a lot of bunch formation loading one side, I see a lot of congestion with our routes. I posted this in the bills game, there were times where Cam didn't have a passing option on his right side. All you saw was the green field. Why? We have to spread defenses out evenly. Cam should have a target on each area of the field.

When do we do spread them out and go empty back-field, it's usually a Cam draw. It happens ALL THE TIME. How can you not expect teams to not notice this.

Aikman is jealous and quite possibly a racist, they poo on Cam all game long and find ways to talk him down. If Cam throws an interception (what a terrible throw). Aaron Rodgers throws and interception (The wr has to run a better route) the agenda has gotten old.

Aikman definitely called out the constant players in the same area a couple times. He didnt put it all on Cam last week, he definitely called out the routes

Riddick quote from the video:

Quote

"If you expand it outwards, the wide receivers need to work better to get open in that game, 'cause when you watch the All-22 of that game (and I was looking at it this morning) nobody was getting open against the Falcons at all.  And then the route designs were like Day One Install as far as, like, training camp type stuff, so it the Falcons were like "Really? This is what you're gonna run? Then we're gonna make your quarterback struggle.  He's gonna have a tough day here."

Sounds really, really familiar to me.

On one of Cam's interceptions, there was essentially three receivers in the exact same area.  So what happened when he overthrew it?  Why, it went directly to the defender who was covering the Carolina receiver very close *behind* the Carolina receiver that was overthrown (Olsen I think).

      Travis Hunter on T-Mac

      By Seltzer · Posted

      T-Mac put up good numbers for 3 consecutive seasons on teams without a good QB situation, and in an environment where T-Mac got game planned against weekly and still performed. Teams threw all kinds of defensive coverages against T-Mac, and he still found ways week in and week out to contribute at a high level. XL was basically a 1-year wonder. Doesn't mean he cant be great (and I think him & T-Mac will compliment each other well), but i think T-Mac is the more polished of the 2 right now. This certainly isn't a perfect comparison, but I hope XL & T-Mac can approximate what we had with Smitty & Moose (Although i think T-Macs ceiling is higher than Moose and XLs ceiling is lower than Smitty). Both those guys were multiple Pro Bowlers and even All-Pro. T-Mac & XL have a long way to go to actually being comparable, but the potential is there. And regardless of how this season turns out, you can actually see a strategic plan being executed. On paper, I think this offensive roster has as much talent as any Panthers team since 2017. Defense is still a question mark, and it's unrealistic to think we will go from being historically bad to great in 1 year, but based on historical and statistical data, we stand a much better chance of turning the defense around in 1 year than the offense. I still want us to potentially add at S, CB, and ILB, but this roster is exponentially better than the roster heading into the 2023 season. Which still begs the question of how & why the team thought they were in a good position to trade all the way up. Regardless, it's in the past, and while the past 2 years have mostly sucked, we are strategically in a much better position than we have been in years. This is easily the best WR group since 2020 IMO (Moore, Anderson, Samuel). I'm super excited about what T-Mac can bring to this offense and team, and I'm really hoping we continue to build off where we ended last year offensively, and hopefully we've made enough improvements on defense to be competitive. I've also been vocal for the most part in supporting BY9. He came into an awful situation and to a team that was in no position to make such a trade.   Still, this is Year 3. And this is a team that IMHO has both the talent & depth on offense to score and score a lot. Most QBs that ever amount to anything are competing by Year 3. There are no excuses for the offense not to perform. I think BY9 knows full well what's riding on this year in terms of his long term future.  And I think T-Mac is a massive piece in helping Bryce and the team get over the hump and back into playoff contention.
