This is my special thread for people who know everything about football, and can't wait to share it on a message board. Fiz, KillerKat, GMan, etc..., are you ready? ;)

This is your scenario. You're STUCK with Jake. Period, end of discussion. No Moore, no Feeley, just Delhomme, ok? And you have the rest of our offense, including Jarrett, Moore, Barnidge, and the usual cast of characters.

So with Jake as your starting QB, and knowing that the line is coming together, and knowing what NFL defenses will do if you run 90% of the time, how do you get the offense rolling? What kind of plays do you call? How do you maximize the strengths of each offensive player and how do you hide their weaknesses?

And if it's different than what you see on the field, why do you think that is?

Probably limit Jake to short slants, screens, no throws over 15 yards. Treat him like the Bucs and Ravens did with Trent Dilfer. They managed to get into the playoffs with a terrible QB, but it requires a defense that gives up less than 13 points a game.

Did you see the Atlanta game? Thats how. Fox (or Davidson whoever calls the shots) has to completely change the way they pass. No more of those deep prayer passes into double or triple coverage Jake just does not have the arm anymore. We basically have to adopt some type of WCO and rely more on the dink and dunk, 5 yards here 10 yards there, type of passes. And don't wait till were down by 14 to start passing. Running every down might work against the Bucs and may work against the Bills but when we have to meet the top D's in the league we will be shredded.

Fox has been relying on SS for far to long. We have TE's that are great at both Route Running and Catching use them. We have Dwill who is one of the most explosive players in the league get him the ball in space. Whether its screens, swings, line him up at WR, or how bout we try a shovel pass now and again. We have the tools to make the passing game at least good maybe not great, we just have to use them properly.

The problem with the short passing system is that it brings every defensive player up to the line of scrimmage, making running the ball even harder.

We simply HAVE to have a downfield threat to prevent them from over loading on the run.

Joey Galloway? :gnorsi:

Not if our defense can dominate. Many teams have won a superbowl with no real downfield threat.

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?

      Sorsby to the supplemental draft

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Supplemental draft uses picks from next year. So a team were to draft him in the 1st, their upcoming 1st next draft would no longer be available. There have been some notable players that were obtained in the supplemental draft, such as Kosar. It doesn't necessarily happen every year either, and is more on a as needed basis. The gambling trouble is a big red flag for teams, and maybe pushes him down to a 4th? Not sure a team would use a 1st on him.
