We had the slowest paced offense in 2017, currently tied for 4th slowest this season

We will probably have the slowest pace by season end

It’s sad knowing Cam and this offense will never reach their full potential under this regime.

Gotta keep that defense rested and control that clock

Its almost as if the previous OC was doing EXACTLY what the HC wanted him to do.

[Piff]

Got to put that on the head coach.

The Colts have the fastest pace. How's that working for them? The Saints, at 4-1 and with the most points in the league, are only .44 sec and 3 positions ahead of us. I would submit that in the world of significant stats, this one is near the bottom of the barrel.

This is a faulty stat, you slow the offense to give the defense rest, the defense is currently and obviously been struggling lately. So big suprise the offense slows it’s pace of play.

NOTE.

After further review!!! this is a garbage stat. And means nothing. Panthers average .56 seconds slower per play pace than the New Orleans Saints.

stat means nothing.

So infuriating.  It'd be one thing if there were a tangible benefit and the defense were actually playing well and the rest helped them.  This defense sucks, so why not speed up the offense, keep the opposing defense on their heels, and go for the jugular?  You win football games by scoring points.  Period.  Defense is a good thing, but in the end, you've gotta score.  We are the least aggressive offense in the NFL by a very large margin.

Lol, this is exactly what's wrong with everyone complaining about this stat. You don't "win football games by scoring points.  Period." You win football games by scoring more points than your opponents. If that means limiting how much time your opponent has to score points, it means you have a better chance of winning.

Yet we are 3-1. 

I didn't bother to click the link. It's pointless. 

I don't want a fast paced offense, unless we have to score. 

You don't control a game with a face paced offense.

Hence me using the term "defense is a good thing", which you conveniently didn't mark bold.

You're utterly delusional if you think that running the ball and playing defense in today's NFL is a winning formula.  The I-formation don't work like it used to buddy.  Defenses can stop that in their sleep - then they send they're 5 receiver sets out and massacre you.

Disagree.  You absolutely can control a game with a fast paced offense.  Especially in the league today.  You put much more pressure on the opposing offense when they know they have to score to keep up.  

 

It's a tried and true formula that works AGAINST the Panthers very often.  If you get a lead on us, we're not coming back from it. 

[Swaggasaurus]

You know.... the other teams can’t score if they don’t have the ball......

 

This is the right thing for us, it doesn’t always work, but it’s right.

So many fans have no concept of basic football principles. 

You beat good teams with great offenses, by keeping their offense on the sideline. How do you do that?? With time eating, long drives that score points. 

The best defense, is an offense that can sustain drives, while putting points on the scoreboard. It's what you want, especially if the defense is struggling. Even if the defense was elite, you'd want to do the same thing, to maximize winning.

Don't you wish anything in this post was true?
