This is crazy

Credit to him on that reaction.  He's just guessing and managed to guess right.  Some days you're the dog and for the past 4 weeks we've been the hydrant.

Pretty much. He is a full step in before any other lineman on defense or offense is off the ball.

The late game sack of Cam Newton by JPP.

JPP gets off a fraction of a second the ball moves. Any longer and it would have been encroachment. 

It also bothers me a bit that it takes Clark too long to turn his head toward JPP to see his jump-- he does not have to watch the ball here--he can play JPP---the play clock was hitting zero on this play which is what JPP was going by--not the snap.  Another reason we should not be taking every play to :01

Now that I look closer. He's reacting to Kalil's head movement.  That's all him, he knew that ball was moving as soon as Ryan's head when straight ahead.  

There was no need to guess.  The left guard taps the center and then a beat later, the ball is snapped.  Thats what they did just about every single play on Sunday.  No wonder their pass rush was so good.  Its pretty easy when you know exactly when to go.

JPP was looking at the snap, not the clock. Unless there is a clock in the grass.

on top of that, the play clock was hitting :00.  If he guesses wrong, five yards for delay of game--not offsides.  JPP is a veteran.  What we don't hear is Cam's voice, probably screaming "Fire!" or something that he knew was the code word for Kalil to snap it immediately. 

Seriously, the most upsetting thing about this is Clark.  Game on the line, JPP on your left.  Why are you looking right?  JPP takes 2 steps before Clark sees him!

Here is what you need to know--he sees the clock and knows it is at :03--pretty sure he can count down from there.   Sometimes a LB might yell or count, but i am not sure he was not looking at the clock.  The QB does and most clocks are at field level.  You are good if you can tell where he was looking.

They have absolutely zero sense of urgency on offense.  It seems like Cam doesnt care at all about getting to he line and analyzing the defense.  We routinely get to the line to snap the ball with around 8 seconds on the play clock.  Cam barely has time to slide protections or anything before the clock hits :00. I dont get it.  Is Cam even allowed to audible this year?

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
