What would be your first Offensive play on Sunday

One of the most important things to do early in the game is to identify how the defense is going to line up against formations and how they adjust to motions.  We used to run the first 10 plays of the game in different formations and motions and copy down how they align and adjust to find their weak points.  

 

I think we line up Shotgun, CMC on the right, Tight end trips left  with Curtis Samuel as #3 (will give Norv and idea quickly how they align to trips and trips motion adjustments).  DJ Moore as the X receiver to the right.  So pre motion, looks like it going to be and edge run to the left with CMC (He stays to help block) running to our strong (left) side.  Then we jet motion Curtis to the right (to give the appearance of a jet sweep, which would make sense because it would be running away strength and from Donald).  

Newton quickly fakes the jet, then gives a glance to Curtis in the flat as a screen, but Nope, with LA thinking that Cam might not be able to throw the deep ball, we hit DJ Moore on a deep post.  Depending on their checks, This would probably give us a favorable match up.  I would imagine they would check C3 to get 8 in the box with the TE. (Depends on scouting), but I think the fake jet sweep will slow their Dline rush down just enough to give DJ time to get deep, and I feel like the safety would have eyes on Samual being in motion.  DJ is the first look, then check down to either Greg in the middle of the field (if the deep safety doesnt bite and goes with DJ), or if it is C3 and the CB with DJ bails fast then check down to Samual in the flats.

Off tackle hand off to CMC. Keep it simple and let the starters settle in. Don’t even care if we go run, run, run, punt. The starters have barely played together and it’s a long game and a long season. I can take a 3 and out on the first series if it helps knock some rust off and let’s the offense feel comfortable.

    • They won my vote of confidence for this year
    • I really like the way this team is trending. Morgan and Canales rookie campaign saw them do some questionable picks but, they also did some really good things. Especially addressing the offensive line.  Young had such a disastrous rookie season where his confidence was nowhere to be seen.  You can attribute part of this to a terrible offensive line.  So, we focused on the O-line.   We then brought in several defensive free agents that were supposed to compliment Brown.  Once Brown went down those players could not hold the line.  2025 we focused on defense in Free Agency and brought in several good players.  We then added more talent in the draft.  I think we have competition in several areas where Vets are not guaranteed to be starters.  Our offensive line is pretty set with some good backups.  Our defensive line is going to be a war for who comes out to be the starters.  All in All, we are leaps and bounds much better than 2023 roster.  Canales made some rookie head coach mistakes but grew as the season progressed.  He got our QB, who was starting to look like a huge bust, playing with confidence and poise.  Now it appears Young is moving upwards.  Maybe he is a QB whisperer.  After Young started to play better our offense was fun to watch.  Morgan knows football and knows what he wants in his players.  It appears to me that not only are these players he's drafted really good and got great value for them, but they are also high motor, intense players. Our defense, in the past, was always the key to our success.  I think Morgan is building a great defense. I know it is too soon to tell but I believe we may have a tandem that will be around a long time.  It would be nice to see Morgan/Canales be in the same class as Lynch/Shanahan and Beane/McDermott.   I know many Huddlers will overreact, but I truly believe we have a tandem that will be around a long time. TIME WILL TELL. Go Panthers
