Matt Rhule says the Panthers offense is about to have a "vastly different look," redefined with more of an emphasis on the run game.

It's pretty dumb, but our run game was working and we just stopped doing it in the 2nd quarter when it was a 2 point game. I think most teams try to run and keep doing it til it's not working. They aren't telling people exactly who is going to run where on the field but it's also obvious running outside is our strongest option. It can at least get teams out of man coverage instead of Brady beating a dead horse 

He should have ran the ball until they proved they could stop it. It was working but for some reason Brady said hold my beer.

Yeah Teddy was a beast with horizontal offense, but that gets clogged up in the redzone. Teddy needed a monster to toss the ball up to high in the endzone, or something, but our receivers were too small. Still if you went man on us Teddy would just eat you up with DJ and company at mid-field. We were dead in the water once we got to the redzone.

Yea TB strength is just that can't take that away just like you can't take away Darnold can score TDs in the redzone. We did say in another thread if we could combine them two like Captain Planet or some poo we may be good.

Chubba is not good at running outside. He doesn't have the speed you need to get around the edge. That means that we are going to north and south Chubba until he is almost certainly injured. Expect Chubba to be injured going north and south this Sunday.

That's is not accurate at all.  For some reason they are not trying to run those plays.  Brady is just not allowing him to get in a rhythm but the kid is fast and can get around the edge if given just a hint of a block just like CMC.

Why does Rhule keep publicly telegraphing what we are going to do? At this point every week. This ain’t Baylor or Temple dude.

But that is omitting the plays where is is easily caught trying to get around the edge by LBs.

I’m very confused. Chubba best asset is breaking it outside. He can’t power back, catch or block at this point. Why are people hating on him for the one thing he’s good at?

I've seen him lose foot races around the edge with not so fast LBs. That is why the coaching staff doesn't want to use him like that imo.

Maybe because the public already knows what they need to do? Just a guess. 

[Cpt slay a ho]

At this point can’t take anything Rhule says seriously, he’s 90% coach speak

Disagree. When he gets around the edge he gets yards.

I think Hubbard’s speed is fine.  I think his lower body needs more muscle.  I remember CMC struggling with first contact as a rookie.  He would go down pretty easily too in the backfield.  Came back year 2 bigger and could shake that first contact.  That’s seems to be Hubbard’s biggest weakness a runner right now.  He can’t get away from that first contact yet…and the OL just isn’t good enough to stop that from being a regular occurrence at or behind the line.

In college he could hit the hole inside and sprint, because he's a sprinter. Just so happens he has a better chance of finding a hole on the edges with our O-line. No clue why people are saying he doesn't have the speed. He's a couple ankle grabs away from some 30 yard runs. If my RB had 61 yards and a TD on 16 carries without a long run I'd keep running the ball
