I think from a running perspective, Chuba looks the part.  He could be a good, quality NFL back.  CMC is a different animal.  Now the injuries have sucked, but we're stuck with his massive contract.  Hopefully he can get heathy during this time on IR, and come back this season.  While the temptation to protect him from himself is high, he's getting paid a poo ton of money, may as well make him earn it.

Now if he does come back, and the offense changes for the better, then we need to get rid of all the offensive coaches lol.  I get that CMC is really important, but if after a season's worth of games, you haven't figured out how to still score point and convert 3rd downs...  You are a piss poor group of coaches.  

I love CMC, and I love watching him play. Our draft is fugged up like no other right now without 2nd and 3rd round picks.  May as well try to have the best and most productive season as possible and play CMC.  Then re-evaluate everything in the offseason.  There will be coaching departures.  Either from college or from firing.  I'm not sure who does what, but I'm pretty sure things will look different in 2022.

When CMC returns they need to spell him. I think people are looking at things wrong when it comes to the run pass ratio. It wasn’t oh we ran the ball more earlier in the season. It was we literally gave CMC half the plays. That needs to stop. Let Chubba run 50% of the plays. Use CMC in the first and fourth quarters(honestly in the first and third quarters at this point). Don’t tax CMC so much blocking, don’t play him on short weeks. Chuba is basically a CMC light so they can mostly be used interchangeably on check down and run plays.

And seriously we need a new S&C coach.

Play action only works if you can effectively run the ball. You can’t run the ball if defenses are stacking the box because your quarterback sucks at reading the field and the defense knows this. Darnold is a zero threat in the passing game. Let alone a deep threat. Darnold puts zero stress on defenses. Makes everything insanely predictable. No OC is going to be successful with Darnold at qb.

It's criminal that we haven't gave DJ a real QB yet. 2017 Cam would make DJ a 1400 yard receiver.

Well, Sam Darnold is a terrible QB. Keep in mind although ALL of our receivers have piled up drops, Sam has been throwing late and also off target all season long.

Our WRs have been playing as bad as Darnald. Moore is the only one that can catch passes that are thrown directly at them. Passing lanes are not always going to be perfect. Especially with our line but if it hits your hands you should catch it.

One thing we did find out about this offense though is that we have no one that is the step up type. Not a single one.

It's a young team. What we need is good coaching. How can you really play well when we keep doing the same thing that's not working. Honestly, how can you keep running the same plays and expect different results? You got to get creative at this point and we are not. Also if Darnald is the one who's all to blame why not run the ball? Why keep allowing him to dictate how bad we play. Same with Anderson. Anderson didn't attack Darnald when he lost it and that's telling. He knows Brady's scheme is poo.

Why was there 2 receivers with 5 yards of each other at the goal line? 

Because they were the bait to get that third player in the end zone wide open. Which he was, but Sam decided to make a horrible decision. I mean look at Moore. Not a single person in 10 yards of him. On a completely blown coverage.

Can't really argue with any of that. I said the same thing in another thread actually about Anderson talking about the scheme and not the QB. Then they throw the rock all over the yard after saying we need to run the ball.

Also our only 3 points came from a 4th down conversion too so it took even that to muster any sort of a fart at all.

Yup, I actually think there was a mistake on the route by one or both.

Darnold didn't step into the throw at all though and just sort of tried to flick it over there.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
