Where the CMC choice routes that made Darnold look good?

It's because that's not what Ben does.

So he had the entire summer to study the old playbooks, see what concepts he liked or didn't, and build an offense that would work for this team with uneven QB play (I think that's fair to say regardless of our QB).  He has a head coach who like to run the ball and control the LOS, and a rookie LT who needs some help and time to get his head where his physical abilities are.

And this is what he has?  Color me disappointed.  Sure, Ben didn't have a ton of great job opportunities after the giants, but he was around guys and he should have learned, even if it's what NOT to do.

This is apparently who Ben McAdoo is.  Or worse, this is Matt Rhule micromanaging things again.  Regardless, this Panthers Offense is not going to win us any games.  We need more than 1 TD a game from them.  We need to be able to score points in this NFL.  We need to be able to convert third downs.  We need to play to our player's strengths.

I'm so happy for the win, but the same issues are still there.

I don't even think anyone can question this through three games. Brady was frustrating because he wasn't a great playcaller but McAdoo both can't design plays nor call then. He is fuging terrible.

Every year our offense gets worse with Rhule as HC. The Teddy year we weren't great but but not totally putrid. Last year we were fuggin terrible but somehow this year we're quite a bit worse.

If we keep Rhule for 2023, I assume our entire offense is just going to devolve to kneeling on each play and then punting.

I'm just baffled why we hired McAdoo. I mean, I realize why we did it. Rhule just wanted to impress Tepper with his ability to get former NFL HCs to take jobs on his staff but from a purely football perspective it makes no sense. Our personnel doesn't fit his offense at all. McAdoo relies heavily on the TE position and that might be our weakest overall position group. We have the best receiving RB in the entire league and McAdoo thinks RBs can only catch screen passes. It's just a really poor fit of scheme and talent. The same thing is true with the other former HC on the staff. Wilks is a cover 3 zone guy. He wants DBs who play off the LOS and read the QB's eyes. Meanwhile we have a bunch of press man CBs. These hires were made by Rhule to show Tepper he could get coaches with legit NFL experience to work with him, not football reasons.

i kinda agree. this macadoo-doo stuff is telegraphed nonsense. also not fair to measure bradys offensive line and what he could do with this one which is miles better.

Wait wait wait..

No adjustments ever in 20+ games.. Do you ppl not remember??

Oline not good?? Why keep calling 7 and 5 step drop plays?? Do you not remember??

How about 3 games he called the same play 7x and it didn't work the 1st 6.. Do you ppl not remember..

How about the 5 games where it looked like the defense was running our WR routes..  Honest at 1st I blamed Darnold for bad decisions and throwing kill balls.. But it happened to every QB who played.. Db's around every pass play?? Defense calling out our route scheme when we lined up.. That's not QB that's the play designer/caller.. Brady was such a genius the NFl figured him out in 7 games... Do ppl not remember this??

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By Icege · Posted

      "If only Bryce were <height>", he'd <insert stupid thing here>" was the bit and in direct response to multiple posters ridiculously blaming Bryce (and only Bryce) for the punt returns vs. New England. :3 I understand that folks desire balance, hence the "Bryce stans vs. Bryce haters" narrative but it's abundantly clear that the only people going into threads just to talk about Bryce are the haters. Meanwhile, daring to disagree that Bryce was completely at fault for something that happened on special teams gets the "stan" label. Shoot, I'm sure folks lump me in as a Bryce stan (Brycen stan? Absolutely. Bryce stan? Nah) just because I have the audacity to look at what the rest of the team is and isn't doing. 😛

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By CRA · Posted

      PJ Walker is the only QB in the Tepper era the Panthers managed to find wins with.  Only QB w/ a winning record.    PJ had success in pro ball before the Panthers.  He he had NFL tools.    He just is consistent and unreliable.  PJ Walker is what you call a bad/poor man's gunslinger.  He can provide highs and lows both virtually guaranteed.  He is NFL depth.  Bryce Young hasn't proven to improve a teams chances of winning better than the PJ Walker tier of QBing. PJ Walker can do things Bryce Young can't......and that a problem

      There isn’t but the thing is the team/system/staff around the QB ultimately dictates how successful that QB can be. You have Baker getting released midseason here vs playing like a MVP on another team. Darnold on the Jets/Panthers vs Vikings/Seahawks. Geno Smith on the Jets vs the Seahawks vs the Raiders. Mac Jones is looking as good as Purdy on the 49ers. You have to build a roster, culture, and system for these guys.  Obviously the QB has to be the leader and help elevate the team, but we are seeing what moving a “bad” QB to a stable franchise looks like. Daniel Jones might be doing the same but it’s too early to tell.
