Realistic question: if playcalling could be taken from McAdoo, who would you have call plays?

Ellis on McAdoo...

 

I thought it was better that it has been. I saw pre snap motion, PA (briefly), trying to get Moore, Higgins, and Trenble involved. Foreman had some carries as well. Our players just had trouble executing. In the first quarter Thomas and Tremble dropped a 3rd down pass and Higgins dropped a handoff. This ruins drives and never lets an offense get in rhythm. His short yardage play calling was pretty bad still…

That tweet is timestamped fairly early in the game.

And yeah, I saw a little bit of those things. I specifically remember calling out a pre-snap motion to Lady Cowboy Fan.

But yeah, overall it's still pretty bad.

FORCE Rhule to call plays and give Tepper a headset so he can hear the confused bitchy tone in Matt’s voice instead of the grifter speeches he hears in his office 

It'll be like the draft confidentialls they'll regret posting lol. Hyperactive nerd like "Hey what if we do this, maybe do that!, no actually try this!" Dude is so horrible in the moment

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
