Cliff notes:

Basically McAdoo is trash. The RPO game is the staple of our offense and it's trash. We're not feeding our workhorses and Mayfield is a limited QB schematically and we're not playing to his strengths (play action).

Smitty did give the D props. Said their biggest problem is simply getting worn out from being on the field all game.

IMO, it's very clear at this point that Phil Snow has been the reason for Rhule's success. Rhule is the pitchman and Snow is the actual brains behind the operation and that's why Rhule has always coached defensive focused teams with "good enough to get by" offenses. Except "good enough to get by" at Temple and Baylor ain't good enough to get by in the NFL.

that was great thanks

Yeah, loved Smitty giving the defense props.  They’ve been playing about as good as they can considering how shite our offense has been.  
 

The offense basically being RPO without the R was one of my favorite things he said.  Mentioned Foreman is nowhere to be seen, Baker can’t find throwing lanes like he should, while smaller guys like Murray and Brees don’t have those batted ball problems, and ended with a disgusted face asking “what is McAdoo doing?”  I don’t know Stevonne… I just don’t know.

 

Was also nice to hear him say his two teams are the Panthers and his Utah Utes.  Love hearing him not talk about the Ravens (except for that cool little Suggs story).

 

always an entertaining time with 89

He is right.  We ran the ball a couple of times to start the third qtr.  We punted, and they tied the game at 10-10.  After that, we passed the ball roughly 20 consecutive times.  By the end of that stretch, we were down 26-16.  20 consecutive throws might work with Mahomes or Brady.  It ain't working with Baker Mayfield.

Smitty doing a lot of posturing and thinking about what to say to not sound like a complete ass.

His unfiltered version is, the players are good enough to win some games if put in the right position to succeed. These coaches are so fuging dumb, they will never put them in that position.

    • Hold up--do we have depth at Long Snapper???? Well, do we?????
    • Carolina Panthers Round 1 (14): Edge Brian Burns, Florida State Round 2 (37): OT Greg Little, Ole Miss Round 3 (100): QB Will Grier, West Virginia Round 4 (115): Edge Christian Miller, Alabama Round 5 (154): RB Jordan Scarlett, Florida Round 6 (212): OT Dennis Daley, South Carolina Round 7 (237): WR Terry Godwin, Georgia Day 1:  A favorite of PFF Senior Content & Strategy Analyst Austin Gayle’s, Florida State edge defender Brian Burns is special. He’s a freakish athlete with great bend that can win outside with the best of them. He’s also a very, very smart player that will only continue to get better at the next level. He also earned a career-high 87.2 overall grade in 2018. “Burns is much more refined [than Leonard Floyd] in terms of using his hands… So, with the upward trajectory of his career, he’s the kind of guy I bet on to continue to succeed at the NFL level.” – Pro Football Focus’ Lead Draft Analyst Mike Renner Day 2: Ole Miss offensive tackle Greg Little and West Virginia signal-caller Will Grier were both top-35 overall players for PFF in this year’s draft. Over the past two seasons, Little allowed all of 26 total pressures on 993 pass-blocking snaps. Grier tied Drew Lock for the NCAA lead with 33 big-time throws and has the second-best best passing grade behind Kyler Murray. Grier won’t start for Carolina, but he’s a capable backup that has a good chance of starting for someone in the NFL in the future. Day 3: Carolina’s first two picks of Day 3, former Alabama edge defender Christian Miller and Florida running back Jordan Scarlett, both offer upside if they can put it together at the next level. Among edge defenders with at least 400 defensive snaps in 2018, Miller ranked 27th in overall grade, tied for 32nd in run-defense grade and tied for 18th in pass-rush grade. He’s a raw prospect with untapped potential having played fewer than 700 defensive snaps in his Crimson tide career. Scarlett was suspended for the entire 2017 season, putting his future in the NFL in jeopardy. But the Florida back returned to form in 2018, earning the fourth-best rushing grade (86.4) in the 2019 class. He’s a bit of a thumper with surprising speed that should make a living forcing missed tackles in the NFL; he’s a great complement to Christian McCaffrey in Carolina. DRAFT GRADE: EXCELLENT    
    • Carolina Panthers R1 (1): QB Bryce Young, Alabama R2 (39): WR Jonathan Mingo, Ole Miss R3 (80): EDGE DJ Johnson, Oregon R4 (114): G Chandler Zavala, NC State R5 (145): S Jammie Robinson, Florida State Day 1: Carolina moved up to No. 1 overall and secured their potential franchise quarterback. Despite concerns about his size, Young was the top QB on the PFF big board, and his 92.9 passing grade led all players at the position over the past two seasons. Day 2: Mingo was one of the biggest risers in the pre-draft process and finds himself in Carolina to team up with top pick Bryce Young. While his production in college was spotty, he has a good blend of size and athleticism to like his fit here with the Panthers. Not to mention, he flashed often on tape between unbelievable body adjustments and clean wins at the line of scrimmage. This is one of the bigger reaches so far based on the PFF big board, with Johnson coming in at 237th overall. The Panthers are taking a swing on Johnson’s athleticism on the edge (4.49-second 40-yard dash at 261 pounds). He’s a 24-year-old prospect who recorded fewer than 50 career pressures on 786 defensive snaps in college. Day 3: The Panthers have invested in improving their offensive line over the last several seasons and continue to do so with Zavala here. He played just over 1,000 snaps in the FBS but earned an 86.5 PFF pass-blocking grade last season and adds some explosiveness to the interior of their offensive line. Carolina adds another defensive back for new defensive coordinator Eviro Ejero to deploy in a deep secondary unit. Robinson’s 16.0% forced incompletion rate illustrates his playmaking ability at the catch point when targeted. He plays fast, but that sometimes results in a missed tackle, with his 7.4% missed tackle rate on the high side. DRAFT GRADE: B+
