What do you expect out of OC Brown?

i laugh my ass off not figuratively but literally because it reminds me so much  of a monkey trying to shove a round block into a square hole over & over & time & time again whenever i hear someone say well you know all we need to do is become more balanced & less predictable by of course simply running the ball more often .but then all at the very same time they fail to mention that we have really no one to speak of to hand the ball & our starting Qb is so small that we have to bring in Andy Dalton to run the ball for him on short yardage plays ...just saying

Not much really. It would be fun to see him come in and bring balance to the playcalling but that would require putting Bryce in uncomfortable spots which seems to be part of the reason the offense stalled to date. With his background I would expect to see more and effective running but that is going to be tough in just shotgun without some down the field connections being made to stop the loading of the box. It just seems to be asking a lot of a guy who has done so little outside of RB coaching.

I think it will be evolution rather than revolution.  Similar game plan I think but situational play calling may be somewhat different and hopefully a bit more emphasis on the running backs not named Miles Sanders.  Keep giving the rock to Chuba and don't abandon run so quickly.  This may help BY out a bit and help him flourish.

 using the shotgun formation has your offensive lineman moving around alot more & blocking in space requiring more speed along the o-line instead of under center where it's more about brute force.so with that said i believe & am almost certain that has caused or been a major contributor to the problems we have seen this year compared to last year with the offensive line...

It will be interesting, does he do a better job of baiting the D into something by setting it up throughout the game? That seems like something he should/would have picked up in LA. As others have said, tempo hopefully will help and helping to center the offense with a productive run game. I think the fact that they were already tweaking the offense some will mean it will actually be 3 weeks that we are working to get Bryce in a better spot.

It's a bad match of QB to Oline strengths. Still, Young needs to be pushed and stop the coddling. Either he can or can't. Throw down the field and do some non-shotgun stuff more often or it's going to keep failing either way. It would take years to rebuild everything to just a shotgun offense, guys like Moton and Ickey are wasted in that kind of offense.

He will get the play in faster and you’ll probably see less snaps with 2 seconds left...More tempo and he’ll let Bryce cook.

Honestly not much more. 

he helped design this offense (per sheena quick) and the panthers don’t have the personnel to do much more. He might be willing to open up the playbook a little more, but based on what I’ve seen they don’t have the players to execute even the boilerplate poo that reich was calling. 

if the lineman can’t hold blocks or the receiver can’t run (very simple) routes it doesn’t matter who’s calling the plays. 

I fear a lot of people are about to be very disappointed. 

These are similar to my take...

It's reasonable to expect maybe some changes (like faster calls) and perhaps continued steady improvement over time as Young keeps learning and adjusting to the pro game.

But I think folks expecting any sort of instant turnaround or thinking the offense is going to suddenly look like The Greatest Show on Turf Part 2 just because somebody else is calling the plays are likely getting their hopes up for no reason.

    • I had started typing my post hours ago and didn’t finish it and just came back to finish it, posted it, then saw yours and saw we were pretty much saying the same thing - even the games that stick out to us most.  I don’t think a lot of people remember that SF playoff game, but I felt like I had just got mugged in broad daylight.  I remember them calling Mitchell for unnecessary roughness, and then I remember watching Boldin take a super late cheap shot, dead in front of the ref and then showing him watching the whole thing in replay…  the refs let them have a fuging field day and didn’t do jack poo, but if we so much as breathed the wrong way it was fuging 15 yards.  Each team playing under two completely different sets of rules.  poo hurt.  I was enraged.  I’ve never went back to watch either that game or SB50 and never will.  fuging robbery.
    • I’ve said it a million times since, but it’s impossible to keep them from affecting the game.  In SB50, they literally took the game from us, and they did it early.  Cotchery’s no-catch?  The miraculous amount of times we converted for a first down only to have it suddenly called back make it a 3rd down and 15+ against the best defense in the league that specialized in rushing the passer and man coverage on the back end?  And you do that enough times, you kill the morale and confidence of the team you’re doing it against.  It’s telling the one team “you can do whatever with impunity” and the other “you can’t do whatever they’re allowed to do.”  It changes the aggression level.  It essentially neuters one team and allows the other to do whatever the fug they want.  Imagine you call the police for help and they get there and tell you to sit still while the other party beats the poo out of you and you can’t defend yourself.  That’s what the officials do.  There is no way to avoid them affecting the game.  And more often than not, it’s the most subjective calls they use to do so.  Even in SB50…  you saw the Broncos commit more egregious penalties than anything we did, and barely any of it was called.  Their OL was holding all fuging game and the refs did nothing.  We already had our work cut out for us against two future HOF edge rushers and the refs played to their advantage with that.  From what I remember, both Oher and Remmers were called for holding at various times and their hands were in the INSIDE of the defender.  It was garbage, but all by design. Also, if there is any video of it anywhere, go look at what the refs did against us back in 2013 against SF.  The fix was in there too.  They stepped in early and often and ensured we knew we were not allowed to play with the same aggression or intensity SF was.  It was disgusting as well. at this point, I hope Vince McMahon, errr, I mean Goodell just finally scripts us to win it, because this poo is not won via competition or off merit.
    • You can go back to the New York Knicks somehow getting Patrick Ewing.  I saw a story where they place the New York Knick card in the freezer right before the drawing.  It was simple.  Show everyone the cards are undetectable to the human eye.  All they had to do was grab the coldest card. IMO ever since Goodell took over the NFL it has been fishy.  Patriots winning the SB after 9/11, New Orleans after Katrina and Peyton Manning's going away gift against us. The terrible calls during that game were blatantly one sided.  New England should have been stripped of their first 3 SB when they were caught spying on the other team in their SB wins.  I think the evidence against the Patriots was so damning Goodell felt it could ruin football and they brushed it under the table.   In the 2004 SB, How did we go from practically no yards in the first Quarter to setting a record in the 3rd Qtr.  Dan Henning changes the game plan.  IMO probably the greatest half time adjustment of all time.
