Is Thomas Brown just calling plays from Frank Reich’s playbook?

Maybe they are just both really not good? Brown is a yet and Reich is a duh. 

Some people were ready to promote him to HC without ever watching him run the offense. Now it looks like Reich was actually telling the truth and it's all a cooperative effort...

Thomas Brown didn’t come with his own playbook right? He’s just calling plays from Frank Reich’s 1983 offensive playbook? 

I don’t think things can get any worse after the Panthers lose to the QB they passed on today. 


Brown said before the season that Frank asked him to write the playbook. Frank gave his input after the initial draft, but it’s mostly Brown’s playbook.

You mean the playbook he and Frank made together?  I would say very likely.

“But Brown said he has free range to build the playbook – the first time he's done it in the NFL, and the second time he's done it in his career (he built the playbook at Miami while working as a college offensive coordinator under Mark Richt from 2016-18).

When the offensive staff sits at a conference table in his office, Brown presents his work for position coaches to help tailor details and solidify certain areas.

"The first thing I really appreciate about Frank is he's let me just roll so far," Brown said. "So being able to kind of put my own stamp on it and just be with the guys in this room while he handles some stuff from a head coach standpoint, it's been awesome for me.”

I thought it was Frank's playbook, play calling, player selection, penalties and injuries?  Frank wasn't solely responsible for all of this?

Been saying that. 

I wasn't expecting any better play calling and that is what I saw.  The playbook looked the same.

Chubba up the gut 2x at the goaline.  WTAF.

      OK, now it's time to discuss a couple of yesterday's problems. Let's talk "Evero."

      By PleaseCutStewart · Posted

      Yep - honestly though, I thought his coverage was as good as you could possibly do on a man coverage crossing route with Dak having all day to throw. Dak made a perfect throw and if it wasn't in front of Pickens, it could have easily been picked off. Seemed like we ran more man than I have seen our defense run so far this year. Defense also did a great job of playing their gap/zone responsibilities (even if Dak did pick apart our zone a good chunk of the game) - that screen play on the last drive could easily have gone for a touchdown if Moehrig didn't play his zone and make a great tackle. Biggest complaint about Evero was not blitzing a few more times (especially when Dallas was in the red zone). The few times we did it, Dak didn't look comfortable.

      This has to be bitached about, those biased refs

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      There was some pretty egregious missed calls vs the Chiefs in the Lions game, especially Kelce. The completion where he clearly used the ground to catch the ball. The hold in front of the ref as Pacheco ran by where the defender was trying to turn around and couldnt because Kelce had him by the jersey. Mahomes openly taunting after scoring a TD. 0 penalties after double digit the week before. Cmon.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      People get trade happy and look at resources as barter items. They fail to see them as resources to be used to our benefit rather than someone else's. Right now, Chuba and Rico are massive benefits to us and a strong rushing attack so greatly benefits any passer, much less a young one like Bryce still is.  And the better our running game, the more our offense can eat up the clock, the less time our defense is on the field. And that is priceless, too. Don't mess with the running game. Don't mess with the receivers. Maybe look at our O-line and think we may have hit on something good during these injuries. Look at our D-line and seem some strength evolving there. Our secondary has its good spots and some that are still developing. Our linebacking corps did well this last outing. Our special teams are on a major upswing as of this past week. Heck, even our QB is showing us a little something right now that we can build on. Perhaps putting out a yard sale sign right now might be less advantageous than looking at the team and saying, "You are all part of something good that is happening. We want to see that continue to grow."
