shanahans offense is always pretty amazing and mac jones was running it well tonight.  panthers should have signed him last offseason.

Lol Bryce would look even better in that offense. Mac would be trash in Canales offense.

Well that's certainly an opinion.

I very seriously doubt that but at the same time the Mac Jones we saw last night would've never showed up in Carolina, that's for sure.

I dont see that happening, the throws with the velocity and touch that mac jones had last night and his ability to see over the line is something young has yet to show.  even though mac jones was booted from the patriots he still showed more promise and better stats than young has ever done.  Mac Jones does have a week arm by nfl standards but young is just another level of not physically gifted.  But it could also be that every coach and player young has played with in the nfl are all terrible and they are all holding his greatness back

I don't think Mac Jones has a stronger arm, just better footwork.

And the height difference matters, a lot.

Mac didn’t attempt a single pass past 25 yards, and only one pass 20. You guys would just turn on him here immediately if we signed him

Yeah, I think part of the reason that Bryce has an issue with missing high is that anytime he has traffic in front of him he's having to loft the ball up and over that traffic

If Bryce was efficient it wouldn't matter. The issue with Bryce is that he both can't push the ball down the field and he can't be efficient. That leaves your offense stalled out because the defense is choking you to death.

I get the call to go for it. The bitch of coaching is that when you make these calls you're brilliant if it works out and you're a jackass if it doesn't and everyone's going to second guess it. It's is what it is.

I get that he's expecting his OL to be able to create a yard there but at the same time it's also basically your weakness against their strength. The part I disagree most with honestly was the decision to go out there and bark to try to create the false start then calling a timeout and putting your offense back on the field. Now you've shown your hand. Now they know you're going. You can't call back to back dead all timeouts and you're not backing your FG kicker up so you're going. I agree with trying to create the false start but I don't think you call a timeout and then out your offense back out there. If that's your plan you gotta kick. When Stafford started walking off with still several seconds left in the play clock I honestly thought they were gonna do something sneaky like a direct snap to the RB or the RB running up under center and basically doing a tush push style play. I don't like calling the timeout and putting your offense back there with the D now knowing you're gonna go.

That could be. No one paid attention but I posted a video last year of two NFL QBs I forget which two, but they ran a test with velocity reader thing.
What it was was first throw at a target with your normal comfortable motion. 20 yards maybe which gets you what, 12-15 yards downfield? Anyhow they were hitting the net or whatever they were throwing to. 
Next you throw your ‘fastball’ (high effort).

They were missing high a lot. Predominantly high, but the accuracy suffered. 
So if you are a guy that has to try harder to get the same velocity, that you might need, that is something that you are likely going to see, less accuracy and missing high.
