Bucky Brooks: Carolina building for Newton

[unicar15]

Bucky Brooks: The Panthers are looking for sizzle. Cam Newton gives them an "it" factor. He's built to play in the offense they're constructing around him.

I thought this was a really interesting thing that Brooks tweeted a few days ago. What does he mean by us constructing an offense around Cam Newton?? What moves have we made to make him possibly think that? Is the Chargers-esque offense that we are probably going to run a fit for Newton or something??

I hope he is right because Newton is probably going to be the pick. He's not the kind of QB where you can just put him in any offense and he is going to succeed. He's going to have to have something taylor-made for him.

If we take Newton (and we will) the offense will be adjusted accordingly to give him the best chance of success. We're not dealing with Fox's "one size fits all" scheme anymore, which is good.

...and Brooks would know, he's a former Panthers scout and I'm sure he's still got contacts within the organization.

i think he more or less is talking about how we have built a team that a rookie could play with...strong running game...went out and got a TE which can be a rookie QB's security blanket...newton does fit with our vertical passing scheme b/c that's what he does best is throw the ball down the field and with accuracy...it's still just speculation on brooks' part

Gabbert does not have any mechanical set nor mental intellect of Drew Brees' yeah effin' right.

Like I said, we're not going to shove Cam into a system and tell him to learn it. They're going to take the base system Chud runs and adapt it to best fit what Cam does best. Saying Cam's not the same as Rivers is pointless; he doesn't have to be. Our version of that offense could potentially be quite different from what SD runs, even if the basics are the same.

Newton in the gun, Stew and Goodson on each side of him..Smith in the slot w/Gettis, Lafell on the outside. Shockey at TE. Who do you try and cover?

Well at this point in his career you blitz the hell out of Newton and hope he makes a mistake (likely as a rookie). He's gonna be a Panther...There almost isn't even an argument against it. I hope it works out though.

First off bucky Brooks is a clown. Second, Newton is a fit for this offense? 900 page complicated playbook? Did bucky see newton look like a deer in the headlights with Gruden?

I could get excited about watching that after all the boring years- and I guess that's what the FO is looking for.

For starters, we don't know what our offense will look like this year with a whole new staff. Assuming we are still run first, this is a very rookie friendly offense but the o-line has to block this year or we will have the same result. Has anyone heard any updates on Otah? We can't open holes like we use to without him. :auto:
