Has more to do with the QB than the coach. Clausen couldn't even throw the ball 40 yards. Newton flicks his wrist and it's 50 yards downfield.

I agree, that is why I put the coaches in the thread title. Rivera is a defensive coach too.....just shows that he isn't living in the past.

It's probably roughly equal in responsibility. I mean what are the chances we would have even had receivers that far down the field to TRY to catch the ball under the previous regime? Receiver - I should say - b/c it would have been Smitty crossing / max-protect every play once we got a lead.

ehh, I'd use the "distance thrown" split, because while big plays are indicative of our new offense, I think distance thrown is a better way to look at it. It's true we've seen a DRAMATIC difference though. Here's that breakdown... note that due to rounding, some of these won't equal 100%, but you'll get the idea.

Moore:

Distance fraction of total throws

Pass Thrown Behind LoS 0.190140845

Pass Thrown 1-10 yds 0.450704225

Pass Thrown 11-20 yds 0.218309859

Pass Thrown 21-30 yds 0.105633803

Pass Thrown 31-40 yds 0.028169014

Pass Thrown 41+ yds 0.007042254

Cam

Pass Thrown Behind LoS 0.135135135

Pass Thrown 1-10 yds 0.243243243

Pass Thrown 11-20 yds 0.459459459

Pass Thrown 21-30 yds 0.108108108

Pass Thrown 31-40 yds 0.054054054

Pass Thrown Behind LOS 0.231543624

Pass Thrown 1-10 yds 0.516778523

Pass Thrown 11-20 yds 0.181208054

Pass Thrown 21-30 yds 0.036912752

Pass Thrown 31-40 yds 0.020134228

Pass Thrown 41+ yds 0.013422819

edit: by the end of the season I expect Cam to have far more 1-10 yard passes, because he is still adjusting to sometimes taking what defenses are giving him rather than forcing it long.

In general I agree, but I think we can all agree that we are FAR more competitive than at any point than we were last year right?

I mean none if it "matters", but the key to this season is improvement.

We can also agree that Cam and our coach hates that term. I do too. I don't watch the games to see my team be competitive. I watch to see them win.

0-2 vs 0-2.

Let's get a win before we continue bashing the old coach

0-2 really isn't 0-2.

One represented something at it's end.....the other is something being built.

Not so much bashing but pointing out the drastic change in view.

Not knocking you CRA, I'm just ready for threads that keep looking back at our piss-poor tired excuse of an offense to go away. It's depressing to even think about it.

I here you....but this really has 2 sides to it. It is pointing toward what appears to be a very exciting new offensive mindset here in Carolina. Never thought we would see our offense be this explosive so quickly in the passing department.

No doubt we've evolved to an electric offense that has re-energized our fan base, the one's who have a clue anyway.

Now, having said that, you know that a thread title including Fox, Moore, Clausen is serious troll bait up in here. Someone set the trap...they're coming.

:D

2 losses are 2 losses no matter how you look at it...rarely a team will pull off a huge lage season run and make the playoffs but an 0-3 start pretty much means your season is over. If you want to consider it "growing pains" that's fine because they are, but the team could have won both the games and that's what the difference is.

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By beckersteen · Posted

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.

      Bryce’s deep passes are intermediate passes for other strong armed QBs. I will say that Bryce’s accuracy on his deep passes have improved. Before they would just sail out of bounds. Now the WR actually has a fighting chance on the ball.
