Man, I wish Chudz didn't go for the kill shot here.

I understand the playcall, but I think its too aggressive a call to leave in the hands of a rookie QB in that situation.

It looked like a double move to Smith in man-to-man on an option route.

Of course Cam threw it to Smith but Cam threw it outside and Smith beat his man on the inside.

I wish they called a play with more high percentage options or a play that gave Cam the chance to run for the 1st.

Just keep the chains moving to keep that drive going.

But, hey what're you gonna do.

Chudz has been on point all season.

A run play would have been stuffed.

The call was great. Execution was poor.

I didn't notice Sunday how Naanee just dove to end his big play. Looked like he was scared of getting hit. Any other receiver on our team that would potentially have been a TD.

Oh, I definitely noticed it. Any of our other offensive players would have either tried to go around or through him, including Cam, but Nanee gave up like he was Drew Brees on a scramble. I was already on the fence with Nanee, but his lack of effort there sealed the deal.

Call was terrible.

Fly/Go route is one of the lowest percentage plays in football.

Should have linedup 4 wide

2 curls, 2 drags and have the rb go 2 yards for the checkdown.

then is EVERYTHING is covered Cam has the option to run for the 1st down.

    • PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.   
    • Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor. 
    • Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
