Chud Has To Stop Ignoring The Runnning Game

I've calmed down a bit, but this was a problem at times last season and today played a big part in us not being able to take the lead of the game

Cam can't do it by himself, especially as a rookie or sophomore

3rd quarter, we just scored a TD, got a good punt return and we're on the 41 yard line. This would be perfect time to try to establish the run or at-least slowly and efficiently score another TD. Instead we go for the big play and it turns into an INT. We had all the time in the world here

4th quarter, we have a chance to be what... down 2? Goal line, not 1 running play to Tolbert at-least

We're a very good running team and teams know that. That means even if it's not working, they're still mindful of that. Once you go desperate mode, it makes things harder

You are the 1st and might be the only person I'll pie today. I wish he would have tried to run out of a power set on that series. Or atleast been more conservative on that drive. NO!! 1st play Chud wants all or nothing.

It wasnt so much a lack of run attempts as it was poorly called plays.

Tampa sniffed out the read option early but we kept trying to go to it. Combine that with the fact that we didn't utilize the short to intermediate passing game at all and consistently went down field, it's easy to see why we didn't have any sustained drives today.

Chud used the same gameplan as last yr and the Bucs were ready for it ... they knew that QB draw was coming the whole D-line was waiting for it.

This.

Those option read runs that reinvigorated our running game mid season last year are being read way too easy. NYJ did it in the preseason and the Bucs sodomized us every time we tried it.

Agreed on all points, we need a traditional run game to establish what we are, from the very start. Take the training wheels off Cam, set up that run and subsequently play action passing.

Sprinkle in the shotgun cute poo from time to time, but pray help do not make it a base to an offensive gameplan.

I didnt want to start a whole new thread so I decided to state my case here.

We need to run the ball behind a fullback. It seems stupid to run the ball most of the time out of a single back formation. I just dont see us putting up good rushing numbers vs good DLines if we cant get an extra blocker in the back field to lead the way.

I mean Tolbert is listed has a full back, but not once can I remember DWill running a play today with Tolbert paving the way.

      Derek Carr Retires

      By fanpanther · Posted

      D Carr must have really disliked the saints to wait and do this announcement after the draft has passed if he made this call a few weeks before the draft sure they would have approached it and the offseason differently.  oh well will be interesting to see how their qbs perform.  would love to see them roll with Thill and just make the whole offense towards his skillset.  Although sadly would be only playing in about half the games with how often he gets injured.

      I have to say it's quite fascinating seeing you pivot from months and months of wailing and agonizing about threads derailing into Bryce Young slingfests only for you to turn around and do the same thing. And just for the record. Nobody in life ever attained wisdom and clarity from mistakes by having people blindly fawn over them and tell them they are above reproach and incapable of making mistakes. Our front office is just as human as we are. And based on the fact that front offices across the league outside of a handful of teams change on a fairly regular basis it's safe to say they are certainly no more infallible than the average Joe even though they possess significantly more knowledge usually. If you want a utopia where all you do is shine shoes for anyone associated with the Panthers you go right on ahead and create yourself a new community sir. More power to you.

      I trust Morgan when it comes to LBs so I think Wallace will do well.
