Over Coached?

reading an article about the bobcats, it got me thinking if the same thing may be happening with carolina. The article referred to coaching instincts out of MKG. I cant help but to wonder if this coaching staff has filled Cams head with so much crap, its slowed down his reaction time. Cam was successful last season because they let Cam be Cam. This year it seems hes very unsure what he wants to do and is thinking too much instead of just reacting to whats in front of him.

Our problems are as follows:

- The offensive line has severely regressed, with Hangartner going from serviceable to mediocre, Amini being a rookie, and Kalil and Gross turning in subpar efforts. Byron Bell has been our most consistent lineman. . .

- This regression has killed the running game, hence Chud constantly going back to the option fishing hole to cover up for the lack of push up front.

- The dead running game has forced Cam to generate almost all the offense, and do so in coverages that aren't worried about stopping the run, and since he is dead set on avoiding interceptions he's not reading or reacting as fast as he needs to, nor following his progressions, and the constant pass rush has killed his footwork.

This season hinges on Kalil, he of the Super Bowl prognostication, getting his crew back in 2011 form, and pronto. They've wrecked the offense, with plenty of help from Chud being unable to adjust on the fly and Cam struggling to do everything himself.

Something is certainly going on in Cam's head. Being at the game I caught a lot of things I never saw on TV. We had at least one wide open receiver on nearly every play. Didn't seem to me that Cam was going through his reads very quickly. I agree that this college style offense may be causing him to regress.

And the O-line sucked.

    • I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.  
    • Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
