The regression of our offense is like a mystery novel

How many people really thought that the offense would not at least be as good as it was last year?

On sports shows, and on the message boards everyone feels like someone should be fired, From our rbs to the qb,head coach,GM,OC and the list goes on.

Some of this clearly lies with Chud and his decision to come out in the read option scheme but why did he make that decision?

I certainly dont know the answers but feel before everyone gets thrown under the bus JR needs to understand what went wrong and who is really to blame.

Its not been to long ago we were in the playoffs and Jake came unglued and the next thing you know we have a lame duck coach and a team that barely won a game.Is that where we are headed again?

My hope is this consultants scope of work goes beyond finding a GM and encompasses the much bigger picture of why we are failing. I have my opinion but like everyone else it is pure speculation .It going to require hard questions ask of the coaching staff and players that we will never hear.

I just want to get it right.

PS: Jr please take notes on the Bobcats transformation

I'm sure JR already has a very clear idea of what happened.

Who else could be behind the play calling this year other than Chud? Do you think the owner is telling him what to run? The players? It's Chud's responsibility, no one else's. Rivera also must take responsibility. If he doesn't approve of what Chud is doing, it's his job to say "stop".

Last year Chud was writing on his laptop. This year he is writing on an old Remington with half the keys missing.

As mad as I am at Chud. I have to believe Rivera has got to get madder. Chud is going to get Rivera fired if things don't change, and quickly. Get Chud back to his laptop and we can get back to improving and maybe even winning.

We should have put up 30 points against the Bucs given our defensive TDs. Our 4 minute offense failed due to negative plays.We do not have an offensive rhythm which we had last year.

I just do not get why our offense is so lethargic this year.We averaged 26 points per game last year.

      Clowney released

      By Waldo · Posted

      Even limited as he was I still don't think they have replaced his production, and not just the sack stats. The games Clowney missed it was very obvious what his value still was. Risky move but whatever. They only had 32 sacks last year and if that drops then it's going to get ugly. I see the improvement in run stopping but not in pass protect in any way.

      Panthers start making cuts to roster

      Sorta related.  I just looked up a stat:  Success rates for NFL draft's second rounders.  I was surprised that it is 49%.  The success rate for first rounders is 58%.   Here success does not mean those that did not bust, it means that roughly half of the players selected in the second round become full-time starters at some point in their careers.  Busts do that too.  However, considering the fact that a first round talent is worth up to 1800 points (first overall pick) more than the first pick of the second round and as low as 350 points (last pick in first round) higher than the last pick in round 2, it seems there could be cases in which it would be to your advantage to trade out of round 1 and draft two or three second rounders for the value.  Of course, the elite players are likely to be gone, and some positions overwhelmingly suck after round 1 (traditionally, like QB or LT, for example), but if you need to find starters at positions like DT, G, LB, S, C, TE, RB, etc, there could be a time when you trade back for more starters.  I was surprised that the margin between rounds 1 and 2 was only 9%.    While I realize that some of you sofa scholars are thinking, "Well duh?  Trading back gives you more players." as you wipe the Cheetos off your shirt.  Not the point.  The point is you have to consider the draft,the needs (and the number of them), and you need to scout the second and third rounds like you do the first, the cap, and the long-term impact.  If you can find 2 players with a 49% chance of becoming a starter, are you better off than drafting one player who has a 58% chance in the long term? So if I traded away my first rounder for two second rounders (a trade most teams would make) regularly, when I got 10 second rounders (by trading 5 first rounders), 5 would be starters.  If I did not trade and kept my 5 first rounders, 3 would be starters.  Furthermore, their rookie contracts would be much cheaper than the 5 first rounders.
