How many yards did the read option lose us today?

How many times today did we have a drive going and the read option gets stuffed for a lose and sets the offense back?

How many times did we run out of a shotgun? Or line up in a shotgun in the red zone?

Did you notice how even with injuries to their OLine the Bucs kept running the ball out of power sets? Even when it didn't amount to nothing. Which in the end tired our defense down.

Why can't Cam change a play when he sees the defense loading up against the run?

Chud sucks and it will be a brighter day in charlotte when he is gone.

This is what I keep screaming to myself every game and just when you think the staff has been working towards going back to a more traditional offfense, they come out again today and the majority of their running plays are from shotgun. Even last week, the ran more Cam under center with I-formation, single back on the first two drives then abandoned it the rest of the game and running from shotgun majority of the time.

I just dont get that and it just looks like to me that their offense is actually better when Cam is under center.

The excuse that Cam can't play from under center is a joke.

I'm starting to think Chud can't coach a offense from a traditional base set.

Whether it is read option or lining up under C......our ground game is about the exact same either way.

No. One is helping the QB become a better QB. The other is making him a sitting duck. I will take the 2 or 3 yards we get from a run under center then the 4-5 yard loss when we run from the shotgun.

      Panthers bring back TE Feleipe Franks

      By strato · Posted

      Lot of different agendas dictating opinions.  I don’t think it was the best use of money with Hunt, specifically, but the concept of OL, I am a fan. I didn’t complain a ton because I am a believer in winning up front, on both sides of the ball. I’d rather have stout fronts than fancy WRs. I have complained some about Hunt not being worth his deal, after seeing him get pushed around in a game or two. It’s no crusade. And have complained in the context of shorting the defense.   They have leveled out the FA imbalance with the dual big signings this offseason, and it has always been the draft picks I am most protective of. Anyway The picks are the real imbalance. If you did a trade chart value of the picks we directly gave up for Bryce, and added the support picks invested for skill players, and put that on one side… then put the little 3 3rd rounders and a 2nd that the defense got over three years on the other it would be hugely out of balance. I just want the balance restored. Defense is still owed.

      Panthers bring back TE Feleipe Franks

      I'm one of the ones that won't let it go because it didn't solve the problem. We didn't address the center position which was a huge mistake. We were in position to easily take 2 or the top IOL. Instead of drafting JPJ over XL or Frazier over Brooks, we relied on an oft injured guard to center conversion and lo and behold, it failed as predicted. XL looks like a 1 year college wonder and an injured Brooks hasn't even surpassed Eric Shelton.  Bryce was also benched for poor performance, so the issue that many claimed was solely bad oline play wasn't. It didn't fix him bailing out of tight pockets because of being unable to see the field or him refusing to work on his atrocious footwork. Then there's the $$$. Lewis got a good guard payday. Hunt got a tackle payday. Pay tackles, draft guards, if you can.  I have no issues addressing problems through FA. It was not addressing C at all that's been the issue and still has been. Ryan Kalil was the anchor of our offensive line. We had years of solid center play and it showed. Now we're still piecemealing the center position with an expensive oline and it's still a shitshow. Why? Because the player responsible for what happens on the line presnap has little to no experience doing it. We did acquire a FA center this year finally. We'll see how much that impacts the line.  Spending on a center, whether it be through draft or FA is not bad. It's not a position that can have anyone just thrown in with no drop off in performance. A great center lifts the play of the guards on each side.  I don't like how we've built the line because we've ignored the hinge pin that everyone counts on every play. And the reality of the situation is, it didn't solve the actual problems with Bryce because those have nothing to do with the oline.

      Haha!!! That's true. Also carry Tomahawks, ballistic missiles, fighter jets, VSTOL aircraft, etc., but none of them clog up the crappers.
