2013 Is The Year of No Excuses


Recommended Posts

My points are fair or not, Cam needs to get there sooner rather than later and all teams have holes.

 

Good QBs can make up for and good coaches can help that along.

 

Much depends on this in 2013. 

 

If Ron Rivera requires a perfect team in order to be successful, well, I'll be dead and gone before this

team has another winning season. 

 

 This offensive coaching staff needs at least 3 running plays that it can run for at least 3 yards at a pop, I don't care if its up the gut, off tackle, or zone read.  It can be the damned GB Sweep, just

find it and do it.   After all the OTAs, pre-training camp meetings, training camp, and pre-season games, I would hope they know what those 3 plays are.

 

I agree that he needs to get better, but with the scheme ran in Carolina He needs a stout oline to protect him because of all the deep complex routes that are ran. If he doesn't have that, there's only so much he can do to improve.

My point exactly.

 

Change the scheme to match the players strengths on the roster not force the players to the scheme.

 

The roster has talent in some spots, not others.  Play to the strengths and hide the weaknesses.

 

The talent level here has been bankrupt for several years, people say that is not so, the record says it is.  It takes time to rebuild,

this coaching staff needs a tactical to strategic approach to its game planning.

If they were going to go with a scheme that matched personal they would've went a different route with the OC position. Shula is either going to run Rivera's offense with more focus on the running game or a power run game similar to what Tampa ran. The Ol can't do either of those things well. 

 

If anything going with Shula and not going a different approach on offense might cost Rivera his job.

Going with Shula's plan, whatever we think that might be, with an o-line that can't run it will cost him his job as well.

 

Being less than 9-7, with a couple of melt-downs at home or on national tv will too.

 

That's what I was saying. The OL can't block well enough in the run game for Power running and it can't block long enough passing wise for the Norv Turner offense to work well. If they were going to go a different route on offense, Rivera would have went a different direction at OC. 

 

Shula being hired tells us they are going to rely more on the running game and still run the Norv Turner offense, which based on what we saw last season and so far this pre season just isn't going to work well enough for this team to be consistent.

    • The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.
    • Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories.  If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought.  Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year.  We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.   
    • Looks like Darnold should have had at least 3 picks. That'll get ugly in the playoffs eventually. Can't deny his physical talent though. You either have that or you don't. Mike Macdonald is a legit coach.
