Gun vs Under Center

I dont know what the stats are for Chuds offense and the percentage we ran our plays from the gun, but I dont believe there's any doubt that plays to Cam's strengths.  Shula wants to traditionalize the offense to more power run, playaction type stuff which will benefit our runningbacks... that is if the line can make lanes.  Well, so far in three games, that hasnt been the case.

 

Other than the lines inability to block decently, at least thus far, does anyone else think that taking snaps under center may be a weakness for Cam?  I don't want to think so but something is up.  We've seen more erratic throws than normal this preseason and I'm just trying to find out where the root of the problem is stemming from.

In the shotgun, I Cam's odds to protect himself MUCH better.

Cam has been clear, his danger is in the pocket....and I agree.

OL can't open up holes therefore I think against a tough D....he needs to see plenty of shotgun

Definitely. I for one wish we would take a page from New England, Philly, and even Baltimore tonight and run more no huddle hurry up offense.  Cam's best drive tonight was during the 2 minute drill. If Lafell catches the ball I believe we score a TD. Philly's no huddle ate us alive and the Ravens first drive also. I'm not saying we do it all game like a Chip Kelly, K-Gun style offense(though I think it would be better than Foxball with this oline) but we should do it ALOT more than just after the 2 minute warning. We see how it puts pressure on our defense to stop it, why aren't we doing that to other teams? Hopefully we do come week 1.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      By TD alt · Posted

      I've really only begun to pay attention this week being that training camp is looming, so I was personally caught off guard by the fact that Nic Scourton remains unsigned. That's not necessarily bad news, but it's not necessarily good news either. Apparently it's a thing with this year's draft class. "Of the 32 players selected in the second-round, 30 remained unsigned and the clock is ticking. "Already we've seen one second-round pick hold out from the start of training camp with that player being Los Angeles Chargers' wide receiver Tre Harris. Harris did not report with the rest of the Chargers' rookies on Saturday due to his contract situation, a issue that could impact nearly every other team in the league. "For the Panthers, defensive end Nic Scourton is the player to watch for when rookies start showing back up to the team facilities next week. "The 51st overall pick is one of the 30 second-rounders who has yet to sign their rookie contract and the reason why is due to the other two that have actually signed. "Cleveland Browns' linebacker Carson Schwesinger and Houston Texans' wide receiver Jayden Higgins each signed fully guaranteed contracts as the first and second players drafted in the second-round. Prior to this year, second-round picks never received a fully guaranteed deal, only players selected in the first-round." https://atozsports.com/nfl/carolina-panthers-news/panthers-nic-scourton-contract-second-round-pick-training-camp-hold-out-tre-harris/ So, I suppose we'll see what's what pretty soon. It's definitely something to monitor.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      overwhelming majority of kids in travel ball aren't getting scholarships though because most teams are rec caliber (and not watched by scouts)    and parents/leagues sort of helped create this system and narrative IMO where travel ball is now oversaturated and most of it is simply expensive rec ball.  is travel beneficial for some athletes to get more exposure? Sure. The ones travel actually existed for.   I still think travel has expanded entirely too broad at this stage......where they will now have 5 teams per year in your backyard area pending they can get parents to write those checks.   Ain't no scout ever laying eyes on 90%+ of the kids in travel ball at this stage of where it has morphed into.
