Welcome to Shula ball....

This looked really familiar. I have been stressing for months that Shula's biggest issue as an OC was in game adjustments. Once the defense adjusts to what the offense is doing, it's difficult to score. It's just not his strong point.

Lets all hope this is just a one game letdown, because if its an indicator of what's to come its going to be a long season.

Rivera just said in the press conference they need to look and see what they did to stop our offense.

That idea is about 20 minutes of football too late.

What did he do wrong?  Did people expect us to explode on Seattle's elite defense or something?

 

He called a good game.  Seattle just played good defense.  Not much he can do.  And we were driving on Seattle down the stretch.  Not his fault Williams fumbled.

 

Do not evaluate Shula off one game vs. a top 3 defense in the NFL.  Because this is the same defense that shut down Rodgers and Brady led offenses last year who are both more talented than what Carolina has on offense.

 

It looks like a situation of you just wanting to be right about your pre-conceived notion. Maybe Shula is bad.  I didn't see what you saw today.  But do not judge him off 1 game vs. a terrific defense.

    • Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others. 
    • I'm excited. I love situations like this when you could potentially find a diamond in the rough on the cheap. And you know guys like this are gonna put in the work and desire way more than others to be great.
