Conservative playcalling from Ron and Shula cost us this game.

[IGSaint]

In the Red Zone? Let's kick...In their territory while down 18...let's kick and miss. Down 18 let's continue to run it.. The pocket is giving cam no protection let's keep him in there instead of rolling out...

 

 

Weak ass poo.

I seem to think the defense let us down more

[TheGreatestOfAllTimeCam]

Yea and all season long we have thrown underneath and its nuetered Cam in the worst way. We have no downfield passing attack anymore.

[Ruff]

A perfect storm cost is this game.

[Snake]

It didnt lose us the game but it sure as hell didnt help.

That too, the defense got absolutely gashed with no pass rush.

Good luck finding one single thing/area that lost us this game.

 

Blame to go all the fugin' round.

If Carolina scores TDs on those first two drives it's a W

When we do throw downfield, there is no accuracy

[IGSaint]

Jesus we are still running the ball.

I know, I hate how all those conservative calls on offense made our defense give up 30+ points.  We got beat because our pass rush couldn't get to Brees and because of that our secondary was exposed.  It also doesn't help that Brees is a stud.

Cam was top10 in 20+ yard plays the last two seasons. It hasn't been until this season that we dramatically dropped off from a down the field pass attack.

[Growl]

I don't disagree that there were times we could been conservative but I think you overestimate our WR corp. They just dont get open. Period. Lafell is a bum.

Of course it doesnt help that on the off chance that they do we also need a perfect storm of goodness with Byron Bell not screwing up the play and Cam happening to see his guy-which frankly, I think he gets so used to them not being open, he doesnt care to bother.

Which frankly I can't say I really blame him.

Thats what I mean.... Newton's deep ball numbers are atrocious this year because they've taken that from him. When he came into the league he threw it down the field a lot. As long as a defensive, scared Head coach is here and Shula his lackey we will continue to have a QB who manages the game and averages like 211 passing per game. It's just stupid. Go get an alex smith
