Shula's play calling was not HORRIBLE, just okay

I don't care as long as we keep winning... I'll take it over scoring 30-40 points a game and losing like in 2011.

I think he mixed it up pretty and you can tell he's very confident with this team.

I was very pleased with the offense today. The 4th down call was bad imo. You take the points vs. the Jets.

 

I don't think the actual decision to go for it was a bad idea. The team was driving and Ron wanted to capitalize on the momentum.

 

The playcall, on the other hand, was ludicrous. A 4th and two play that requires Cam to sit in the pocket long enough to get hit from behind is not a good play for that situation.

The only thing that really got me was early in the game when we had Olsen blocking big guys, leading to two sacks.

On 4th and short I don't get why we don't roll Cam out. So many options at that point. Esp near the goal line.

I thought Shula called a great game. The screen to Deangelo was a thing of beauty.

I feel like a lot of the people on this board don't know good play calling from bad so they shout Shula is retarded just cause it's a popular opinion. We need to execute better in the red zone and not let up sacks.

I don't mind going for it, but I thought passing on 4th was stupid.  As was the first 2 passes.  You need 2 yards and have Tolbert and Cam and pass three times in a row?

We beat a defense that is prob better than ours with a offense that is prob not better than the Jets. So yea he did a good job. Not enough cred is given to the coaches for hiding all the weak points of our team.

and there are a lot of weak points.

Um, our defence is absolutely better than theirs and our offence is better at pretty much every single position except maybe RT (I don't know who theirs is but he can't really be worse than Bell) and C might be a push...maybe LT too. WAY better at the most important position - QB.

You remembered one overthrow from an entire game? No wonder not that many people on the game thread today. There weren't much Cam negatives to create thread on, uh? Let me ask you this, no QBs complete 100% of their passes this weekend, how do you think those in-completions happen? Some overthrows, some under-throws, some too far ahead, some behind. Which one is more acceptable for you.

 

Seriously! One overthrow is what stuck in your mind?

 

The original post mentioned the red zone and Shula's play calling. I mentioned a play in the red zone. 

[BigBoss]

I have to say I do wish in the red zone that we would run a lil more bootleg and roll out options. Feels like we don't use that very often.

[Cpt slay a ho]

wtf ok........his play-calling was very good imo

[TheRed]

That overthrow on a wide open screen is inexcusable.

Two weeks in a row he overthrows an awful lob that could get picked easily.

Apparently he is the first, and last quarterback to ever overthrow a pass.

It might be time to see what Derek Anderson has left in the tank guys.

If we had more speed at the 1,2 WR positions I think our play calling would be a lot different. For now it's ground and pound and 10 yard passes.
