With our offense switching to 12 personnel...

Would it make sense drafting Kelvin Benjamin and playing him as a tweener?  Our offense will be deadly... Most of the time he will draw coverage's by LBs and Safeties and both are mismatch. 

 

Chud ran 12 personnel with Olsen and Shockey.  Our basic formation this year will be:

 

WR1-TE-LT-LG-C-RG-RT-TE-WR2

--------------------QB

--------------------RB

 

Another option is to get a speedy WR in 1st and Troy Niklas in 2nd.

 

12 Personnel offense can also help a lot with bad LT and RT (our current issue).  

 

12 Personnel does not require to have a #1 WR because TE's will likely have more catches.

I get the feeling Gettleman will turnover every stone to find talent..  The obvious downside will be in blocking but if he can find a guy who can get separation in the passing game I think it should be welcomed with an open mind.

Saying we're switching anything is a massive assumption. Dickson could flat out be a back-up with 0 two TE sets.

 

Why assumption when Shula said we're switching?

 

PS: Dickson is a back-up... he sucked in Baltimore for the past 2 years and failed when he got a chance to shine.

I'll tell Shula when we're switching or not.

 

 

 

Panthers OC Mike Shula plans to use more "12 personnel" formations this season, with two tight ends and one running back.

It's one way to help mask Carolina's wide receiver deficiency, as the "12" package only utilizes two wideouts. The Panthers signed Ed Dickson to complement Greg Olsen in the short term, but Dickson is a flawed player. We would not be surprised if Carolina targeted tight ends over wide receivers early in May's draft. Notre Dame TE Troy Niklas could be on their radar at No. 60 overall.

Am I the only person scared of Benjamin in the 1st? He's got potential obviously, but I don't think he shows it next year. We need a player in the 1st who is coming in ready to perform. 

 

 

We still need a burner as our #1 WR

 

Speedy #1 will require double coverage with Safety over the top.  This means LB will have to cover TE... a mismatch and likely 1st down.

 

If they play nickle defense then you just pound the ball down the middle with Tolbert.  190lbs nickle trying to tackle 260lbs running back is still a mismatch.

    • An odd little vibe I've noticed here of late: some folks are "all or nothing" to an absolutely extreme level when it comes to Bryce. There are, in fact, things Bryce does well. Likewise, there are areas in which he's improved over his time here. He has, on several occasions now, legitimately helped us win games. On the flipside, there have been failures in other areas as well as coaching that we're not in any way his fault.  And finally , it is also genuinely possible that the team may see him as the future, even if we don't. The craziest part, though? It's actually possible that they're right and we're wrong. All of this is true, and more, yet if you accept any of these premises people go from zero to apesh-t in under three seconds 😳 Anything less than total disavowal of Bryce and / or agreement that he's the worst QB of all time and suddenly you're a "stan". Oy 🙄 The reality though?  Bryce is indeed an NFL quarterback. Not a great one, probably backup level good, and I've seen way worse. Now, if you run that statement through your personal Google translator and it comes back with some version of "I want to throw 50 million a year at Bryce for the next 10 years", that's not really my issue it's yours  I don't wanna make him the franchise quarterback, but it's not my call. Win or lose, the team is going to do what they think is best. And as always, if it disagrees with what I think we should do, I'm gonna hope I'm the one who's wrong. Internet clout means nothing. Watching my favorite team win at my favorite sport meas fun 😁
    • I like Icky but he was the wrong tackle to take. Learning run blocking is much easier than learning pass blocking. Cross was pass pro ready. He was the tackle we should have taken without hesitation. 
    • Never saw this angle of the Tyson fight either lol.
