Is there any chance at all that Shula will be fired soon?

Another blowout next weekend might do it.

Nah. Like the poster above said; I think Shula is calling the game he is being told to call.  All Rivera wants out of the offense is for them to score a few points, and not turn the ball over.  Shula's doing exactly what is asked of him, so no, I don't see him being fired soon.

Chud.. We no longer have the defense to play ground and pound, time of possession football. Shula's offense wont work anymore, what we need now is high octane, gun slingng Chud offense, its very realistic he comes back next season

No. It isn't realsitic to see Chud again. You don't solve problems by adding problems. Chud sucked. He was just the opposite ending of the spectrum

[Bj-Monster23]

Do you think his calls would look as bad if he had a professional offensive line and a more diverse array of weapons at Cam's disposal?

I completely agree with you.

How did Chud suck? His results here speak for themselves.

Not a chance he hits the skids this early in the season, especially seeing as how were still near the top in the division. I give him till at least week 6, if things have not improved by then he's gone

[Toker Smurf]

I honestly think Shula is calling the kind of game he is told to call. The fact it happens to coincide with what he would probably do anyway is merely happenstance.

Why? Rivera specifically brought Chud in to run an aggressive offense. He promoted Shula because Cam was already familiar with him and the terminology.

Normally I don't jump on fire coaches band wagons, but this is different.  Something needs to done.  Either they let someone else call plays by him stepping don or something or he gets fired.  I just don't understand how with Olsen and the WR's we cant score more points.  This putrid O is all on Shula, and I think it is time he goes. 

 

Agreed.

 

Sometimes you need to do something to boost up the teams morale, and put them on notice.

 

Ron shouldn't worry about his status (such as last time when he didn't hire Hue Jackson, maybe fearing his job). He has contract security this time if he's fired. Just get a damn competent OC, who can read the game and be versatile, and not committed to one style of play (regardless of what's happening on the field).

 

I think a new OC, would/could do wonders for the OL, receivers and Cam (not sure about the RB's with them being so injured and washed up).

 

[FootballMaestro]

If something's not done soon, Cam's high level QB play will go UN-noticed, and for naught, cause the team can't score any points or win any games.

 

But it's clear, both Cam and WR's have ability this year, that they didn't last year (Smith or no Steve Smith).

Maybe once the defense stops somebody

[Panthers9503]

Not a chance. JR is running a business. Paying 2 individuals to do 1 job is bad business practices.

[NC'SFNST]

I felt so conflicted today watching Smitty catch those TD's. I was happy for him and sad for us at the same time...We needed that 139 receiving today....

[Panthers9503]

Cam has looked better than he ever has throwing the ball, and this is the best receiving core he's ever had....

Yet this is the worst Carolina's offense has ever looked with him....

Shula is terrible.

He's horrible that's it
