People know they can't play the game at the NFL (or NBA or major league) level.  I mean, most folks with a reasonable amount of sanity realize they aren't 6'5, 260 with 10% body fat with insane strength and quickness.

 

But...  everyone knows they can coach better than (fill in the blank).  Because, you know, they watch a lot of (insert sport here) on TV, or they played it in high school.

 

I guess as a high school coach I have a little bit of insight from the other side.  I certainly don't agree with every decision Ron Rivera makes, or Roy Williams or Coach K.  But jeepers, some of the gameday posts are completely asinine.

 

Guess I better get used to it, since high school basketball season starts in just a couple of weeks.

Most people dont deal with having to make a instant decisions.  So most will choose the one that is do or die instead of the one that gives you the best chance to succeed.  It was the correct decision to kick the fg and give you team multiple chance to win instead of risking it all in one play.

I haven't read a game day thread all season, just for that reason.  I went to game day chat once or twice just for the entertainment value and just figured my blood pressure was a bit too low and that certainly helped.

 

Some of these high school parents must post on these boards. I honestly think they think we should throw a deep pass about every two plays.You should hear them in the stands. And some don't even know the rules.  Cray.

 

I'm preaching to the choir a bunch in here.

 

Oh and I almost forgot.  Fire Rivera.  I hear The Golden Calf of Bristol is looking for a job.

If you joined All Pro you could talk with people that actually love the Panthers and realize that not everything is perfect

    • Agreed on the last part. They can’t afford to lose all these games with Martin and Perets. 
    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
