I'm not blaming Shula


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

I actually don't think Shula called that bad of a game.

The only call that I can think back at and say '"wth" was the decision to run Stew on 3rd and 3 from the three. I guess you could make a case for the screen on 4th and 25 at the end of the game but to be honest the game was over before that play.

We played well enough to win the game. Outside of our passing game (both blocking and passing) we looked like a solid team.

True. If we were sitting at 6-2 right now, no one would be doing that though.

This team has some serious problems and Marty Hurney isn't the cause for all of them.

But, but, but... Cap restrictions!

Our front office is in fuging disarray. Our GM seems to not even understand his own philosophy ("build the lines up first" what a fuging joke), and our head coach is a passive-aggressive douche.

I think you have lost the ability to comprehend what you read.

 

Whatever.

 

Stay fixated on Gettleman.

 

The play calling was horrendous today. And the Panthers were moving the ball and had chances to win.

 

You can't even blame the offensive personnel (thus Gettleman). It falls squarely on Shula.

 

Rivera hired Shula over Hue Jackson.

 

But you may continue to follow Zod like sheep.

And still, Shula wouldn't be calling such shitty games if he didn't have the "go" from Rivera. 

 

And just as I feared last season, Riverboat was a mirage...  it wasn't real.  It was a guy making decisions completely out of his character out of desperation to keep his job.  Now, he got his extension, and he put it back in cruise control.

lol.

Can't blame the offensive personnel, even though there are nothing but UDFAs protecting Cam and the slowest receivers in the history of football running routes.

I think he believed what his head coach was telling him.

and so, we blame them all. respectfully if shula must go, what does that say about RR? 

Rivera has lost me. I felt this way last year, but I thought he turned it around. In general our game plans done really seem to exist. The other team is usually way more prepared to play us than we are them.

If it was a winning organization, then RR better make the playoffs this season to keep his job.

 

But, because it's JR's organization, Rivera will continue to conservatively pussyfoot his way though the duration of his contract because JR won't pay him to sit at home.

    • Meh I get the intent but signing the OGs at the highest price and coming out with a historically bad D isn't something other teams should do. The Bears took a better route. Older guys but cheaper. Only negative I got there is that they still need to take an OG this year but that 4th is 2026 so it really should be hard for them to make a solid swing before it's a gapping hole again.
    • The coach of the Chicago Bears just referenced the turnaround of the Panthers once they invested in guards.  He then has just signed 2 high profile guards.  How is that not copying the Panthers?  I agree that there is not a lot to copy here, but step back.  We lost Darnold before investing in the OL.  We lost Baker before investing in the OL.  We drafted Bryce before successfully investing in the OL.  We invest in 2 guards.  After a slow start, Bryce ends the season 4-5 and is very close to both Philly and New England.  Later, the new coach of the Bears references the Panthers and how they turned it around after signing high profile guards.  A week or two later, they announce they signed 2 high profile guards.  I think all GMs paid attention to what has happened here.  It may not be the sole basis for their decision, but the defense cost us 2024, not the offense.  In addition, we did it without our #1 WR, a top TE, and the cupboards were pretty bare at WR.  I think they noticed.  As you say, Frank, we shall see.
    • I was about to say he put up a damn near 40 inch vertical and a 10'3 broad jump, even if he only runs in the 4.6 range the guy belongs in the NFL, not sure he will ever be an elite back but he definitely can contribute
