This is not Shula

[tiger7_88]

the scary thing with this is... what if this is shula?  what if rivera had that much influecne in the past, and shula was finally allowed to call whatever he wanted since the season was over anyway?

 

To believe this, you'd have to totally ignore the offense's at all of Shula's past stops.

 

Which kind of makes your assertion hard to believe.

This is probably the silliest thing in have ever heard.

BTW you guys realize Ramsdell has had input on every game plan to date right? We don't have him in a cage in the basement.

You can say Shula had a good game and not have to admit he hasn't been poo most of this season

How is it silly to think that Ramsdell was calling the plays? This is the same Saints D we faced a couple weeks ago and yet we couldn't even muster up a first down. This is the same coordinator that could hardly put together a solid drive and look competent all season. Shula might have been calling the plays (which I don't believe), but he definitely didn't have full control of playcalling and gameplanning like he has in the past.

It is silly because it is nonsensical. If a player has a bad game against a team then plays them later and has a good game, do you think someone else played instead of that player the second time?

Did Ramsdell also call the Bengals and Lions games? They both have decent defenses that we played well against.

Just say Shula had a good game and move on. He will fug up again soon. Maybe next week.

If we struggle next week should we assume Ramsdell went back to the basement and Shula is back?

It is just silly

Anyone who think that wasnt a Shula gameplan wasn't watching. That had Shula all over.

All offenses work when the run works....and opponent has to over play it. Opens up everything.

 

Shula does not open up with passing and rely on deep passes on 2nd and 3rd and short. Shula does not use plays designed to get receivers open. Shula does not let the QB audible to run plays out of passing sets in a tie or with a win. Shula is old school and wins/losses with the OL. Shula does not roll the OL and QB. Shula uses the run to open up the pass. Shula does not use a spread offense.

 

The Panthers used the pass to open up the run and relied on Cam audibling to run plays when the defense gave them openings. The Panthers relied on a spread offense for a majority of the game.

 

The other thing that stuck out was Dorsey was not in Cams ear. Proehl took that spot and they were by each others side talking most of the game. Proehl could be seen running up to Cam and passionately coaching him up as he would come to the sideline.

 

Now go look at the Rams offense from the late 90s. They installed the Rams offense from the late 90s mixed with some run options.

Just Shula hate.

Clear Shula gameplan. Difference was we had a rush attack and the Saints overplayed it. It makes stuff work.

Go watch last season.

I refuse to believe this is a Shula gameplan. I've seen hurry up offense, new signals, giving Cam multiple audibles, not letting up, different option looks, rollouts, bootlegs, screens, hot reads, etc. etc. etc. I even think I saw some things from "the greatest show on turf" today that I havn't seen all year. This has got be Ramsdell and Proehl's work. The offense as a whole just had a different swagger to them and a more energized offense, which usually means a new face is calling plays. I know someone will go into deeper analysis after the game, but this is not Shula's gameplan or playcalling. I refuse to believe it.

Its hard to believe he was even involved.

either way they changed something. finally gave Cam more control for one thing.

[Jon Snow]

Where was this attitude about 6 weeks ago? This team is playing with heart and balls. I saw Rivera giving someone the business over his headset and he also was showing true leadership. I Ricky in Cam's ear all game...what's up with that? Whatever they did I wished they had figured it out a long time ago.

[ThPantherFan]

i think they just said fug it let cam do his thing

 

and this is what happens, huh

 

Probably a lot of truth in that.

They need to keep that up too. It's Cam's 4th year, he should have been had more control of the offense than he has in the past.

last night during halftime of the acc champ game they did a tribute to cam's auburn year...shula must have seen it and remembered/seen for the first time or whatever what cam can do if you just let him play...

[Panthers8969]

for some reason the past 2 weeks when we are 3 and 2 we go for 50 yard bombs down field whhhy...

 

 

bc kb was open and cam delivered a perfect throw. Not his fault kb didn't catch it. If he did you'd be all for it complimenting cam's decision making

[nosuchthingasapanther]

only scanned thru most of this thread. shula called the plays...

Joe Person ‏@josephperson · 4h4 hours ago

Rivera on Shula: "Mike's called good games. It was good to see us complete one."

two reasons why the offense looked the way it looked...

1. the saints' defense sucks ass. period.

2. jonathan stewart was the focus from snap one. from the play action passes to the read option, the defense focused on him and paid for it all game long.

How many runs went for 0-1 yards?

Makes a world of a difference. Impacts everything
