The mastermind play calling of Shula

Recommended Posts

@BobbyRosinski: Watching some more Panthers. Biggest play of game was 1st & 10 Car at Seattle 41 with 7:40 left in the 3rd. Panthers down 14-10

@BobbyRosinski: Newton goes to pass and only WR on field is Bersin. Really Brenton Bersin. Cam ends up getting sacked. Got Shula'd

He calls the plays after seeing the personnel on the field.

"Let me see... I only see Bersin out there... Power Route to Bersin!"

What? Haha no he doesn't. He controls everyone that goes on the field for each offensive play unless directly overruled by Rivera.

What you describe would be mindnumblingly retarded. Why would you have a setup where a coach had to call a play based on the players put onto the field by a completely different coach?

Edit: Positional coaches also have some input but ultimately it's Shula's decision.

Or being 1st and 10 it was a run play that Newton checked to a pass. Use your brain.

 

Well according to Rivera, Newton has one or two "Shula Approved" audible options when allowed. Assuming this was the case, the hot route to stud receiver Bersin was the "check" that Shula allowed Newton to switch to from the favored run call. In either case, it's complete garbage. 

 

Good job making no point.

Broken plays happen. They likely happen due to the QB.

    • Same... With the personnel the Niners had, that defense could have been historically good in the right hands. Under Wilks they were certainly good, they didn't quite rise to that level. Honestly, I see Wilks kinda like I see Rivera: fantastic person, decent head coach. Skill wise, phenomenal DB coach, so-so DC. His greatest strength is his leadership. Hard to find many better in that department. In the Xs and Os / execution area though, not as good. Bottom Line: Wilks is the sort of coach that needs a staff that excels in those aspects of the game where he's weaker. But, like Rivera, I don't know that he scouts assistants very well. That as much as anything might be why he's not in the NFL now.
    • Clearly the best outcome for us is a Giants W. A spot or two difference in the 4th round is inconsequential. Just look at the trade value charts. A spot or two at the top of the 1st means a LOT. A spot or two in the mid-rounds? Virtually nothing.
    • Agree. I don't think I have ever heard him say anything positive, at any time, about the Panthers. Best expectation is no mention at all.
