Hurry up Offense.

I thought one of the few bright spots last Sat. vs. the Ravens, was when the offense went hurry up. I thought it caught the Ravens completely off guard. I think Jake performs better at this pace, which matches his personality. I'm listing below some of the reasons I think we could benefit more by going to the Hurry Up more often.

1) As I mentioned before, Jake is more effective when he's not forced to slow down. Think about how many drives he's led before the half and at the end of games.

2) Changes the snap count and keeps the Defense guessing. How many times have we seen teams in the backfield due to the same snap count?

3) The RB's all are capable of splitting out or catching the ball out of the backfield and (I know I'm gonna get dogged for this statement!) D'lo or Goodson can run wildcat. Just another wrinkle for teams to gameplan against.

4) 2 of 3 TE's are quick enough to split out, I think this would suit Rosario perfectly (like the Colts use Dallas Clark)

5) I'm not saying throw the ball every down, you can run the ball effectively in a hurry up. I would however like to see the Offense open it up a little more only if its screen passes to Smitty or the backs. Catching a Defense in run stop mode and then just hurrying up to the line, would open up alot of downfield opportunities.

You know what? I'll take our slow-ass, methodical, run Williams and Stewart down their throats offense every day. Do that all game, and when Jake DOES hurry up he'll be deadly.

Start out with the hurry-up or go to the pass-first mentality early and watch him throw five INTs. :)

Hurry-Up Offense or No-Huddle Offense? There is a difference.

Hurry-Up offense usually has predetermined plays already set and the main goal is to take as little time off the play and time clock as possible.

No-Huddle offense usually has plays called and changed at the line of schimmage and is able to take as much time off the play clock as the quarterback wants.

No team can run the hurry-up more than a couple of minutes per half or their offensive line, espcially one like the Panthers have, would be completely exausted by the end of the first quarter.

And while I am a supportor of Jakes, I don't think he has the ability to run a no-huddle offense ie the colts for an entire game.

My point being run the hurry up more than twice a game, maybe twice a half. Don't get me wrong I love seeing us run the ball also but its like teams know whats coming. I look too see Davidson going to this more often this year. As far as Jake is concerned, I'm not a big fan either but lets put him in a comfort zone. Thanks for the feedback!

You should write a letter to Jeff Davidson quoting this entire idea. Awesome idea, I never really thought of it, and your absolutely right. Its dead on, Jake performs better at a faster pace, that is probably why he has all those 4th quarter comebacks. We do have a great skill to run the no huddle, so maybe we see this sometimes.

    • I swear there are like 6 people on this godforsaken website that must be paid just to piss and moan all day in these stupid ass threads, for years on end, about fugging everything. Always something to whine about. If y'all aren't getting paid to professionally bitch about this team at every opportunity you need to reevaluate your lives because that ish is pathetic for grown ass men to be doing.  There are at least 50 other voices of reason in here. They're all smarter than you kneejerking perpetual contrarians. It's a fine contract. Our previous dipstick GM ran this team like some college kid that read a few Investopedia articles on technical trading and started throwing daddy's money at every positive indicator he saw - look what happened when Fitt drafted by RAS because he couldn't identify talent if it was footballs deep in his wife in the war room. It's a football team and this preoccupation with analytics, in this instance the positional value of RBs, is like 30% of the equation. It's not wholly inaccurate, but it requires a lot of context and, going back to the trading analogy, an understanding of the fundamentals. This is a sad, crappy organization that needs some winning attitudes in the locker room and on the field. $15 mil guaranteed over two years is nothing compared to the intangible value he brings, and the message the contract sends, not to mention his stellar work ethic and consistent improvement. 
    • It boils down to either you believe in Chuba or you don't. For myself I 100% believe in him that he's a hard worker and a leader we want in the locker room. The issue is this investment paired with all the money we have tied up in the oline now (150 million in a single offseason) and Center is still a position of need going forward. Then there is the matter of the defense. Other than Derrick Brown and Jaycee Horn and maybe Wallace who has promise it's basically a wasteland. That cannot be understated. Dan Morgan is walking a tightrope here. Unequivocally he cannot play games with this QB room next season. Leave no stone unturned creating a real competition and actually have a real fallback plan.
    • To end all questions, I think we should start him rest of season as long as he does not hinder the young WR's and TE's development. In other words as long as he does not go back to super awful possibly worst QB ever plays scared and afraid Bruce that we saw most of his career so far then let him keep playing this season and make a decision on what to do with him in the off season. If he grows great , if he stays the exact same as he is now with no more development then ship him out. If he goes back to classic Bryce then sit him again and at seasons end ship him out. If by some snow balls chance in hell he actually develops and looks good by seasons end then hang onto him. Simple as that really. He controls his own destiny on what happens to his career here is my opinion.
