14 turnovers is the problem. Not Shula.

Regardless of how you feel about the play calling this season, the sole reason for our loses has been losing 14 possessions. You can't win when you are losing the turnover battle and that has nothing to do with Shula. That has literally everything to do with player execution. If our players are giving away opportunities we will lose. Simple as that.

 

We are dead last in the league for turnovers with 14. We are tied for second to last in turnover differential with -7. 

 

If we can turn the ball over less and take it away more we will win. We led the league in takeaways last year. That has been the single biggest and most impactful difference between last season.

Don't get me wrong, Shula and the coaching is only half the problem. Our boys are committing stupid penalties, dropping passes, not executing, blowing assignments, etc. However, our coaching plays a factor in why our offense has been horrendous.

Completely agree. All the suck is feeding off each other.

I'm not happy with all of Shula's play calls.  I just think it's silly that he's getting the bulk of the blame for the reasons the OP stated.  This train can still get fixed as long as the players can hold onto the ball and not make stupid false starts/holds or any other stupid penalty.

    • For the silly people that worship her it will be that.  The Coleman 'legend' thing, they did that with another fairly average player that was here and I sort of mocked or questioned the 'legend' status. Instantly caught crap for insulting someone's favorite Panther. So okay, Kurt Coleman is a Legend. 
    • You allow him to compete--you all are talking as if I am proposing making him the starter. Give him a new coach, new weapons, good OL, etc. and see what happens. You are saying, "Well Damn.  It did not work for 3 guys..."  Right now, our C is injured, we lost our top 2 WRs.  Better question:  If you need a QB, Why would you not take a chance on bringing in a QB who was a former first rounder, a good arm, intelligence, mobility, youth, etc.  and see how he does out of NY--with a better OL, better running game, better receivers.  I am not saying give him a 10-year contract, I am saying give him a chance. You act like there is no improvement on offense here--it was a 2 year process, and next year is year 2.  To me, how can you sit there with Bryce and an opportunity to sign a veteran QB on the cheap comes available and you say--"Not us. We're good.  We are waiting for Patrick Mahommes."  Jone's problem is obviously mental--and he has little support.  Why is this so frigging hard to comprehend.  It is called "bottom fishing" and it is better than sitting in the boat.  
    • I think we're going to fall from behind quite early and be forced to abandon the run game.  3 rushes -2 yards 1 catch -10 yards
