Panthers offense leads the league in 2015.

I am sure the front office had nothing to do with putting an offensive system that relies on a strong physical defense that can create takeaways so the offense can lean on the run, run option, and play action in a terrible spot.

While I do not care for Shula's philosophy, I do know he is not the problem. If the defense performs, then the offense will perform at a high level like it did in 2015. If the defense struggles, it will come down to close games in the 4th quarter.

If you believe the Panthers defense is going to give up 400 points per season, then a Shula offense will not be able to combat that struggling defense and play well from behind on a consistent basis - most offensive systems would struggle. In fact, if you believe this is the type of defensive deficiency the Panthers have to plan for, then they need to replace Shula, Cam, KB, Funchess, Ginn, Brown, Oher, and Remmers on offense. Why? Because they are all inconsistent players in the passing game and will always struggle if the defense struggles.

Fix the defense, and they will fix the offense.

You can not rail on offensive inconsistency by Shula when playing from behind and not be critical of every skill player in the passing game outside of Olsen. I guarantee you that any OC coming in with a focus on consistency will immediately want to replace Cam, KB, Funchess, Ginn, Oher, and Remmers.

The front office built a 50/50 offense and Shula engineered around that personnel. It is not his fault the offense is dependent on strong defense to set them up and keep them from playing from behind.

I get what you are saying, but some games this year the defense  put us in good spots to win some games but the O sputtered and we lost. KC comes to mind. The offense has been off this year. Many games where we couldn't do anything on offense. I don't know what the problem is.

Man our offense looks slow and lathargic. Mike Shula is a direct reflection of this. If he isn't the only other person l can point to is Ron Rivera. Maybe they both need to go. But l would fire Mike Shula first for sure.

Same offense as last year, just added KB

And took away a healthy consistent OL starting 2.5 games into the season. Cothery gone can't be completely ignored either.  It's not the same other than KB.....and it started out details ok
