Is our offense predictable or not?

I think a lot of the calls are more questionable than predictable. Like if a team is getting constant pressure up the middle with some really good DTs he will try to run it up the middle with CMC, or call a long developing play when Cam is getting sacked constantly, or call a qb bootleg a few plays after Cam hurt his ankle. I just feel like he has plays he is going to run no matter what is happening during the game. I didn't see many attempts at making adjustments until he called those quick passes down the field during our last drive that actually worked. So the play calling may not be predictable, but seems questionable to me. Hopefully he will correct this as the season goes on.

My football hatin wife can predict Shula's playcallings, that should tell you something.

 

Btw that is a poor stat to use pass vs rush %.

How about 1st down 2nd down 3rd down breakdown? 

I did break it down.  if you want more of a breakdown just look at the site I referenced.  There is everything you could want to find and more.  The problem is that with only 2 games in the books there isnt that enough of any one situation to get too specific as the n is pretty low.

Actually you analysis is pretty off.  If a team is getting pressure up the middle we tend to run around the edges.  We have checkdowns and dumpoffs on most plays, the problem is delayed blitzes where the protections werent called presnap and the linemen dont rub off their initial blocks and pick up the blitzer and Cam backs up into pressure and takes a sack instead of throwing into the pressure.  Remember there is more than one type of playcalling.  There is what is called in the huddle and what is called at the line.  In our system it is designed to be flexible and is largely adjusted at the line since we run and pass out of the same formations. But again look at the numbers and then comment instead of the same old stuff and ignoring the numbers.

Everyone is welcome to have different opinions. You don't have to be defensive if they disagree. Cam getting sacked 5 times and hit many more tells me they should be getting the ball out of his hand more quickly. Maybe that's on Cam maybe it's on Shula... It just reminded me of the Super Bowl when Shula refused to give Remmers any extra help, because that would be an adjustment. Like you said though it was just two games, so it's hard to really tell. It didn't help him that his offensive line was struggling and Cam was still rusty on some throws. I hope he starts making adjustments and this offense starts clicking as any fan should...

the Bills game proved we are predictable.

We couldn't even be bothered with trying something new/different against a coach who knew our tendencies. 

This is a downhill ride unless somebody, somewhere in the Panther Origination, figures out how tho play to the strengths.

 

No Cams accuracy makes it appears worse, leaving TDs off the board with overthrows.
