Geoff Schwartz, the true Nostradamus of our time

[Ricky Spanish]

Not sure if some of you remember him, but he used to be a RT for us for a few years. He was pretty good, got hurt a lot, then left for greener pastures where he excelled, got hurt more, and then retired. Now he's a writer/analyst and clairvoyant. Check out this article from back in September. More specifically, check out this particular part:

The Panthers installed a new version of their offense. Newton then missed the entire offseason program and most of camp, and suddenly they have the 28th ranked offense through three weeks.

I live in Charlotte where I dabble in some local media. From the moment the Panthers drafted those guys, coupled with the fact Cam was rehabbing from surgery, I said it would take eight to 10 weeks of the regular season to figure out how to run that offense efficiently.

I based that estimate off all the new offensive installs I’ve been a part of — 2011 in Carolina, 2013 in Kansas City and 2014 in New York. You have to see every play vs. multiple looks and figure out what you’re good at. That estimate is also with a healthy quarterback who excels in the offense you desire to run.

By gawd, that dude done called it. Maybe Shula isn't a complete putz and the offense just needed time to figure their poo out.

Hopefully what we have been seeing the past few weeks continues into the future.

I sure hope so.

Nah, he's still a dumbass.  But point taken.

As bad as people believe Shula is, he is a better NFL offensive coordinator than pretty much 98% people here are at message board posting.

Jimmy Clausen is a better QB than 99% of this board as well. So what?

New offense? Were still running most of the same stuff we did the past two seasons, with less deep shots and more checkdowns

 

The coaches pretty much said screw it we have to run Cam

I’m the first to acknowledge Shula is better at his job than I am.

He still is a life-long underachiever.  Look what he has to work with and tell me their isn’t someone that could do better.

Hes not good enough for Cam and I hate him.

Translated: if the team doctors hadn't screwed up and sent Cam to surgery in February rather than late March we may very well be 9-1 right now.

Doubt it. The turd I dropped 5 minutes ago can call a better game than Short Bus Shula.
