Steve Smith Said Let CMC Be A RB

I don't like Shula and I didn't like the game plan we had with the Falcons but Smith is wrong. CMC is being used right. Our offense is set up to use the read option and control the clock not huge splash plays. Only problem is when you do that you put pressure on the defense and can only make little mistakes. It's a terrible idea imo because it's playing not to lose. Without going into a huge in depth explanation here's why it's not working and why CMC doesn't work. 

For the offense to work the defense needs to limit opposing offenses to the 50 yard line. Has that happen? 

For the read option to work Cam needs to make the right choice every time. Has that happened? 

For this offense to score points the defense needs to generate turnovers. Has that happened? 

For CMC to be effective WR he needs to work in space. Has that happen? 

Smith is right about one thing. Shula isn't creative. He doesn't have plays that free his star players. His calling is down right predictable and he doesn't utilize his personal wisely. 

Snake you do know your first and last statement contradicted each other. If cmc is used right then how is shula not using him right lol. Maybe if that's the case, we should just keep CMC as a RB and let him run with Armah. Lets go back to simple power football similar to 2013, do play-action and go back to an air coryell style

I figured someone would say that. 

He is being used right to his talent abilities and how Shula has set the system up. How he is using him wrong is by a poor game plan. Like a run on 2nd and short or 5 runs and no passing using a power read option 6 times in a row. CMC really is built for that system even if I'm not a fan but it's pointless if you can't call the right plays. CMC is a Swiss Army Knife, he can attack a defense in any formation. But does it really matter if you can't call good plays? Or would it help if you just limited him to just rushing?

Steve still wants Shula to burn,.. and Rivera,.. probably holds them as much accountable to giving him the boot as Dave,..

and i do too,.. but I want the Panthers to win. Who knows what happens next year.

i wish Steve and Josh had stayed on the team, and Jordan Gross may have played longer if not told to take a pay cut. I didn’t care about Deangelo,.. 

Anyone think we might have won that Super Bowl if Steve played? Maybe beat the Seahawks in 2014 and who knows?

i doubt he would have played until now but who knows— Baltimore sucks.
