Top 3 issues to fix on this team.

Recommended Posts

Wave a magic wand and tell me the top 3 specific things you would fix. Not "the offense".

 

Mine: 

 

1. Cam throws the floaters on target. It seemed his passes with more zip and less arch looked good yesterday. Anything with air under it sailed long. 

2. More diversity on offense. Less workload on CMC. Get Scarlett in the game and spell CMC some. 

3. Convert on 3rd downs. That really killed us yesterday. Have to get off the field and get the defense rested.

Tempo, Simplicity, and confidence on offense.

Less zones, less zone coverage, and less cushions that are given in zone. I hate the zone when it’s this predictable. You almost knew woods or kupp were gonna go for 7-9 every catch. I honestly think we’ve some bad ass corners, let them rock a little.

Pretty accurate. Pooing this post or not should be some sort of litmus test

This seems like two separate issues tbh.

Insofar as more diversity, sure, would love to see a couple read-option looks . . . a couple "why not" deep shots . . . etc.  However, breaking out the wildcat / read option on the goal lines was pretty damn creative.  So there is some truth there, but not so much that it was crippling.

Less workload on CMC, tbh, is something that "someone" (not saying you, I don't know where it comes from) keeps dragging out and it's bat(@*% crazy.  I ran the numbers in another thread you can dig up if you want, but basically CMC (using 2018 numbers as a basis), is seeing significantly fewer touches than Emmitt Smith or rookie LT saw under OC Norv. 

I wasn't sure how to take Head Coach Norv's stats, because for the most part HC Norv either didn't have a "world class" back or had a "world class" back with an almost equally "world class" backup (aka LT + Sproles in SD).

Just to bring it all home, in 2015, the height of "Double Trouble", Stew got 258 touches, MeAngelo got 240 and Cam got 132 for a backfield total of 640 touches.  CMC had 326 last year.  CMC is fine.  It wouldn't hurt us to get a handful of touches offloaded to another back, but how about we do that when we are sewing up big wins, eh?

1. Pass protection

2. Play calling - seems like the offense has transitioned from Cam or bust to CMC or bust. Samuel should have way more than three touches, in my opinion he should be WR1 and DJ should be WR2.

3. Ron Rivera actually learning from his mistakes but who am I kidding

    • couple more things re: extreme hots and colds and the EV use tax. In the winter months, I can confirm that the range isn't as far, but it has never given me range anxiety except the first time I made a trip to Myrtle Beach and wasn't accounting for it. I just had to detour and use a Supercharger for 5 min and the rest of the trip was no issue. Summer months have never been an issue at all.  NC has a $140.25 EV Registration fee every year, which amounts to the gas/use tax for ICE.        
    • Just seeing this thread, and after browsing, I figured I would drop in and add my 2 cents. I hope this answers some of the questions or misconceptions that I have noticed.   I have owned a 2021 Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus since Dec 2020, and love it. Absolute best car I have ever personally owned.  Current daily driver of 100 miles round trip to work and back.  Level 2 Charger at home in Garage.   The battery in my car was still designed to charge to ~80% for daily usage, only going above for trips etc preferably. The current batteries they recommend to charge to 100%.   1st year was in an apartment, 40 miles round trip at that point. Would highly depend on public level 2 charger at the library near me, and would also use 110v at work occasionally on weekends. Supercharger for travel. It wasn’t the most optimal, but I made it work. No maintenance in this year outside of tire rotations.   Years 2+, I am now driving 100 miles round trip to work. Level 2 charger in my garage.  I get home from work at ~25% charge, and charge back to my daily 80% in ~3.5hrs. On 110v, you can expect that will be over 24hrs. So for daily driver usage you will want a level 2 charger. For piddling around town, 110v will probably be fine. I had a part fail that was covered under warranty, and tire replacement/rotations for maintenance.     Tires: I have 99k+ miles on my car currently. I will put my 2nd set of tires on it at ~110k.   When I have had people ask me how I like my car, I always show them these 2 pages from the Tesla app. The numbers there are based on what I pay for kWh ($0.11) vs est cost of gas in NC at $3.93 per gallon. People who are concerned about the higher cost vs ICE probably don’t figure in the gas savings, or time/cost getting oil changes etc.  My car payment isn’t that much higher than any other car I’ve owned (shrug).   I know this is personal, and I don’t like the guy either, but I would not let Musk keep me from owning the brand. Thats like Henry Ford keeping you from owning Ford for, well….   Tesla currently have the best charging infrastructure for travel. Longest trip I have made is to Williamsburg VA from Triangle region. No issues getting there, no range anxiety etc. Sure stops can take longer for charging etc, but they are mostly setup at restaurants, gas stations etc for breaks, but ideally you’re not charging back to full at a stop. The best way to travel is to charge enough for you to get to the next stop. It’s faster at the batteries get juice faster when they are lower.  I have never seen another brand using Tesla superchargers tho I have heard it’s coming. But I have seen assholes pull their boats horizontally in charging stations 😉   If you are curious about how an EV would play into travel, check out https://abetterrouteplanner.com . Put in any EV you want, it will show you the path, time and time per charge etc. Great tool.
