So when do we see the article come out that Joe Brady went back and watched film of Cam Newton in Mike Shula's offense to find plays for him?

I'm waiting patiently for the article that says Joe Brady went back and watched film of Cam in his time on the Panthers in the past. Maybe it is published by the team itself, maybe published by Joe Person at the Athletic, or who knows. Is it coming??

And should Brady do this? I think of course he should. Cam had a lot of success running the read-option offense for the Panthers in the 2010s, especially in the red zone. He doesn't have his favorite play-action target in Greg Olsen anymore, but there's a lot more to work with weapons wise than say, the 2017 season when the 11-5 Panthers rolled into New Orleans for a playoff game with Brenton Bersin, Kaelin Clay, broken foot Olsen, and banged up shoulder Devin Funchess as his top receivers. Side note what a sad day that was to watch, a day when Cam played out of his mind but his receivers just couldn't get the job done.

Joe Brady should have far more creativity as a play-designer than Mike Shula did. But with the turnover generating defense the Panthers have this season, I hope we can generate some 2015 vibes from this offense.

I’m channeling my inner Bill Belicheat, but you could look at any single wing film from the 1940’s if you need any inspiration on how to use Cam as a runner. 
 

Cam’s arm looked good on that one deep throw to DJ and he’s still got gas in the tank when it comes to running the ball. The hard part is keeping both him and CMC healthy for the next 7 weeks.

If you want to look for inspiration from prior years, you should probably look at 2018.  Prior to TJ Watt ending Cam's shoulder, our offense looked really smooth.  Watch the Ravens game from that year if you want to see what Cam can look like with less Shula and more playmakers.

I mean I know everyone hates Shula as OC but…

Cam went 51-28-1

Playoffs 4 of 5 years 

MVP

it’s not the worst place to look for some plays.  

That is a reluctant pie but there was some good with all these coordinators. Shula gets a lot of hate but the run design concepts were always praised by Greg Cosell with NFL Films.

Like I said in a bother thread Chud and Norv had him at his best. The film that should be looked at is 2011-2012 and 2017. Those seasons were instrumental in how Cam developed from a Qb perspective not just a talent perspective. 2015 was the best year he played not relying on the rest of the team because he was the offense that year.

This is exactly what I was going to say.

2018 pre Watt Cam would be pretty damn nice.

      By rayzor · Posted

      yeah. winter backpacking trips were the most miserable and amazing experiences. same with the coldest and snowiest hunting  experiences. i love being in it. makes for incredible memories. the worse it was, the more i ended up loving it. made the greatest memories.  i just want to get out of it afterwards.

      I forgot about Jackson...definitely elite.  The sad part of your list is that 2 of them were 'there for the taking for the Panthers'.  Rumor has it that Hurney loved Herbert and was vetoed on trying to trade up.  And rumor has it that Frank & McCown wanted Stroud.  I believe both rumors.

      Snow in the high country

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
