Anyone pissed off about Moore only getting 20 attempts

[Sloth]

Shut up.

We were playing the Bucs. Quick, what's the common theme in our win streak against them?

I want Fox gone too, but stick to realistic gripes. Dead season or no, he's going to try to do what's best to win a game.

[IceWhiteice]

terrible play calling as usual

[Fox007]

Well at least he was accurate with his 20 attempts

[E CaT PanTHer]

It's not about Moore having 20 attempts, the thing that I constantly scratch my head over is the play calling given the circumstances. It's too predictable.

[Argus Plexus]

The officiating was awful today.

The pizza I ate gave me gas.

No.

Our gameplan/philosophy regardless of Fox's presence or not, is to run the ball, It is our main reason of success for the past 2 years.

You do not need a Peyton Manning esque, throw the ball 35+ times QB to have success with this team...It's more of a luxury really, especially for this team. As a matter of fact a QB like Kyle Orton would do wonders in our run first, throw second offense.

So pertaining to the topic while I personally would have enjoyed to se Matt throw 30+ times you are only asking for trouble, especially since in our playbook I'm willing to bet you can count how many passing plays we have with your hands.

So no.

Ooh, ooh -- is it successfully running the ball?

20 throws is not just the magic Jake number but for a Carolina QB in this offense. QBs simply should be the star if things are working....they should pretty much go unnoticed.

I am not pissed off we throw 20 times so much as when we ran and passed. The playcalling was awful and Moore wasn't put in good position to throw most of the day. The line was porous and stewart and sutton did most of the damage by themselves. They didn't have many great holes and the protection was poor. Moore didn't screw up and had a passer rating of 73. Its sad when that is pretty good for us this year.

I dont know if I was pissed. I was angry on the one 3rd and 8 when they were in FG range and they just ran it. That pissed me off. I know that is what Fox does so I wasnt surprised.

i don't often agree with you but since I do here....I figured I would acknowledge it.

same scenario can be said for Jake in many games....he hasn't been put in good position either a lot. When the run is working they ask Jake to throw. When they ask Jake to throw...a lot of times it was set up for disaster from the beginning.

However, it is what it is. When put in a bad position...Jake normally does really bad things...and then he would also do it when things actually setup pretty good for him. Moore didn't hurt us today (even w/ the pick).....it wasn't a game changer. That is what the QB has to do.....he is going to be put in a lot of bad scenarios....he just has to escape them w/o hurting the team and make plays on the rare plays he is put to have success.

If you are talking about our last score, that didn't bother me at all. I was glad they didn't risk an interception. A nearly automatic FG that puts us up by two scores? In today's game, thats a big gain. IMO, it was a good call. Against another team with a better offense, perhaps not. But for todays game, it was the way to play it.

I understood it. I still didnt like it :-) I just would have liked them to try and get a 1st down. They are 4-7.
