We could have the best 'Ace' formation in the NFL

[Highlandfire]

holy poo. Can you imagine? If this OL is back to speed, then you have Olsen on one side, Shockey on the other, Both of our RB's are back in the fold, Steve smith is back...whew!!

I really think we must go with the 'Ace' as our base formation esp. with this rookie QB. Wow, just fuging WOW!

[Highlandfire]

and yes I know you only have one RB in the Ace at one time, I am referring to we have both back on the roster.

If we only had a quality QB it would be much better for us. But hey, his contract will be an easy one to cut with the new CBA rules in 3 years.

But...lets focus on the positive, this Ace Formation should really be damn good.

I suspect we will see lots of 12, 21, 22, and 11 personnel groupings this year. The ace formation is simply one of the many options available in either 12 or 11 personnel groupings. (for those not familiar with the terms, the first number refers to the number of running backs in a play and the second one refers to the number of TEs. If you count 5 players on the line and the quarterback makes 6 total, add in the running backs and tight ends, that tells you how many receivers are left when you subtract from 11.) So in 12 personnel you have 2 wide receivers and in 11 personnel you have 3 wide receivers. In 10 personnel you have a single running back, no tight end and 4 wide receivers.

For those who care..................

I have been wanting to see the Panthers run out of single back sets for awhile now. Deangelo is a threat inside and out and can catch, Stewart ran from a singleback formation in college.

I think that it would really help out having a rookie QB and being able to disguse run/pass plays with that formation.

See I am thinking in the 11 we will see olsen or Shockey (most likely olsen) split in the slot off the LOS with shockey still on the line.
