Chud's Offense


Ruff

Recommended Posts

Watching the Patriots play, there seems to be a very similar look to the Panthers new offense, in comparison to the Patriots offense.

There's a lot of shotgun formation, inside hand-offs to the Running Backs, 12-15 sideline routes to the Wide Receivers, and vertical passes to the Tight Ends, especially near the sidelines and in the flats.

I think the Pats offense is what our offense is going to look like when it's all said and done, especially once the screen pass starts working effectively for Cam and the Running Backs.

tl;dr - Our offense will be the most exciting thing in Carolina for as long as Cam's there. CAN'T WAIT.

If Cam proves to be an Above average (not even elite) qb we will be THE most offensively balanced team in the league

Err....I don't know about all that now. Double Trouble have talent, but there are other teams with good or better running games right now. Even though our guys have done amazing in the past, and still have the potential to do it again, the fact is our running game has suffered pretty bad over the recent year, and until we can get it going again and up to that level, I wouldn't make such a statement.

they've been running from the shotgun for years. most of the elite QBs have been doing it a lot recently and last year there were quite a few of th best that were doing it on over 50% of passing downs. peyton did it in 76% of his. we're going to be seeing a lot more of it this year and going forward. it just makes sense that we will see newton using it. it's the best place for a QB to run a passing play. his taking snaps from the shotgun isn't because he's bad at taking them from under center. teams have just found that QBs do better taking it from there.

also, teams have been using the spread for years.

the year the pats set all those records? spread offense.

the year the cards went to the superbowl? spread offense.

new orleans saints high powered offense? a spread

mike vick looking like a real QB last year and eagles having one of the best offensive years they've had in a while? eagles abandoned the WCO and ran a spread.

packers beating the steelers in the superbowl last year? spread offense.

    • Yeah but jumping up in the draft to get a project #2/3 WR is just plain not smart. I am down on XL because the thought was that he could be a potential #1 WR and he has been anything but that so far. Also, the idea of him as a slot is even more upsetting because you pass on several more productive slot guys(McConkey being the most obvious) that were TREMENDOUSLY more NFL ready. I was not a fan of the XL move at the time and I am not a fan of the decision in short term hindsight either. He is just simply going to have to be a guy that proves it on the field to me. McMillian was my #1 WR in this draft and I was a pro-McMillian guy. However, he isn't gonna get treated with baby gloves either. We are in the era of rookie WR's putting up 1k+ yd seasons with regularity. He's going to(barring injury) have to be one of the top 2 or 3 WR's in this class in terms of production. And that's being very generous to him. He really needs to be THE guy from this class. It isn't like he is gonna have a lot of guys taking catches away from him.
    • Thought this was an interesting moment of candor. See the 2:00 min mark. TD said he made the decision that he wanted T-Mac as our 1st round pick back in January. Dan chimed in and said he made the decision early as well (indicating the same time frame).
