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.

    • it gets really weird.  But you got a straight shot down to Columbia and I guess straight up to VA if you are the Panthers.   I would assume the western mountains and western NC/SC ends up drawing a line and boxing them out of that area.    
    • Here is how I do it--consider that most teams improve (at least on paper) each year: QB:  Can we say we improved here?  Bryce is trending up and we got him 3 weapons and no more protection.  WASH RB:  Adding Dowdy and Eteinne is a pretty significant upgrade.  UPGRADE TE: Adding a large TE with good hands and initial quickness over Thomas.  Tremble and Sanders should improve.   UPGRADE. OT: Ickey is improving each season and Moton (we hope) will be healed up and ready to go.  WASH OG:  No changes WASH C  : No changes WASH WR: Added the best WR in the draft, one that other teams tried to trade up to get.  Added Horn, and the Colorado WRs were scary good (making Shedeur look good).  XL and Coker will improve.  Lots to like.  UPGRADE In my view, we needed to upgrade WR, TE, and RB.  We did.  I am guessing that C and OT are on the table to be upgraded in 2026. Edge:  Nic and Princely replace Barno and Johnson and join Clowney, Wonnum, and Jones.  Strong room.  Biggest Need.  UPGRADE DL:  We get Brown back, so upgrade without doing another thing.  Wharton, Brown III are both upgrades.  Cam Jackson as a rookie NT---depth and size we did not have.  UPGRADE LB:  We added Rozenboom in free agency, and he was a decent addition.  I think we will add an UDFA.  I think our LB play will improve with better edge, DL, and S play.  SLIGHT UPGRADE CB: Horn and Jackson are back, both following their best seasons.  We added a CB (Devonshire) off the waiver wire and there are a few UDFAs who could actually make the team.  WASH S: Ransom and Moehrig will probably start, with Richardson and (maybe Nick Scott) as depth.  I think we are going to like these Safeties. UPGRADE We had desperate needs for Edge players, IDL, and Safeties.  We upgraded them all.  I am not happy with the ILB situation or CB depth. Special Teams:  Too early to tell. BASICALLY, ON OFFENSE WE UPGRADED WEAPONS IN 3 AREAS WITH 4 PLAYERS.  THE OL IS UNCHANGED. ON DEFENSE, WE UPGRADED DE, NT EDGE, AND S--4 AREAS WITH 4 DRAFT PICKS (edge, edge, safety, and nose) and  5 FREE AGENTS (nose, defensive end/DT, edge, corner, safety)  THAT IS A HUGE OVERHAUL, with starters at DE (2), NT, OLB Edge, and Safety--a total of 6 of 11 players who did not play last season (including D. Brown). We won 5 games last season.  I think we can win 8.5 if all goes well.
    • Thought it was a great draft overall. Only thing I probably would have preferred was Billy Bowman and Malachi Moore in the 4th. Wanted Tez, but Horn is a similar receiver type so good with it if they think he's a better fit.
