How Often Were The Panthers In Shotgun?

[Chimera]

I tried googling for a breakdown, but all I got was Madden stuff. :(

Considering the source was a reporter, he probably counted every play with the QB not under center as shotgun

[edromeo]

69.4%, good for sixth in the league

Huh?

The Lions led the league @ 68% shotgun how can the Panthers run 69% gun yet be tied for 6th?

Doesn't add up....

Where did you get your number from?

[CRA]

My point being that we didn't run that much... The percentage of this should be low. Which is kinda scary..

We ran 445 times....passed it 519.

And if it you take away the first 2 games, it was almost 50/50 the rest of the season.

everyone, especially peter king says "its a passing league" but i still believe we need a 60:40 run to pass ratio-- with cam running when needed.

assuming we keep stewart, with our backfield and cam- anything under 3rd and 3 should be an automatic gimme, and if we can pick up 7 yards total on the first two downs with chud's mind, then we don't deserve any postseason action

also im sure this season chud will use some old tricks like how he used LT, throwing TD's. out of all the rb's i feel dwill would be the best option, then tolbert.

not sure you can simply rank them and give the one preference over the other. williams and stewart have posted similar statlines. deangelo has proven a little bit better cutting to the outside and in open space, while stew is a little better between the tackles (and at breaking tackles.)

tolbert is the wildcard here. undoubtedly we'll see him line up at RB more than once, but because he was brought in to play fullback, there's no reason we shouldn't expect to see him on the field with either williams or stewart almost every time he's out there.

on paper we will be almost unstoppable offensively.
