Panthers' Triple Option


The Special One

Recommended Posts

I don't know why the option gets a knack for being "simple", "nonviable", "college-only", and "unsophisticated" when it doesn't seem more gimmicky or less technical than any other offense. I also don't understand why the quarterbacks that run this style of offense are considered unskilled and incapable of running a pro-style offense.

From reading that article, it's obvious the QB has to make smart decisions, needs quick reactions, needs to make defenses respect his passing and running ability, and is given a ton of responsibility for the successful development of the play. I'm glad this team isn't afraid to break the mold, and I'm glad we're making defenses respect and be terrified of this "inferior" offense run by a "college" quarterback.

I wonder if we'll be able to execute our option against the Giants. The Saints zone defense is just terrible because their players have not even learned it yet, but the Giants defense is tough. I think if we can run our option against the Giants, then we can run it on just about any team.

    • I just switched to prime video with fanduel south. Will I be able to watch the Canes playoff games still?
    • I mean, you can use that "logic," but the problem is that most practice squad players, backups or average guys don't put the play on film that Wharton did when given their opportunities.  Perhaps you'll end up right, but I don't think that just because a guy has been in a rotation makes him inherently less productive because he gets more snaps. I will say that the KC fans I've seen on social media loved him, and considered him their second best DT,  regardless of his "rotational" status, and generally considered him a dawg, so I'm going to give him the benefit of doubt until he shows otherwise.
    • Did I miss something?  The people we have developing players now are not the ones we've had in the past so I don't know what the heck people are talking about when they say we are not good at developing players right now.  We only have one year to go on.  Canales likes young players or players who are on an upward trajectory, especially in FA this year.  Past QB's and what he's done with Bryce are good examples. Tershawn Wharton - 26 Tre'von Moehrig - 25 Pat Jones II - 26 Bobby Brown III - 24 Michael Jackson - 28 Jaycee Horn - 25 Tommy Tremble - 24 We missed on Milton Williams but he's 26. Everyone else we picked up are on 1 year deals.  The Panthers new front office and Canales absolutely scream developmental team. Pick 8 (stay) Tier 1 Elite - Abdul Carter, Travis Hunter and Mason Graham Tier 2 Elite - Jalon Walker, Mykel Williams, Will Johnson Trade down: There are quite a few really good players that fit us at Edge, DT, S and WR mid to late 1st and high 2nd.  Some combos that would be possible that I really like.  Imagine getting 2 of these guys by trading down. Stark, Pierce Jr, Golden, Scourton, Grant, Emmanwori, Ezeiruaku, Umanmielen, Deone Walker, Harmon and this is just off the top of my head.
