And what about the two-minute drill?

Do you think that we should incorporate the two-minute drill in something other than the last two minutes? Other teams have used this to mix it up and confuse opposing defenses who have gotten into a rhythm. Can you see Jake running this effectively, or do you think that it would just be getting a little too "cute"?

If memory serves, they've thrown it into the 3rd a couple of times but it's rarely used unless the chips are down. I think davidson is a bit of a fan of the quick strike offense though so I wouldn't be suprised to see it this coming season since he came more into his own last season. But again, if the defense can't keep themselves off the field then I don't want to see the offense putting them out there too quickly.

I'd agree with seeing the team go to a "hurry-up" offense a few random times during the first three quarters but only after seeing if the defense can consistently force three-and-outs. If they can't build a reputation for that, then I'd rather the offense build up their time-of-possession stat.
yes....

Hurry up/no huddle-I think they have here and there, more under Jeff D IIRC. But Itsnotgonna brings up a good point.
....and yes

I don't think we will go to a hurry up. Given we run more than we pass and the hurry up would make us more one dimensional, it would not be a great thing most of the time. But with that being said it might be advantageous some of the time. Against teams that rotate players alot or teams which substitute players like we do on third down it could be an advantage. If we used Williams or Stewart more in passing downs as receivers it could be an advantage.

As for Jake, his passing perecentage goes up from 59% to 62% in the last 2 minutes of the half but his YPA goes down slightly. Don't think the improvement is enough to go to it often. Up until 2008 I would have agreed to do it more but with our improved rushing attack and success running in the red zone, I don't think it gives us a distinct advantage anymore.

We are a run first grind it out team which means it is somewhat unlikely that Davidson (Fox) would do it. All the more reason it might be a good idea to pull it out of our back pocket especially if the run is working and defense is getting winded.

This would be especially effective if Goodson meets message board hype and becomes a legitimate threat. I think the offense is a player or scheme away from being one of the most dangerous 3 or 4 in the league.

      Canales has worked with Wilson, Smith & Mayfield. He didn't move on from them did he? Reich & Canales have both benched Young. Young consumed a bulk of the Panthers' draft capital & free agency the past 2 seasons all for offense. What will it take for people to realize Young isn't a professional athlete, nevermind a leader of professional athletes?

      Brees and Payton template for Young

      Brees was the EXCEPTION. My God why can’t people see this. We didn’t outsmart anybody by drafting Bryce other than ourselves. In his prime Brees was NEVER A PROJECT. He was never just an ok QB before getting plugged in with Payton.  In his second season in SD he threw for 3,200 yards and 17 TDs. His last 2 years in SD he threw 51 TDs while being sacked 55 times. He was already a stud before going to the Saints.  he threw for at least 4,000 f-in yards EVERY SEASON from 2006 to 2018.  He threw for over 5,000 yards in 5 of those. I really thought all of the Bryce people had given up by now. He’s not Drew Brees. He’s not throwing for 80,000 yards and 571 TDs over a 19 year career, while leading one of the most prolific offenses of all time. He would be lucky to have met the guy who once carried DB’s jock.  Bryce is morale poison who throws hospital balls, 2 yard dump offs and pick 6s because he lacks the critical physical attributes to succeed in the NFL as well as the burning desire to BE A CHAMPION. He spent the offseason watching tv and playing video games. Every year wasted on him is a year wasted in developing other actual legitimate talent that exists on offense. Expect XL, the line, and pretty much the entire offense to regress if he starts next season. Canales gets it. It’s about making the Panthers win. Not Bryce.  Imagine being his teammate and hearing that after his pathetic ass rookie season, he went home to watch tv and play video games in the offseason. Imagine what Thielen really thought when he first heard. He should have hired a personal trainer and throwing coach the last day of the season. He needed to immerse himself deeper in to football, he chose to withdraw. he is not and will never be a champion. Dan is putting together some good offensive talent that will be completely wasted with Bryce under center. He’s injected high level talent and veteran leadership on the offensive line. There are skill players with big play ability, who are running free. I’m trying to pump the brakes but this offense is shaping up to be pretty fun to watch, and it only took one offseason’s worth of moves. I don’t think we are as far as people say we are.  So his big contract hit….   Want to know why divorce is so expensive… because it’s worth it.
