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.

      Dave Tepper gives Canales and Dan Morgan vote of confidence

      By electro's horse · Posted

      Here comes Frankw and his pathetic little persecution complex to claim I have a personal vendetta against one of the worst performing coaches in the league if anything I should love Canales because he’s walking proof that through the lord all things AREN'T possible.  This kind of performance is exactly what you’d expect from someone who filled the building with misunderstood Bible quotes about iron forging iron and inspired speeches about how he apologized for his infidelity by buying his wife a book deal.  once more into the breech dear friends, just like when I paid a stripper for an above the pants hand job in Orlando.

      Has this game changed feelings about Young?

      As dumb as it probably sounds, we should have won that game.  Defense was bad but Bryce should have been better.  Pass rush isn't a good enough excuse.

      You and I both know there isn't a coach we could or can still hire that can "fix" Bryce Young. Even at mighty Alabama with one of the best modern coaches in college football history Mac Jones was still a better QB than Bryce Young. Mac Jones.... We already know how you feel about Canales on a personal level so in that regard you wanting him fired is not news. You don't have to disguise it behind this shroud of rabble about not fixing Bryce Young. To his credit he somehow had us competive against the Chiefs and the Eagles on the road with #9. But no coaching staff can overcome their starting QB turning the ball over 4 times. We definitely have developed some of our younger offensive pieces. And as far as Evero goes he has earned criticism and if he's fired so be it but in his defense many of us said in the offseason this defensive roster was a disaster waiting to happen given the resources we spent on the offense while neglecting the defense. That was Dan Morgan's plan. He swung too hard toward offense to salvage the Bryce Young trade. That's on him. We can scream about XL all we want but at least he's actually been on the field for the most part. The Brooks pick was a luxury pick at the time and now it is a Hurney level blunder. Dan Morgan has gotten a lot of early praise here when in reality he's unequivocally deserving of significant criticism. But if you say that some people get up in arms because he's a former Panther. Big whoop. He has just as much to prove this upcoming season as Canales. That's why to me in my own personal opinion I say one more season and then if it's more of the same say goodbye to both.
