Yes please keep up.
He's had one good season! One and that's because superman himself is playing quarterback he's a product of a talent the NFL has never seen. This would be horrible (we don't have Cam)

Kap at his best is the next best thing. Well at kaps he was almost on par with Newton now.
This coach is a fluke just like the Panthers season

If you don't think he's tremendously helped Cam then you're just flat up uninformed. I've watched every Panther game since Cam was drafted. The gains he's made since Chud left and Shula stepped up is tremendous. He was roasted even early this season for being overrated, let alone a bust a short time ago. The difference he's made in such a short amount of time is astonishing.

Cam is doing so many little things correct right now (presnap/postsnap) to add to his already unique skill set (big arm, big body, elusiveness, hunger, drive, winner all his life) that it's hard for me to think of anyone I'd rather have right now as the QB of my team.

There's no way this all happens without Shula. Now whether dude can actually command a squad of 52, coaches and our weird FO is a total other thing.
Anybody that is a doubter, i highly recommend you devote some of your time this weekend to watching shula call game plays. I don't recall him being anywhere near this good in times past, but he has become an ACE at calling games. Not to mention how he has gotten Cam out his "lots of potential but still far from where he needs to be" (sound familiar) to helping Cam become a bona fide MVP, hands down. Of course it is easy to like a guy who is fun, funny, got the build, got the smarts, is an extrovert, and terrific coordination. But he was always before "sorta" in all those descriptors before this yr. Somehow, shula got him to somehow "be all you can be" and Cam put it in overdrive. But no question, somebody helped him along, and that was shula.

Forget about Cam for 15 minutes and watch the game calls of Shula. The boy has it in his genes, because his dad, no slouch in play calling, certainly moved some of that talent on to his son. Just watch shula for 15 mins call plays and i bet you come away saying, wow, that guy is good. I admit it is hard to shut out Cam from your conscious, but if you do you will see exactly what we need as a HC/OC. He is one guy I would want in both positions. He is as good as anybody in their prime adn that is a heck of a statement. Don't believe it, just watch yourself and you will see why he should be our next HC.

Hue is fine, but he sure hurt himself in the weekend game. He'll get his HC slot. I just hope it is a good one, But if you want something special..; Shula.
McDaniel deserves another look also, coaching a wounded team all season. Hue would be my 3rd choice, but actually i'd be happy with any of the three, but Shula if you want the coach who you can look across the field at Arians or Carroll, and know our guy is going to beat them.

Yup he knows how to flow from start to finish like a river and he never pulls the horses back even if they're up by 30.

The only reason I pull for McDaniels more than Shula is the experience but if we keep Kap then I'd rather have Shula as HC.

I think if they can get him now, they'd get him for cheap and there won't be much competition.
love these candidates, we might just have a real offense next year!

I don't know about that, man. Back to back playoff appearances doesn't say "fluke" to me. I like the Panthers and watch a lot of their games. I like what he's done for that offense despite missing a lot of pieces.

Ted Ginn Jr. is a stud WR there...just like he was here. Oh...wait.

Weird how a player, like a Wide Receiver looks sooo much different when all they're allowed to do is NOT just play special teams. Weird.....

Jim Harbaugh sucks at using offensive talent. Ironically, he is like the Alex Smith of coaches. He just makes sure his team minimizes the mistakes.
