The Carolina Panthers have wasted very little time making their feelings known about their brand new offense for 2007. According to a report by the Charlotte Observer, the Panthers are extremely excited about their new offense, calling the old offense “predictable,” among other things. Apparently the Panthers are quite happy to be leaving ex-coordinator Dan Henning’s schemes behind them in favor of new offensive guru Jeff Davidson. Davidson, apparently, has found many ways to improve the Panthers offensive, beginning with varying the snap counts. You heard me. Last year, according to this report, the Panthers always snapped on “One.”
That’s all I’ll give away from the article. But seriously? That can’t be true. You’ve just got to be kidding me. I’ve never heard of a high school football team snapping on “One” every play. That’s the most insane thing I’ve ever heard. I went into this article thinking my angle was going to be that it was somewhat classless of the Panthers to throw their old coordinator under the bus like that, but honestly? If he had them snapping the ball on “One” every single down of every single game, then he deserves every bit of criticism they lob at him. The guy is basically fit to be the head coach of a powder puff team, if that story is true.
