And everyone was so happy to get rid of Richardson.

Isn't that sad. Not since our inception. Crazy to think we've never had a Coach/GM team come in together.

When was the last time we had a new GM and a new Coach going into a season. As much as I can remember we haven't had a new GM / Coach come in at the same time.

It really depends on who the new head coach is going to be. I think this offensive scheme does not fit our O-line at all. Get Young to get used to being under center instead of pistol or shotgun and run the ball. From what I read our best performance in the run game was he was under center. If we have a different scheme it may put our O-line back to the 2022 season. We could than focus on a well disciplined WR.

Why is she even having a meltdown? It's not like she has any clue on how to build a team. Maybe one of the players rejected her advances. LOL

He needs to focus on his soccer team and let someone buy the Panthers.

And to think I was all on board for Horn over Parsons. I pray we don't pick up his option just to sit on the bench for 75% or more of the season.

As long as Tepper keeps Veto control over any player no coach is going to want to come here. The HC and GM have to be in total control of the roster. If Tepper is involved, they'll stay away.

Please feel free to add more.

I think Young can still be the QB we want him to be and am not implying that we draft a QB in 2024. HOWEVER, the other day I saw a list of QBs for the 2024 draft. Surprisingly, there were a lot of interesting prospects. We know the Williams, Maye, Penix and Nix will be long gone by pick 33. Would you consider taking one of these other QBs with the 1st pick in the 2nd round? Or would you just to prefer to ride Young until the 2025 draft class. 2024 is probably a wash for us anyhow. We'll most likely have a top 5 pick in 2025 which could be used for just about any other position besides QB that we are in need of. Quarterback Rankings 2024 NFL Draft (nfldraftbuzz.com) It's a topic for discussion not necessarily my opinion. One that intrigues me is Deion's boy. Given time he can really make some plays. Sadly, his offensive line is worse than ours.

How about we throw the ball a little further down the field. It's pretty hard to beat anyone when their entire defense is within 10 yards of the scrimmage line. Complete or not. At least the defense has to respect the possibility of a deep pass.

I don't want anyone from the current offensive staff. Evero is playing with a lot of 2nd string players and the defense is hanging in there. Ben Johnson (+500) Jim Harbaugh (+700) Ejiro Evero (+700) Bill Belichick (12/1) Johnson is possibly the best pick of the group. Harbaugh could bring a toughness back to the Carolinas. It would be interesting to see what Belicheat could do with Young. The only issue I have with Evero is that he may have the same culture which is something that needs to change.

Four things IMO must happen. 1. It is going to have to be a big fat paycheck. 2. He'll have to have his own GM. 3. A clause that prevents firing for a minimum of two years possibly three years. 4. Owner has no Veto power over any picks or Free Agents

I haven't seen anyone say he coached a team. I know he comes from a family where his father is a highly respected coach. If you have ever listened to Olsen you'll know he is very intelligent and understands detail. His obvious success would be hitched to his coordinators but as a head coach I have no doubt that he would win the locker room and be successful.

It's not going to happen. PERIOD What needs to happen is MR. Hegde Fund needs to get out of football operations and let the professionals handle it.

Greg is a very intelligent guy. His dad is a coach so he has some basics about the job. He's a former player that can and will get respect from the players. If I were Greg, my deciding factor would be that Tepper stays in the Owner's booth and him and the GM (whoever it may be) have complete control over the roster. I could see him really doing well.

As it should be. How many owners that have their hands in football operations are any good. The Cowgirls made out when they traded H. Walker. They got a bunch of nice picks, and they turned them into a small dynasty but after that the Cowboys have barely a playoff Win. And Jones has a ton to do with it.

Agreed. He needs to let the professionals evaluate and select these players. He can sit in the War Room and keep his big mouth shut. Ask questions later. As long as he's meddling, we are going to continue to suck. Looks like we inherited Detroit/Jacksonville's curse.

While I believe that we need to continue to evaluate the QB position our entire offensive scheme is just terrible. From play calling, to blocking schemes, to WRs that can't get separation and if they do they drop it. Young should take the blame for some of it, but Reich's offense is absolutely terrible. It's hard to tell whether Young would thrive in a real offense or he is just insanely overrated. It would suck if we traded him, and he did well under a good creative offensive mind. I would also add the locker room is gone. It almost feels like no one is fighting for each other. Though we were pretty bad last year at least Wilks had the locker room and the players were giving 100% and actually won a couple of game. I just don't see that type of effort with this team.

We have speed in Chark, We have catch radius in Mingo and TMJ, WE have all the traits a QB could desire on this team but most are missing one quality. Running Routes. Give me a fast WR with great hands and knows how to run and route and get open. I would be 100% on the bus with him before we grab a track star that knows Three routes, Post, Flag and Fly. If you can't run a route without rounding it out or drifting than what good will he be in the NFL if he can fly. We've had our run of those WRs.

When Fitterer was hired the majority of the posters here agreed with the hire. Thought he was the next good GM. Pick after Pick and Free Agent after Free Agent just hasn't panned out too much. Then when we do land one like Riddick instead of doing everything possible to keep him, we let him go. I think it is time to make a change at GM. This coaching staff has years of experience but that's about it. They don't mesh well and the schemes we run don't fit our players. I somewhat agree with the OP but one thing that bothers me is how our offensive line could be a bright spot when we left the 2022-23 season and this season they are just terrible. Coaches need to get back to basics. The majority of our good runs last week were because we didn't run that zone blocking and got back smash mouth football. Which is what our players are more comfortable with. I think Young can be a good QB but we have to build a line that is suited to running the ball and then let Young do his thing. I'd love for us to find a Running Back like Pacheco. Runs hard and is a MF to bring down. Hubbard isn't bad but he's not on that level of Pacheco. You get a RB like him that helps everything. I think many times we overlook route running skills in a WR. Maybe it's because we can teach it. But, maybe it isn't that easy and some players have a hard time grasping it. You would think that on paper our WR Corp would be solid but outside of our only decent free agent pick up they all just are JAG.

Well someone is working out or at least trending to a decent pick. That said, you can't post positive stuff like this. You have to go to the positive thread link and post there.

He has had his moments so I wouldn't put him in the top 10 just yet. So many of you want to put the blame on Young but he has little to no help. The players he has round him are terrible outside of Theilan.

This all depends on who is truly calling the shots. If Tepper is calling the shots it doesn't matter who is the GM it's going to be ugly. If Tepper is hands off. SURE, but I am looking at the former and not the latter.

I was all for keeping him as long as he got a good offensive coordinator.
