Kentucky Panther

Can we hire Steichen before the season is over if the Eagles keep winning? I am not aware of the logistics of coordinators in the playoffs being available.

We could technically hire Steichen before the Super Bowl, correct? Or am I wrong on that? I do not want to let this guy get away if we wait too long.

Steichen looking nice. I’m blushing just a tad.

With Daniel Jones at QB and third string receivers starting. The evidence is there that he’s got potential as a play caller. Whether you choose to see it or not is your own issue.

I’m good either way with this outcome. Steichen and Kafka are my 1A and 1B at this point.

After this weekend, one of Kafka or Steichen will be done for the season, and can focus full time on these interviews. I keep checking this board and thread every day, fully knowing we will not be making a hire for at least another week or so lol

I’m trying to care about this but finding it difficult. Hopefully the sun comes up tomorrow.

I understand. I’m scarred by Fox and Rivera, I do not want any semblance of them coaching this team. And Wilks is that, unfortunately.

Would be a home run for me, either one. By far My top two right now. Wasn’t sold on Kafka earlier this week, but with news about more than a mid first next year being the price for Payton, I want little to do with that. Unless it comes down to him or Wilks.

So why isn’t he being pursued elsewhere? Possibly because he’s average at best? Conservative? Defense looked like poo after he took over? I could go on. Literally nobody wants Steve Wilks except for you and like 2 other guys on this board.

Pro Wilks crowd will not address this. He went .500 as the coach and lost every big game he coached in. But by god, I’m not sure we can do better. I have been and will continue to hope we get anyone but Steve Wilks.

He threw for 355 yards and two touchdowns. He had a pick or two as well, it he’s also not a starting franchise QB. I think Steichen would do wonders for a young QB, if we are lucky enough to get one.

I want to watch the Panthers win games and play exciting football. That eliminates Steve Wilks.

Pass. He is not being interviewed literally anywhere else for any position. Let alone coach. Seems like a good man, but he’s proven we can do better.

I just gotta say, especially because I know if you’re posting on an internet message board, you’re one of the bigger fans of the team, nobody here is going to stop watching Carolina play if we get Payton. Especially once we start winning. This team has sat through failure after failure, this will not be the straw that finally breaks the camel’s back. Regardless of what is posted today.

Wasn’t my first choice, but would be such a refreshing product on the field. I would be pretty excited going in to next season.

Probably not as bad as Sam in the grand scheme of things no, don’t want. He’s not elite anymore. He’s thrown some of the worst interceptions I’ve ever seen the past couple of seasons, especially this year. There is zero reason for us to sign him instead of looking for a younger guy. He can no longer carry a team to a title. And although our roster isn’t bad, it’s not going to be a title contender next season.

Although not my favorite, I could talk myself into Payton as our coach. At the very least, we would be more exciting to watch. Keep Brady out of Charlotte. He’s pretty cooked and honestly not sure he’s even an upgrade from Darnold at 46

Only way I want Reich is if it comes down to him or Wilks. Payton or Steichen or Kafka before either of those guys.

This is what I’m starting to think as well. For better or worse.

I would be fine with that hire. Again, I would take him over Wilks in a heartbeat.

I mean, if we aren’t getting Johnson or Steichen sign me up for Payton. I would take him 100/100 times over Wilks.

If it comes down to him, Payton, or Wilks, I will drive to Philly and help him move personally.

Fug the Panthers if we keep Wilks.

Dude went from favorite to not in contention in like 2 days. Sucks, I wanted him. Looks like it actually might be Payton. Hoping for Steichen now.
