Head Coach Preference - Round 2 (January 19, 2024)
Martin replied to Evil Hurney's topic in Carolina Panthers
I think Slowik is realistic. But we’ll see. -
Sure, there are no guarantees that anyone will turn in to a great HC. But taking a chance on someone excelling as a OC is a darn good place to start. He won’t turn Bryce in to Stroud, I don’t think anyone expects that. But I’d rather look at what he does in his offense in terms of protecting the QB, adjustments for different opponents etc. And that has been very impressive. I think one of the main reasons we are holding on to Evero is so that a younger offensive HC can focus on the offense initially and let the defense and special teams be managed on their own, a very prudent approach for a younger coach.

Thank you
-
My top 3 would be Canales, Johnson and Slovik. Leaning towards Slovik as the favorite, but would be happy with any of them.
-
The way he sets up protection and scheme around pressure is very impressive
-
The interesting thing with Slowik is that his current team did a lot of analysis on the QBs in last years draft. So he should be very familiar with Bryce. Not saying he likes or dislikes Bryce, but he knows more about him that most other coaches.
-
I have a feeling Harbaugh will go back to Michigan, but maybe this is the year?
-
Belichick is still a fantastic defensive coach, but Atlanta needs help on offense. So I’m not super concerned about it. I would be more concerned if they hired Harbaugh.

If You Could Choose ANY Head Coach... Who?
Martin replied to Jay Roosevelt's topic in Carolina Panthers
LaFleur has done an impressive job post Rodgers in Green Bay -
Does it feel like if we had a veteran and he could sit for a year or two he would be a great pick, but drafting him to compete with Bryce is a stretch? I really want the best G/C at 33.
-
Hopefully they’re allowing Campen to interview elsewhere as well
-
If he brings his dad to coach the o-line and Jake Browning to compete with Bryce, I’d be all in tbh.
-
Or, you can hope he does some good hires this time and our division rivals mess it up. Now that would be much better. And let me know if I need to repeat that slower…
-
Yup. Hoping we will fail for years just to be able to rub it in Tepper’s face is super weird.
-
McCarthy is interesting. When I’ve seen him play I’ve never been that impressed. But instead of his surroundings helping him, maybe it has held him back? Maybe he could have done a lot more if asked to? Or maybe I’m just completely overthinking this?
-
That what I thought as well, thanks for jumping in
-
I thought they had an upgraded weight room etc. But my point is that he would promise to give them what they need. For Reich, as an example, there was no cap on spending on coaches.
-
I’m curious about him essentially storming out from/taking his ball and going home from his last two jobs. Is he a difficult guy to work with?
-
Except the Chargers
-
The best thing Tepper can do is to tell any HC candidate that money is not an issue, he will supply any resources they might need for success, such as facilities, equipment, staff etc. I think those things resonate well.
-
Yeah the culture is huge red flag, no doubt, so I would stay away. A shame as they draft and acquire players so well.
-
The Eagles have built a very talented roster, but currently have really bad coaching after both coordinators left last year. Your “… Using that logic you could argue for Brian Johnson…” argument is really poor. I’m personally not a fan of the org as a whole, but wow you are way off with that logic.
-
I might be interested in him if he brings his dad along to coach the o-line and mentor him. Bill is a very good o-line coach.
