Mr. Scot

Saw this news item... ...and wondered. Suppose the Panthers did decide to look for a new OC next year. How would you feel about them hiring Josh McDaniels? There's not really what you'd call a connection between McDaniels and Reich...that is unless you count that Reich took over for McDaniels when he bailed on the Colts. He did keep some of McDaniels staff in place at that time, for what it's worth. As lousy a head coach as McDaniels may be, he's still considered an offensive genius who knows how to get good stuff out of his quarterbacks. Mind you, he's not really a West Coast guy, more of an E-P, but that's a system Reich played in and it's not terribly different from a WCO. The flipside? McDaniels is known to be a massive jerk. He's also a bit weird about some things. Most have probably heard the story about his wife and Jim Irsay, but there's another rumor that McDaniels had a player cut loose (forget who) because he was afraid his wife might be attracted to him Unknown whether there's any truth to that mind you, but on the matter of McDaniels being an a--hole and maybe a bit of a flake, there's plenty of evidence. The most recent being that he got pissed off at Antonio Pierce for mentioning the Giants win over the then undefeated Patriots in a pep talk to the team So what would your opinion be? Is the talent worth the, uuumm...eccentricity, or is this a big "hell no"?

Kinda funny (in a dark way) that this news item starts with the word breaking. "Breaking: Deshaun Watson's shoulder"

Daboll was on the Patriots staff for a little while too...

Man

Starting with...

I'm guessing you'll appreciate this...

Yikes

Former (temporary) Panther update...

If he can turn short passes into nice yardage, he's a good fit for what we do.

Fractured shoulder is very bad news for a quarterback...

We should also agree that our not getting a broken down sexual predator is one of the best things to happen to us.

Video discussion... Burns for Pitts would be highly unlikely, but that'd certainly generate a lot of discussion.

Seriously doubt it was Houston. More than likely someone's agent...

It's okay though. Hell still get paid 🫥

Isn't Duce Staley supposed to be our "hardass" guy though?

One person pointed out that O'Brien was supposed to fix Mac Jones as well. He is, however, experienced as a pro OC.

Missed that I do remember him being good though. I've seen some Jet fans asking why he was let go.

Related: Is this the guy from UNC?

Tepper shouldn't be involved in those decisions, but...

Probably because he had more experience than the others. Yeah, I know

Or we could just change the scheme...

He wasn't the only one reporting this. Back during pre-draft days, pretty much everyone believed the Texans had Young as their top prospect.
