No i have one year left on contract. I’m finished …trying to move this last year i have great seats in the shade and a lot 1 parking pass I hate giving them up but it’s over for me

Or maybe Samir did.

He had said in previous interviews that he wanted to be a GM So, maybe when Dan got it over him, he said ‘I’m out of here’ I don’t see how he was that good with contract manipulation but that’s me

I read it as well…I saw it in twitter bit I thought it was on pantherswire or some such

Scott fowler on Dan Morgan Dan Morgan, the new guy in charge of the Carolina Panthers’ personnel, just performed his first near-miraculous maneuver. He’s going to need to perform a second one to make this team good again. Hiring Morgan really could work. He’s smart, he’s deeply invested, he knows the Panthers and the Charlotte market inside and out and he’s respected around the league after previous stints in Seattle and Buffalo. But I didn’t think Panthers owner David Tepper would actually do this, because Morgan was so closely associated with previous general manager Scott Fitterer. He was Fitterer’s right hand man for the past three seasons, and in those three ugly seasons Carolina went 5-12, 7-10 and 2-15. It was that final year, when the Panthers posted an NFL-worst record, that did Fitterer in as GM. Although Fitterer was the boss, Morgan was deeply involved in a number of questionable Panther personnel decisions: Trading Christian McCaffrey, picking Bryce Young over C.J. Stroud and declining the L.A. Rams’ offer of two first-round picks and a third-round pick for Brian Burns, to name just three. Tepper could have picked from a number of other candidates who didn’t have the stain of those past three seasons, and he interviewed a bunch of them. And then he chose Morgan, whose official title will be President of Football Operations/General Manager. Somehow, Morgan convinced him this was the right path. “Dan has a thorough knowledge of our football personnel and a clear vision to take us where we all want to go,” Tepper said in a statement released by the team Monday night. “We know he will attack this opportunity with the same intensity he did as a Panthers player.” No doubt that’s true, but Morgan also is going to have to prove he’s different than Fitterer. In the next few months, he’s going to have to sign a far better free-agent class in 2024 than Carolina acquired in 2023, figure out what to do with edge rusher Burns’ contract and draft a stud with the No. 33 overall pick (the No. 1 pick, which would have been Carolina’s, got shipped to Chicago in the Fitterer regime). If he fails, people will say, “Tepper should have known better. This was just more of the same.” But Morgan somehow convinced Tepper that he can bring something different, something new to the Panthers. It’s not the first time the organization has bet big on Morgan. With head coach George Seifert in charge, the Panthers drafted Morgan in the first round of the 2001 NFL draft (Steve Smith was the team’s third-round pick that same year). All Morgan cared about was football then. He was as single-minded as anyone who ever walked into the Panther locker room as a rookie, and I’ve seen every one of them. Football is me,” he said then. When Morgan was healthy, he was Luke Kuechly before Luke Kuechly ever got to Charlotte. People forget that, but he was. Morgan made an unbelievable 25 tackles in the Super Bowl loss to New England. Morgan also is one of the franchise’s last remaining direct connections to Sam Mills, the team’s first great inside linebacker and the Hall of Fame member who invented the “Keep Pounding” chant. Morgan played under Mills, who took the youngster under his wing and took him bowling as he got him used to what Charlotte was like.

Little dramatic aren’t you .. Reminders. Rae Carruth, Fred Lane, Gregg Hardy, Kerry Collins and so many more

Yep. I thought so from the beginning lot of common threads I’m fine with their hiring Canales. They could do far far worse (and have) Listen to some of his off the cuff interviews on YouTube he is a far cry from past stupidity here and has a really good coaching pedigree

Good to see you back again…if just for a little while

My thought was if it was Morgan, it would be Canales Losing Evero….not good canales would be a good fit for Young. Several of his interviews in which he is just talking about his offensive philosophy made a lot of sense.….godknows, he got something consistent out of Baker then again, the Panthers don’t have Evansor Godwin….so, there is that

Like Canales. He got a lot out of Baker Mayfield. No easy feat Heard an interview on his offensive philosophy…like him a lot he also has the experience and pedigree

Canales Would not be a bad choice for OC. The more I read. The more I hear him talk about his philosophy, the more I like him

Is is…entirely possible…that Johnson is happy where he is doing what he does in Detroit I know that’s shocking

Some things about evero. Short version To give you the cliff notes, Evero has coached under Jon Gruden, Jim Harbaugh, Sean McVay, and Wade Phillips during his time as an assistant, all of whom are some of the best coaching minds we’ve seen at times in recent history. One of the biggest things we often examine when looking at head coaching candidates is the coaching tree they’ve come from to get here, and that’s a heck of a list. Now, Evero is clearly a defensive minded head coach, which is not what the Panthers have necessarily been adamant about going after ever since Matt Rhule’s tenure. Still, Evero becoming the head coach if they can’t land a top flight offensive head coach wouldn’t be the worst thing in the world. He’s got a lot of promise and has established a much better than expected defense in both of his stints as a coordinator on that side of the ball. He would also be afforded the option to then go get whatever offensive coordinator he chooses, and I would imagine he’d let whomever that person is do their work and keep to his side of the football (aside from the general gameplan and down and distance decisions of course). The other benefit would be the team wouldn’t be experiencing a full on change that has happened twice in the prior two seasons, as Matt Rhule had to make some wholesale changes before being ousted, and Frank Reich’s short-lived regime blew up the coaching staff almost completely. This could give some stability for the Panthers young team and keep Bryce Young at least adjacent to a head coach that spent his entire rookie season right alongside him.

Read it wrong apologies

…so…what is it about……

Nfl is about connections and exposure why not interview and listen Nothing to lise and intelligence to gain about another org

Kinda liking this guy more from Cat Scratch Reader Dave Canales: A track record of success the Panthers need The Carolina Panthers could look within the division The Carolina Panthers are set to interview Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive coordinator Dave Canales for their head coaching vacancy today. Canales hasn’t quite gotten the same buzz as some of the other candidates, but that doesn’t mean he’s not a very strong option for David Tepper and company. Canales hasn’t taken a typical path to potential NFL head coach. He started his coaching career at age 23 as the offensive coordinator for his high school alma mater. He spent a couple of years there before becoming the tight ends coach and special teams coach at El Camino College, a community college in southern California. There he developed a relationship with then-USC head coach Pete Carroll, who eventually brought Canales on board as an assistant strength coach. He made the jump to the NFL when Carroll brought him along when he took the head coaching job for the Seattle Seahawks. Canales started as the team’s wide receivers coach, a position in which he served for several years. In 2018, he became the team’s quarterbacks coach. He held that position until he got the opportunity to join the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as offensive coordinator at the start of this past season. Canales has left a trail of success wherever he’s served as either quarterbacks coach or offensive coordinator. He oversaw the resurrection of Geno Smith, whose production and that of the entire Seahawks offense dropped off significantly after Canales’ departure. Baker Mayfield saw the same success when he was paired up with the Bucs’ new offensive coordinator. He had one of if not the best seasons in his career, and he’s starting a playoff game this weekend. No one expected that. There’s a substantial history of quarterbacks playing their best while working with Canales, and that has now spanned across multiple quarterbacks on two different teams. That’s about as much of an endorsement as a coach can get. This doesn’t matter as much, but he’s got a demeanor that should quickly endear him to fans should he end up with the job. He’s charismatic and energetic at the podium and is arguably the most handsome candidate, which is obviously very important. He seems mostly well liked by Buccaneers fans, and that says a lot in its own right—fans almost never like their team’s coaches and coordinators. It’s no secret that Panthers owner David Tepper wants a young, offensive minded head coach to guide his team into the future. While Dave Canales might not be the first candidate that comes to mind, there is a lot to like about his resume and potential fit with the Panthers. QBs under Dave Canales as QB coach, pass game coordinator or OC 2018: Wilson, 3448 yds, 35 TD, 7 INT 2019: RW, 4110 yds, 31 TD, 5 INT 2020: RW, 4212 yds, 40 TD, 13 INT 2021: RW/Geno, 3815 yds, 30 TD, 7 INT 2022: Geno, 4282 yds, 30 TD, 11 INT 2023: Baker, 4044 yds, 28 TD, 10 INT

K. Donnelly. No to Dan Morgan

Is he, didn’t know that as the bengals games I saw this year, Callahan had the call sheet and sending in plays who knows let’s face it, not many want to work for Tepper, with a zero sum game of talent, no first rd pick and Young at qb It’s a pipe drum to expect much more on the other hand, all the names where ‘no names’ at one time
