I didn’t like Holcomb as DC. the more I saw, the less I liked I like coach Wilks. But were Holcomb is concerned, he needs to take his own advice from the ‘buddy vs friend’ perspective granted there were few coaches left on staff post Rhule, but it was pretty clear Al would have been his DC going forward. Truthfully, and I remember when Wilks finally became DC for Rivera…it wasn’t that great. But it is time for an offensive coach as the Tampa game clearly showed…and a real qb and qb room, a true complimentary speed WR for DJ and last but not least, a TE without hands of stone

Yep reich also seems pretty damned good at spotting good, young coordinators this hire by Tepper is about stabilization of the franchise now and setting up for Reich’s successor the posters complaining seem to forget how the Eagles HC and OC feel about him it’s called “tactical to strategic’ planning Tepper should have done this the first time. He learned as far as Wilks, great man put in a bad circumstance but those short 4th downs that he refused to go for, with 3rd string cbs that he knew, or should surely have known, Brady would dice up, with everything to gain and nothing to lose, he punted. That was it for me. Shades of John fox No desire to see that movie again.

In 15 years, Tepper could be dead and his wife assume. She seems to actually like the city, the fans and the team …or we could be dead also and it won’t matter in any case Live for the day At least there is a team here to love, hate or bitch about

Full link in reportReport: Panthers' interview with Eagles OC Shane Steichen 'didn't go as hoped' share tweet email Anthony Rizzuti follow January 25, 2023 2:15 pm ET Well, we might have to scratch Shane Steichen off the list for the Carolina Panthers. On Wednesday, we learned of the team’s initial intentions for their second round of head coaching interviews. As of now, 2022’s interim head coach Steve Wilks, former Indianapolis Colts head coach Frank Reich and Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore have all been given another look. Buy Panthers Tickets But notably absent from that bunch is Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Shane Steichen, who has been viewed as one of the favorites for the job. Maybe this is why . . .

Frank’s a good human being. I’m old. I attended Maryland when he and Boomer were there back in the day andrew luck’s decision hamstrung that franchise for years and the owner is a nut job so there is that I don’t know what to think anymore about the Panthers Reich’s daughter now works there so, there’s that but like you, Steichen (only if Fangio is part of that). Reich. Wilks people talk about the 49ers offense, and this and that, but that 49ers defense is the real deal and it will be that defense performing to heroic levels if they beat the Eagles

People on here believe the Philly OC will come here …you know …because the Panthers are the only team looking for a coach and the posters want him too nobody on here is Nostradamus billionaires do what they do i despise Payton but frankly, he and Tepper deserve each other

It was common sense then it’s common sense now i be spend a good part of time in CA whether I want to or not I saw and heard about the Rams far more than I want to we didn’t owe CMC some royal send off of his choosing. every single decision should be about the good of the franchise In the case of the Panthers, it seldom is There have been several seminal moments with Fitterer. This was another one

To be honest, what CMC wanted should have been secondary The team paid him $64 million dollars. That’s enough compensation for a RB So stupid is as stupid does, twice over as for the Rams, it was pretty clear they were not last years Rams he wanted the west coast, he would have had it in LA as well it’s not like they were sending him to Houston or the jets

Why the GM chose to not trade Mccaffrey to the rams is beyond me rams were trending downward so those picks are now more a 3rd a 4th and a 5th Give me a high 2 and 3 who cares about a 4th

I have a feeling ole Jerry down Dallas way might put a call in for Payton in fact, they kinda deserve each other

Didn’t Watson tell you enough …. Seriously.

Good ole Sean said his pal only wanted a mid rd to late rd first looks like the opening ante for poker hand is a bit different there is not one coach alive worth 2 first rd picks if that pick is in the top 10 particularly to a division rival

Payton is a lot older now. He is not into this for the long haul he was with the Saints as long as Bree’s would suck it up and play He has never had to groom a young qb with the saints Hill isn’t a true QB It makes no difference as Tepper is going to do whatever Tepper wants to His franchise frankly, I’m not big on Payton and Bountygate considering as well that Newton was one of the players they wanted to put on a stretcher and his little Vicodin episode with the trainer to this day, I’m not sure why he wasn’t banned for life and why the NFLPA didn’t insist on it

He is given credit for it. I’m not worried and I pay for it. I suspect the article can be found free elsewhere

Just sharing as I have access and some don’t not earth shattering. New Panthers head coach to-do list: What Matt Rhule’s replacement needs to do in Year 1 BY ELLIS WILLIAMS [email protected] 6 hours ago Head coaches are not selected. They are elected. Politicians and NFL head-coaching candidates have plenty in common this time of year. The NFL head-coaching counsel is an annual cycle where information is being exchanged by the second in a nonstop effort by candidates to capitalize on their narratives by convincing NFL owners and decision-makers they are best for the job. Everyone is selling hope. Slogans aside, potential head coaches present teams an all-encompassing plan that clearly states their plan of attack if elected head coach. Owner David Tepper and the Panthers wasted no time starting their search for Matt Rhule’s replacement. Carolina has already requested interviews with more than 10 candidates. The team interviewed Steve Wilks, Jim Caldwell and Frank Reich and will interview several more candidates this week. Whether a candidate is an offensive mind or a defensive strategist, every coach interviewing in Carolina should satisfy these four categories with a detailed plan. Find a QB Tepper and general manager Scott Fitterer are leading the team’s head-coaching search. Both will play similar roles in accurately finding a franchise quarterback regardless of who the next head coach is. The Panthers’ next head coach must have a vision for developing the quarterbacks. Candidates should study how first-year head coaches Brian Daboll (New York Giants) and Kevin O’Connell (Minnesota Vikings) approached the quarterbacks they inherited. The Giants’ Daniel Jones and the Vikings’ Kirk Cousins are flourishing on their respective teams in very different ways. Jones is winning with his feet while making the throws Daboll and offensive coordinator Mike Kafka — who the Panthers requested to interview — scheme open. Cousins is throwing more passes per game than he ever has, which has led to eight fourth-quarter comebacks and an NFL-record 11 one-score wins. The next head coach must have individual plans crafted for Matt Corral, an imaginary first-round rookie and a theoretical veteran (maybe Sam Darnold) tailored specifically to each thrower. The ideal Panthers quarterback room would feature three quarterbacks at different career junctions. Yet, all three must be ready to play, and the offense should not change much if they do. Backup quarterback has never been more important in the NFL. Sixty-six different quarterbacks started an NFL game this season, the most since 2007. The Panthers have started three different quarterbacks each of the past two seasons. Having a plan for Corral and a veteran thrower should be as important as developing a rookie. Former Giants head coach Joe Judge was fired last offseason primarily because he did not improve Jones. In one season with Daboll, Jones had a career year and should earn starting quarterback money this offseason from the Giants or elsewhere. Could Kafka, Ben Johnson (Detroit Lions), Kellen Moore (Dallas Cowboys), Ken Dorsey (Buffalo Bills) or Shane Steichen (Philadelphia Eagles) be this hiring cycles’ Daboll or O’Connell? It’s possible. Or could a retread like Reich or Caldwell recreate what Doug Pederson did in Jacksonville? That’s for Tepper and the Panthers to find out by hiring a candidate with a foolproof quarterback plan. Find an experienced coordinator on the opposite of the ball Coaching styles vary but every successful NFL leader must possess expertise in five key areas. The coach must be adept at preparation, strategy, tactics, execution and situational intuition. Preparation covers everything from having efficient daily schedules, especially during OTAs, minicamp, training camp and the regular season, to being ready on game days. Strategy incorporates plotting specific game plans and formulating developmental plans for every Panthers player. It takes sound tactics to maximize strategies. Situational intuition is the oil that makes everything function smoothly. The Panthers’ future coach should seek these five skills in his coordinators, too. Six years ago when the Rams made Sean McVay the youngest head coach in league history at age 31, they paired him with defensive coordinator Wade Phillips (69 years old), who had decades of head-coaching experience. Other examples include defensive coordinator Dan Quinn, who coaches one of the best defenses in football with the Cowboys. He reached Super Bowl 51 as the Falcons’ head coach. More recently, the Browns fired defensive coordinator Joe Woods after three seasons. The team is reportedly interested in Jim Schwartz and Brian Flores to fill the vacancy. Both are previous head coaches. The young offensive coordinators the Panthers are interviewing would be wise to present a plan for Carolina’s up-and-coming defense, tied to a veteran defensive coordinator. If Carolina hires a defensive head coach (Wilks or DeMeco Ryans) both must deliver a stellar plan for the offense that includes visionary talent at both offensive coordinator and quarterback coach. Get on board with Scott Fitterer’s roster-building plan The Panthers hired GM Fitterer following former Rhule’s inaugural season. With Rhule gone, Fitterer is likely the second most powerful person in the organization entering just his second full season overseeing the Panthers’ front office. He has earned it. Jaycee Horn, Brady Christensen, Chuba Hubbard, Terrace Marshall, Tommy Tremble, Keith Taylor and Shi Smith are all from the 2021 rookie class and all contributed this season. Horn is already one of the best cornerbacks in the league. Christensen did not miss a start this season. Hubbard could be a bell-cow back if necessary. Marshall flashed at times while Tremble, Taylor and Smith all could improve but belong in the NFL Ikem Ekwonu highlights the team’s 2022 class and is already one of the most talented left tackles in the league. Whomever the Panthers hire will have to be on board with Fitterer’s roster-building vision. The team has important internal talent it’s already negotiating with. Retaining center Bradly Bozeman and running back D’Onta Foreman is one of the Panthers’ top priorities regardless of who coaches next season. It would be advantageous for the next coach to lean on Fitterer’s existing relationships with Panthers players. He’s an organic bridge from Tepper’s initial vision to his redemption hire. Find immediate alignment with Tepper and Fitterer Last season when the Vikings were searching for their coach following eight seasons of Mike Zimmer, Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh interviewed but did not land the job. There are conflicting reports as to why, but clearly Harbaugh and Vikings ownership did not 100% align. The Observer confirmed Harbaugh and Tepper had a conversation about the Panthers’ head-coaching vacancy. Since then, Harbaugh released a statement via the University of Michigan’s Twitter that he anticipates returning to Ann Arbor. The Panthers have not yet conducted a formal interview with Harbaugh. That could change. If it doesn’t then Tepper was not interested in handing over full control of the organization to another college coach like he did with Rhule. The best organizations find and then successfully maintain alignment between ownership, the front office and the head coach. The next Panthers head coach must align with Tepper’s vision and Fitterer’s plan while serving as a CEO capable of authentic leadership and winning football education and strategy.

Payton was on the Herd Interesting interview if you are into body language and cues he confirmed he is meeting with ‘Mr Tepper’ this Friday all the other openings, he didn’t address with the ‘Mr’ title he also said the mid or first rd pick could probably be for ‘next year’ knowing Loomis He Super Bowl was some time ago and the saints failed repeatedly in the playoffs as Brees aged he has zero moral compass sounds like David Tepper’s kinda guy

It did me in a cave with nothing tolose, everything to gain, ams knowing your secondary was depleted, the offensive line is supposedly the strength of this team in That game, they failed

Agree fuger should not even be in the nfl Paying bounties to hunt other players is a bridge too far for me so is Watson but not everyone feels that way and they are entitled

Here is a link from Walter football updated on jan 10 I shared one last month that was better but this at least gives the nss as med of those outside of the top 4 if the 49ers can make a starting qb out if the last draft pick, the new hire of the panthers should be able to do something with a first or second rd pick update this also shows 2023 projected draft as well some eeem to be left out like Penix but at least it gets names out there Top 10 qbs in 2023 honestly, I like that kid from Houston and the guy from Stanford at any rate, the new offense and it’s system will determine what the panthers do, we all know that. How good are the Panthers scouts, who knows
