Shanahan or Cowher?

Cowher.

- He's historically known for solid special teams.

- 6 straight playoff appearances in the 90s, followed by back-to-back playoff appearances twice in the 00s (constancy is obviously not going to come from Fox)

- He LOVES the power running game (run in general)

- Players LOVE him, players would want to come to Carolina to play for him...as much as some don't agree, Bill Cowher is a legend.

He's very passionate about North Carolina (hell he was rooting for the 'Canes over the Pens in the Eastern Conference Finals)

Rivera, Ryan, Frazier, Grimm...

The only names I'm interested in.

:iagree:

i like cowher but is ego is bigger than Charlotte, and hell want more money and more power (coach/gm) than Richardson will want to give him

shanahan never did much after elway. not saying hes a bad coach but im not a big fan of his

I would say Cowher is the most logical choice, and it's almost blatant he wants to coach again and not too far from his house (Raleigh). I'm still not sold that he will be as effective as everyone speculates.

I really don't understand why so many people want Gruden. I like Gruden a lot, he's personality fits everything that's football. But what did he show in his last couple of seasons with the Buc's? He showed a lot of what we are seeing from Fox this year. No ability to inspire and unwilling to change.

Yeah I agree completely. Cowher and Shanahan are great coaches, but they are both going to want complete control which is probably not going to work.

Go with Grimm he comes from a good tree and likes the run.

    • NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
    • The bottom lines to me are that a) we played well enough to beat the best team in the league and b) Bryce Young is growing into a bridge QB role (his ceiling) for us. As much as I don't want BY around after the season, it seems DC can still build the O with a game manager at QB for now. Best case scanario, we can build the D through the draft this year and take a QB we have conviction outside the 1st this or next draft. If BY keeps improving, we are going to win a couple more games this year.
    • Bryce has been a completely different QB since coming back. That started in Denver where it was obviously he was playing a lot more loose and willing to push the ball downfield  Bryce continues to build off of the previous weeks performance and that’s what you want to see Bryce has been making some real good anticipation throws. Reading defenses well. Pushing the ball downfield (7 throws of 20+ air yards yesterday. 8 if you want to include PI to Thielen). The deep ball accuracy has been there. Some of Young’s best throws yesterday were incompletions. Sideline balls to XL and Moore both should’ve been caught. RZ dot to Tremble should’ve been caught. And another RZ ball to Moore that Young gave him a chance at. Bryce is starting to execute Canales offense and yesterday Canales finally opened it up a bit. Canales was to blame for the 126 passing yards in Germany as he played a more conservative game.  The next bit I’m looking for his for Young to be a bit more decisive with running the ball. Start putting that on film and it’ll help open things up a tad
