The veteran coach has agreed in principle with the Panthers to become their new offensive coordinator, NFL Network's Tiffany Blackmon reported. Turner takes over for Mike Shula, who was fired by the team Tuesday.

Turner, who interviewed with the team Thursday, was considered a "top choice" to join Ron Rivera's staff in Carolina.

The 65-year-old returns to the coaching ranks for the first time since his stunning decision in November 2016 to step down as offensive coordinator of the then first-place Minnesota Vikings. Prior to walking away from the Vikings, Turner had served as an NFL head coach or coordinator for an uninterrupted run that started in 19

Sounds to me like Turner has yet to be convinced and may walk away from this.  Who could blame him ?

Who could blame him? What are the negatives of the job? Unemployed coordinators don’t often get the chance to coach a team that has been to the playoffs 4 out of the last 5 years, with an MVP QB, multiple All-Pro linemen, top 5 TE, and one hell of a weapon like CMC. Not to mention a defensive minded head coach that will stay out of your way. We certainly aren’t without faults, but with the right coaching, this offense is a legit WR away from being outstanding.

You must be under the impression that he needs this job.
