Yeah, but coming form the 49ers he was going to bring the WCO to Carolina and open up our offense which, to that point, had been horrible.  

He originally brought Bill Musgrave as his OC and then for some weird reason Musgrave quit and the job went to Gil Haskell instead.

If I recall correctly though, Haskell only lasted a year before taking a job with Mike Holmgren in Seattle.

It was more than that, everybody hated Seifert for his attitude and his approach. He chose to cut Beuerlein for Weinke. That offensive coach you speak of got us to 31st in offense and probably like 60th in defense, it was so bad. Offensive coaches can be great but when defense wins championships, airing it out in 50-47 losses doesn’t do much for me. 

A loss is a loss, but at least 50-47 is a much more entertaining game than say 28-3. If you can't consistently put up 21 points a game, you have litlle shot of winning unless you have a top 5 defense and we haven't had one of those as of late. I'm over 3-yards and cloud of dust; let the defense  win the game coaching mentality.

Look, I'm not trying to say anything wonderful about Seifert, just pointing out he was to the closest thing to an offensive focused head coach in team history.  You are correct, he was a DC for the 49ers before becoming the HC, but to my point he was brought in to fix our inept offense.  

So to your point based on Seifert's historical background as a coordinator, we've never had a pure offensive mind as a HC in team history.  Twenty-five years of leaning on the defense has not gotten more than mediocrity.

Didn't say you were. Just remembering how it happened. It was all kind of strange back then and word filtered out afterward that Seifert was a colossal a--hole.

Tepper is said to want an offensive coach.

Ah yes, Jeff Lewis was Seifert's prospective boy-wonder and that blew up in his face which lead to us drafting Weinke.  We've had so many colossal failures, it's hard to keep up with them all.  Sad....

Edit:  But wasn't it Musgrave that brought Lewis in with him and was touting him as the best thing since sliced bread and then (as Mr. Scot said) Musgrave suddenly quit? It almost seems like a set up job in hind sight!   I guess Seifert did have a lot of enemies...

      As fans have we unanimously concluded that Bryce Young IS THE PROBLEM

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      If my reply comes off argumentative, that is not my intention so please don’t take it as such.  You said one word, probably subconsciously, in your post that immediately disqualifies him from being a QB in the NFL. You actually said it twice. Kid. It’s exactly how you see him, and exactly how the rest of the entire NFL sees him as well.  Yes, he is a kid, he looks and acts like a kid and that exactly IS the problem. The NFL is for grown ass men. Period. Hell, our kicker looks like he collects ‘taxes’ as a side hustle. These are straight dudes. Men.  Nothing in his persona changed from last year to this.  Nothing in his physical stature. Nothing. He has shown 0 development. 0. And he disrespects the entire organization, talking video games and Netflix in the offseason. Bro. Really. My man Chuba is busting his ass to look good for his second contract. Set himself up for life. How many RBs make it to even sign contract #3? First 2 games he has to run in to a brick wall continuously because Netflix can’t even get it over the LOS.  He’s a kid who pulled off the biggest heist in world history. He looks happier on the sideline goofing around than he ever has looked on the field. It’s time to cut bait.

      I hear you and I can imagine it's frustrating as a fan, but UNC-CH leaving the ACC would be throwing away over a century of history. It would really suck if y'all, or Clemson, or any of the other remaining charter members leave. I still think it sucks that Maryland left as well. Feels so wrong not having that rivalry anymore. Maryland fuging hated us and I loved it. Who's Maryland's rival now in the big 10? Rutgers? lol. Also, I think that the Heels are more likely to be Kentucky 2.0 than you are to get serious about football upon joining the SEC. Both UNC (and also Duke's) administrations seem very stuck in their ways with sticking to their ways and remaining basketball powerhouses. I do wish we could see NC teams actually competing in my favorite sport sometimes but alas. I personally value keeping our history intact over trying to become top flight CFB programs because nowadays it's just a pay to win sport anyways. Even if UNC-CH got serious I doubt they could compete with that Texas oil money, or that Oregon nike money, or that USC rich kid money. That's all top level college football really is anymore. You're either an established blue blood or you're willing to waste tons of money that could be spent on education rather than football.

      Maybe a move to the SEC forces UNC to be more serious about football?   I mean we should be making noise in the weak ACC and we can't even do that. How is Duke better than UNC in football right now? It's honestly sad and pathetic.   It doesn't matter if we get another great QB as you said a QB doesn't mean you have a great roster. A QB can only do so much. We lack elite guys in the trenches. That's how you build a program. It starts up front.
