Its pretty attractive.

This with additional context

[Forty-Eight]

Not very attractive unless we get a top 10 pick. This is a team with an inexperienced owner. A team with no QB and a bunch of free agents. We do have 38-39mil in cap but that’s no a lot of money anymore in today’s NFL.

Y’all can’t argue that Cam won’t be here because the new coach won’t want him here and then argue that Cam won’t be a factor for the value of the job. The option of taking a risk and starting fresh or starting with a MVP QB is absolutely an attractive role.

Good young pieces to build around: CMC. Luke, Burns etc. 

But the uncertainty at QB may make it hesitant for an elite offensive mind to come here.

I’d say it depends on what the owner is really all about, which none of us know.  

Wait I thought you said he was just another JR but younger.  LOL

This has to be one of the most attractive head coaching positions in the league, not factoring in nostalgic reasons with classic teams.

First Tepper, as has been mentioned, is the richest owner in the league dedicated to winning. He's not the type of billionaire that just wants to sit comfy and cash in on PSLs. Tepper is a guy who thinks ahead of the curve and will spare no expense to make the franchise a success. How could you not love that as a coach?

Then you have the region, which as everyone here knows is a top location in the country for people relocating to due to cheaper cost of living, weather and general awesomeness of this state.

From a team perspective, Carolina has tools that many teams looking for a new head coach do not have. Playmakers on defense and arguably the best RB in the league. Generally when a team has a head coaching vacancy the roster is a complete dumpster fire. This is not that roster.

Pretty damn attractive. 

Yall gotta remember there are only 32 NFL teams. Every single one of these HC jobs is attractive. 

Plus the Panthers have an organization with a forward thinking owner not some jackass like Daniel Snyder or overbearing lunatic like Jerry Jones. 

Charlotte is a great place to live. 

Despite the Huddle permanently in defcon one this team has a lot of young talent and all of our future picks.

We have a franchise QB AND the ability to move on from him at no cost if need be. 

Really it doesn't get much better than that.

It is onenof the better gigs availible. The inly thing i dodnt lukenis that coaches have to be afraid that our owner will fire them mid season like he did to rivera. That puts us in a category with the browns and oakland imo... but other than that, probably the best job availible.

Speaking of Atlanta...

Michael Lombardi is speculating that the Falcons will go after Greg Roman as their next head coach.

(I know some folks are going to absolutely love hearing that)

[CatTower]

You guys are underestimating expectations.  There will be big expectations for the new coach to turn this thing around and quick.  That's a tough job with a HUGE question mark at QB.  Our best shot at a decent coach is getting one of the top QBs in the draft.  No Coach is going to want to gamble on Cam his first year.

What is Greg Roman going to do with a immobile pocket passer?

Re: the bolded part, I am glad, because that's what we all want.

Re: the next QB, the coach is going to be hired long before the draft, so he will be able to consult with the GM in making that decision

Who's our quarterback next year?

There's also a belief that Atlanta might go after a young quarterback to be Matt Ryan's successor.

They are married to Matt Ryan's contract for the next 2-3 years at the minimum. I would think investing a first round pick in a QB would be rather unwise unless the plan is to move him in a trade.
