Harbaugh to Miami - he and their owner are both Michigan guys and good friends. 

Rhule to Michigan 

Flores to Carolina

 

It really is a 3-ring circus!!!

I'm still really surprised that Flores was fired. He had really seemed to hit on something in Miami in the 2nd half a of the season. Seemed like there was a lot to build on there.

I think he probably ends up with the Giants job.

I think the Giants are a possibility, but I also think the Giants and Daboll have mutual interest.

Miami is my favorite AFC team, 2nd favorite team behind the Panthers. I was a Miami fan before Carolina got a team. I still follow them closely.

Flores - his teams have started slow each year and came on strong. A lot of that is personnel change over each offseason as Miami had a lot picks recently. His defenses have been really good most of the time. We have good defensive personnel here for his defensive schemes, better personnel than he had in Miami. The biggest concerns from the Miami side is the handling of Tua, and that he has had 4 offensive coordinators in 3 years. I will add that believe it or not, their Oline was/is actually a good bit worse than ours. Their Oline ranks near or may be the worst ever recorded this year. 

My opinion Flores would be a good hire, but he must bring better Offensive coaches than he had in Miami

I could be wrong but as an outsider looking in, I just don't think that Flores was ever on the Tua wagon. Kinda feels like Tua was forced on him and they were never on the same page.

I keep hearing it was mutual between Flores, Grier, and Ross to draft Tua. Where it went south was when Deshaun Watson became available. DW's fiance lives a couple houses down on the same neighborhood as Flores, and apparently DW and Flores have a good relationship. This drove a lot of the DW to Miami rumors because Flores wanted him. Their GM is just a yes middle man. Owner Ross said they could pull the trigger on a trade if all 22 counts were taken care of first. When 4 of the 22 refused to settle, Ross put a stop to the trade.  Flores wanted to pull the trigger anyway.

Makes sense.

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
