After the debacle on Sunday, I am ready to move on to a totally different regime.  My first choice is Shane Steichen. 

He has excelled with Hurts as QB.  A very mobile Cam like QB.  Big, Strong and an added weapon in the running game.

I would imagine he would improve our current WR group making them from average to an above average group. 

I would also think that he would probably want Minshew to come along because he knows the offense which would be a plus while we get our new QB up to speed.  

So let's say Tepper gets him as our Head Coach. 

What is your first free agent move?

Who is your first pick? 

Do you go TE and run with who we have on the roster, or do you reach for a Hurts like QB like Richardson at 8 (supposing that we remain at 8)? 

Who does he bring in as a Defensive Coordinator?

I wonder what kind of leader he will be? Some of these offense gurus turn out to be absolute failures and other prove to be worth it. It's a risk but I understand one worth taking. Hopefully he is as good a leader as he is at his current position. If we get him I of course am all in on supporting him as I always am no matter who we have on the field or coaching. Certainly nobody could ever be worse a leader or decision maker than Rhule anyhow so he has to be an upgrade over that guy.

Dom Capers was an excellent DC, not much of a Head Coach but a great DC.  The only question is does his defense fit against today's offenses?  Many rule changes since he last coached.

Also if he were to become a DC we'd have a better chance of him staying as a DC than to move into a head coaching position.

I’m hoping we look at other candidates as well. As someone posted earlier, some of these offensive “gurus” turn out to be not so good leaders of men, which is a more important qualification for a HC. I’m hoping Tepper, Fitt and co. will cast a wide net in their search. I’m curious to see for example what a Frank Reich (experience), Ben Johnson or Demeco Ryans (young up and coming playcallers) would bring to the table if considered.

Someone else mentioned it here but I think you absolutely need to hire an offensive guy for your head coach and roll the dice that he's a good leader. Even for this example if you hire coach that is not your offensive guy and hire a stud OC he just gets picked up by another team. I think for that reason alone this position regardless of who it is has to be and offensive guy

This would be my choice as well. We need to have some QB development here. Jake was the last QB I can remember on this team getting better as time went on. Cam was the guy from day 1, they didn't even try to develop him, he was that good. Other then that no one grew, how they looked when they got here is how they look when they left.

And occasionally one is so far ahead of the curve that being a piss poor leader doesn't even matter until the rest of the NFL finally starts catching up. Mike Martz.

      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...
