What's the rush?

 

Season hasn't even ended yet. 

It ended for us 

[Wolfcop]

Indeed. I’m willing to be patient to find the right fit.

I disagree, honestly. I think if it was Wilks, he would have been announced once we completed the final Rooney interview. The longer the process goes, the more I believe that Tepper has zero'd in on Steichen and is waiting for him to be eliminated or after the Super Bowl.

Seems clear we're waiting on Steichen. But it would be a very classic Panthers outcome for him to turn us down opt to stay with the Eagles and us end up crawling back to Wilks. Could see it going either way. But my preference is obviously anything but the status quo.

I am not sure there is anything clear about our direction at the moment.

He already interviewed with us right? I don’t think he would waste his time to simply turn us down.

Annnnnnd this is what I’m trying to brace myself for and totally expect to have happen

It's never a good idea to rush a major decision.

There is no need to rush we have plenty of time. Just make sure we hire the right guy this time.

 

Rhule set us back big time.

Agree with this. No need to rush. Play it cool. 

regarding Ruhle, you are 100% right that his hire was so bad it may take a couple years to get over it. Completely f*clef our franchise six ways to Chelsea.

Already have my spot reserved for the “Fire Wilks”. 
We will be serving “I Told You So” alcohol. It is as bland and boring as Wilks is. 

Concerning Wilks, in my opinion, the biggest indictment against him is the 21 play, 91 yard, 11:43 drive engineered by MITCH TRUBISKY. Let me repeat that: Mitch Trubisky! Steve, you simply COULD NOT allow that to happen in what turned out to be your biggest game as head coach.

I will cut him some slack on the Buc loss due to the injuries. But not the Steeler game. His coaching life was on the line in that one. He flunked.

Hey I hope not but it happens. Just ask the Charlotte Hornets. And that coach actually took the job initially haha.

poor Hornets…..

[Jackie Lee]

Dorsey didn't live up to the hype from that first Bills/Rams game. Also seems to have anger management issues 

 

[Mr. Scot]

Apparently this is true...

 

[45catfan]

Please hire Payton, Broncos organization, before Tepper does something stupid.  If there were zero strings attached to Payton, I wouldn't be opposed.  The steep buyout and total control is a deal breaker for me.

Maybe...

Kaye thinks if Steichen isn't the primary target, the Panthers could wrap things up within the week.

If we were really stoked about retaining Wilks it would have been done the next day after the Rooney rule was satisfied.
