Supposedly ATL has been monitoring his situation. I assume for their DC. 

Word is he could be and play for a couple of different DC jobs.

I cant believe they legit tried to get Reich to agree to OC/assistant HC or Wilks as DC/ assistant HC with the other as the HC. 

 

The tweet says "this is my opinion" and you walked away with it as fact..... that's concerning.

That could only work in a Wilks HC scenario.

It would split the locker room if Wilks remains but demoted back to DC.

Agreed. The biggest drawback is, we may not be able to hang on to Reich long in that scenario.

They might also be waiting on Holcomb, who is waiting on Wilks.  Didn't they interview him?

Great confidence booster for our rookie QB. We should be able to pass all over them. Our offensive line should stop Wilks blitzing.

its for holcomb, not wilks.

why is this team consistently at the mercy of who manages to buddy it up with businessman outsider Dave tepper in the interview and not the individual with the strongest on field resume’

Right.  This could be a double-win for us Panthers fans.

I was gonna make a thread prediction how it all played during the zenith of Payton hype and so far it looks like I’ve nailed it

->Payton hype fizzles then withers away 
->Steichen emerges as favorite candidate, long enough for everyone to get excited 
->team begins redirecting attention elsewhere in attempt to suppress expectations 
->Hires Frank Reich

shame I didn’t pull the trigger on posting it, so far it looks like it’s been spot on 

Sounds like the same typical depressing Panthers offseason of years past. I think it is just a given that we will never have intelligent ownership and we will forever be stuck with below average or worse coaches...

Honestly, it's a pretty fitting curse for our dumpster fire of an organization...

I'll just have my fingers crossed that at some point Tepper gets embarrassed at how inept of an owner he is or bored with owning this team and decides to sell to an owner that isn't a perennial loser like him.

yeah falcons are coming out of cap purgatory now that ryan and julio are coming off the books and could make some moves in the offseason. this or holcomb would kneecap that so hard

I mean... Reich's resume is pretty damn strong man.  Instrumental in the Philly offense that won the Super Bowl.  4 top 10 scoring offenses in the last 6 years.  Great staff builder.  Numerous connections throughout the league.  

Ben Johnson was my #1 choice and even I'd say Reich has a stronger resume than him.  With Johnson, you are mostly projecting.
