I believe any DC candidate should be a strong with HC experience.   No reason to settle for less. One that is capable of coaching any scheme.  

Ron does fit those requirements,  although so do others. 

Ron wouldn't be a bad choice, although the search, if there is to be one,  needs to be fair and thorough,  and let the best candidate win the position.  

It's going to come down to whoever they can convince to take it. It's the same situation they faced with trying to find a headcoach.

I'm not buying Peyton and Harbaugh wanted the job here.

Word has it that the Jets will give him the first crack of the HC job for them. Just leave that here...  

Ron’s strength is a culture builder, perfect for stopping a disaster of an org and get them close to normal. Then someone else will have to take over to take them from normalized to good. Ron is not a bad choice for the Jets, but I’m not sure they have the patience to start doing things the right way.

I think we’ll have a decent chance to get Saleh as he’s friends with Canales, good change of scenery for him, and turning around the disaster of a defense that is the Panthers would set him up for a future second chance at a HC job. And he would get paid really well.

Maybe Harbaugh. I think the drive to get back into the NFL was probably fairly strong. Also the challenge presented here would satisfy that competitive edge on him.

I would be in agreement about Peyton.

I would be a little surprised if we have a well-known DC. It will take someone looking for a particular challenge, or someone looking for their big break.

I think he used Tepper to get the Chargers gig.

Very likely. I mean he is back on the West Coast. He went to a team that had some pieces in place but had underachieved. On the other hand, it's all just speculation since he was never really considered here, or offered the job, as far as we know.

He was out as soon as he heard about the Monday morning meetings.

100%.  You got a trainwreck? Well, you hire a Fox, Ron, etc type.  You want over the hump? You replace those types.  Often you can't just jump to the over the hump types because they often aren't good with the pooshow.   Wilks is an example of that mold as well.  

there are some unicorns.  I think Dan Campbell might be an example but rare.

It would be no established HC's first choice, unless that coach just wants to truly rebuild a franchise.

      I don't think he is nearly as bad as people in this board like to act.  You pick up the option without question.

      Happy New Year? Not So Fast...

      By Anybodyhome · Posted

      The Canes decided to ring in the new year with a second shootout loss to Columbus Tuesday night. Same team, same building. The only 2 shootout losses of the season and both to a team who was below .500 at the start of the night. After a 7-2 start of the season in October- remember, most of that was on the road- winning 4 in a row in Edmonton, Calgary, Seattle and Vancouver; returning home to curb-stomp the Bruins 8-2. Freddie Andersen was lost to injury on October 26. November was a second good month with a few more home games to make up for the NC State Fair road trip. Late in the month things began to slide the wrong direction. A loss to NJ on the 2nd game of a b2b followed by the first shootout loss to Columbus. But things might have looked a little better following wins over Dallas and the Rags at home... and then a b2b with Florida to end the month was a disaster, giving up 12 goals while scoring 3. A 9-5-1 month of November isn't enough to complain about, is it? A 63% point month? Not so bad? December was, based on the Canes winning history over the past 6 seasons, a nightmare. 6-6-1 to finish the month with a single 2-game win streak the entire month, beating Columbus and the Islanders. And, to match that effort, the Canes also had a single 2-game losing streak. A loss to Nashville heading into the holiday break and a loss to NJ coming back from the holiday break. A strong answer to that NJ loss was a 2nd game b2b win over NJ the next night. My 2025 starts with much lower expectations as the canes will face Florida on the road Jan 2, followed by home games against a strong Minnesota team and the Pens. And so it goes. If I'm being honest, January looks like another .500 month. Three b2b sets, starting with Saturday-Sunday this weekend at home; next Thursday-Friday at home and a b2b road trip in Chicago and Dallas. I've got the Canes pegged for 7 losses in a January filled with 15 games. The trade deadline is March 8th this year. And don't forget the 4 Nations Face-Off with Canada, Finland, Sweden and the USA from February 12-20. The Canes play their last game heading into the tournament on Feb 8 and don't return until Feb 22.
