Regarding the Slowik news...

Slowik and Canales don't have any common history that I know of offhand, but I haven't done any research on it.

Also not sure that we have any offensive coaching positions open outside of adding a consultant or something of that sort. 

(we do have a couple of defensive staff positions available, but that's not his thing)

Thoughts?

Panthers culture is a moron.   Come here in what capacity?

From what I'm gathering from Texans fans, they hated Slowik and are very glad he's gone. Why? I can't seem to nail down exact reasons other than being unwilling to adjust, and some general grumbling about the offense from a few Texans players. The current staff already got Bryce off the ground and playing a lot better, and so I don't see Slowik being that helpful there. Finally, I don't see Canales relinquishing playcalling duties except maybe someone already within his circle that he trusts, not really some guy from the outside he doesn't really know.

Their fans it appears are blaming him for the Dell injury which is moronic at best

No idea. Nothing I know of is open.

Pretty sure he was just an assistant to an assistant or something lower level. Doubt Slowik wants to go that far down the ladder

It's funny after last season all you read was how bs worked with stroud created an offense that fit him Yada Yada Yada and now the oline completely let's him down.  A ton of injuries and they still won a game and got robbed at kc and he is fired.   Something ain't adding up

I haven't looked closely enough at that situation to form an opinion.

Maybe personnel was the problem, maybe injuries, maybe Stroud regressed, maybe this, maybe that...or maybe Slowik really was just a one year flash in the pan.

Hell, even Mike Shula looked like an offensive genius for one season. Gotta be consistent to prove it, though.

This is a worse hire than Prime. Cowboys are doomed until Jerry is gone. They have talent but the coaching hires are so uninspiring. 

It’s strikes me that Jerry wants another Jason Garrett like head coach. Someone that won’t upset the apple cart or make great demands. You’re probably correct that they won’t see real success again until Jerry is gone, perhaps like Washington since Synder sold up.

Someone was saying on Twitter how Slowik moved away form the 21 personnel to the 11 personnel because of the Diggs acquisition and when Nico went down it was bad news bears trying to run 3 receivers and poo really hit the fan when Diggs went out later.

Someone had to take the fall for strouds regression.  Fair or not, time will tell.

Seemed like a pretty classic case of the sophomore slump to me.  I wouldn’t be too worried about it unless Stroud doesn’t bounce back next season.
