If teams start courting Chud for HC....

[TheRealDeal]

Naw, if it's for a promotion, he can tell the Panthers to eat asshole and walk out

[Swedish Butt-Whistle]

The answer to this question is... He's building something very special here, If he left, he simply doesn't have love for the game. Nobody in their right mind would leave this offense..

He sticks around for atleast 3 seasons minimum.

[TheRealDeal]

It's his career. Big raise, title he's worked for, opportunity to create a team in his vision > Cam Newton.

[Brooklyn Bully]

LOL at anyone who thinks he MUST stay here bc he's building something special, is genius with the X and O, etc. Coaches dream to be a HC. If a team offers him a job he is going to take it and more power to him. As for the question, no. Chud is as unproven as Ron. May as well stick with the guy with a year under his belt.

[DaCityKats]

pretty sure he would not pass up a HC job to be a OC.

[Swedish Butt-Whistle]

Really? I don't know.. I guess more times than not you may be right but look at Billy Beane who passed up millions to stay with Oakland A's... Players go for the highest bidder, Coaches go for the trophies.

[TruCatzFan]

I think he'll stay for at least 2 more years. His stock will only go up in the next couple years.

[Way Truth Life]

yep. Rivera is garbage.

[DaCityKats]

i think it depends on what team comes calling.

[Cyberjag]

Cam Newton would make Jeff Davidson look competent. So no, I would not give Chud a HC position based on this season. But someone probably will, and it will be a shame when it happens...

[TheGreatestOfAllTimeCam]

Nah, don't fire Riviera.

But maybe tell Chud he is the HC in waiting.

[Vagrant]

Here is the thing..... you have to be able to determine how much of what we're doing is Cam and how much of what we're doing is Chud. While I do LOVE the play calling creativity from Chud, it wouldn't mean a damn thing without Cam Newton under center to execute the plays. We could MUCH more easily replace Chud with somebody who thinks the same way than it would be for Chud to go somewhere else and create another Cam Newton. It cannot be done. There is only one.

Plus, Chud's playcalling when the Panthers have the lead has actually cost us a few times. Not saying he's doing a poor job, but let's be real now. Cam Newton will have OC's lined up for this job if Chud leaves for somewhere else. I know we're not used to being a desirable location for coaches but that's changing.

NFL Policy for interviewing...

http://www.dawgtalkers.net/uploads/2009%20NFL%20Anti-Tampering%20Policy.pdf

Head-Coaching Opportunity. If a club is interested in discussing its head

coaching position with an assistant coach whose playing season (excluding Pro

Bowl) is over, and who is contractually obligated to another club, the assistant

coach’s employer club must permit the coach the opportunity to discuss, and

possibly accept, such employment through March 1 of any year.

Removing Ron for Chud would be a Miami like move, and would reflect poorly on our ownership.

[JawnyBlaze]

Since you think you know everything, let me clarify something for u...

Being that he's under contract, he would have to get permission from the FO before he would be able to talk to any other teams.

So yeah, the Panthers have plenty of say as to whether he goes or not.

Think before u type

Since you know nothing, let me clarify something for you...

Promotions

The NFL does not differentiate between levels of assistant coaches in its rules regarding their availability to interview with other teams. Whether the coach is a defensive line coach or an offensive coordinator, the rules are the same. If a team wishes to interview an assistant coach who is still under contract with another team for its head coaching position, the current team is required to give permission for the interview as long as it happens between the end of the team's season and March 1. After March 1, teams can still ask, but the current team is not obligated to give permission.

A team is required, I'm assuming by the NFL Coaches Association, to allow coordinators to interview for Head Coaching jobs for other teams.
