New GM options?

[davos]

I don't THINK they have any issues with one another (could certainly be wrong)... But Polian left the team to become the VP of the Colts, which was a promotion over what he had in Carolina... He's always spoke fondly of Carolina, so a return wouldn't be unfathomable... And let's face it, the man knows how to build a football team, top to bottom... And how to sustain it...

They've somewhat been on speaking terms but Bill is done with the management side of things in the league. If anything, Chris or Dennis will be working towards getting further in the NFL.

I say bring in Cowher, give him full control as coach and GM

I remember reading something that said this is exactly what Cowher wants, full control. Are there any other coaches like this other than Belichick? I can't think of any other coaches who have "full" control...

[TylerVagyler]

I want Marc Ross

[NanceUSMC]

Peyton Manning fell in his lap. Look at what that roster did without him last season.

So you give Polian no credit for 11 out of 14 winning seasons, hiring one of the best coaches in the games history (Dungy), and 9 consecutive playoff appearances? Yeah, he's crap...

Has anyone noticed a lot of people are just suggesting the 2 retired GMs that they know exist instead of researching?

Give Cowher the keys and let him cut losse!!!

[jarhead]

.Why would you fire the GM mid season? I am not a Hurney fan but question the timing and motives.I think Hurney has been more of a puppet GM so I will be curious as to what prompted the decision during mid-season .

[Dpantherman]

Yea Eric DeCosta is next in line in Baltimore. I don't know if its possible to pry him out.

Guys Cowher is NOT coming here. They're going to hire someone already in the NFL as GM

[rayzor]

He'll likely be paid for the rest of the year, but nothing moving forward.

why? he's not owed anything. there's no contract. the team is under no obligation to pay him at all.

[Dash Global]

Marc Ross.

Giants have studs all on that roster.

[DaCityKats]

Marc Ross or Kevin Colbert.

[The_Mango55]

We should just get the huddle to run the Panthers by consensus obviously. We all have all the answers anyway.

Just some random thoughts about a GM-HC or GM/HC-Assistant HC packages:

Cowher (GM/HC) and Keith Butler (AHC/DC) *even though Cowher is not gonna happen. (maybe haha)

Ross or Abrams (GM) and Perry Fewell (HC)

Will Lewis (GM) and Gus Bradley (HC)
