McDermott's name heating up

[ickmule]

Wutevuh. As long as RR is the head coach this D will be nasty.

[AceBoogie]

Ron has had a top defense everywhere he's been. McDermott can't say that. It's Ron's defense, just need someone to call the plays

I'm really sick of other teams been able to nic pic at other teams DC/OC to head coach. Really think the only way it should be is that should have the right to refuse for any other team to talk with you personnal. This is why the Panthers have never been able to have back to back winning seasons. Because right after we have a good season. A team wants to come after our best people. And some of you say there would not be much of a drop off if McD leaves for HC job. Remember 2003. Right after the SB Del Rio got a HC position off from the Jags. 2003 was the year our D was top 5 in defense. After Del Rio left. Our D production fell off and was never the same. Trust me when I say if McD leaves. You can kiss our team production good by. It will 2003 all over again. Ron is the HC. Ron can't do everything on this team a lone. If I was JR and DG. I would be offering McD a nice fat contract with plenty of money to stay. If not don't be surprise if our D production goes down and we are not top 10 next year.

 

Del Rio's only year coaching as the Panthers DC was 2002......he had nothing to do with the Cardiac Cats Super Bowl run.

Well, maybe for a time, (something like you could refuse talks until the last year of DC/OC's contract) otherwise a team would be standing in the way of a young coach's career.

Was thinking of this today. He's not going anywhere for the same reason Mike Zimmer isn't. Teams don't want to hire a defensive minded coach in a league that is so dictated by offense. Other than Rex Ryan, Ron rivera and Marvin Lewis; who else around the league is a defensive coach?

[Chaos]

I hope McD isn't courted by a team with tons of salary cap space, increasing the likelihood that he takes the Kraken with him.  That would suck.

[Mr. Scot]

It's generally accepted that Steve Wilks gets the DC job if McDermott departs.

Leslie Frazier's background is as a DB coach, so Rivera could ask him to backfill (if he were willing).

[Zod]

I can't think of one DC in the league that would not love to coach Luke long term.

[Anybodyhome]

Nobody can talk to him until the Panther's season ends, though, right?

Fox, Belichick, Tomlin, Mike Smith, John Harbaugh, Fischer, Allen, Pagano, Lewis, Ryan, Rivera, Carroll, Bradley

That is 13.

Schiano, Frazier, and Schwartz were

That made 16 this year. Exactly half the league

It's near certainly going to be Wilks.
