  1. Corbett... One of the things he says in the article is that, like Bradley Bozeman, James Campen was one of the reasons he came here. This coming year, you could potentially hear that sort of thing from players at several positions. A reminder that coaching matters...in a lot of ways.
  2. Some really fun moments from the year, including Darnold's rolling touchdown and some of Laviska Shenault's crazy moves. As an aside, I know it's Darnold but when I see that #14 on a Panther Jersey right now, I can't help thinking it's Frank Reich
  3. I'd expect that to mean that the full staff is gonna be announced shortly.
  4. Person throws a different name out there for TE Coach
  5. There are people who do, including some on this board. Three guesses what they say...
  6. More appropriate choice would have been "Booted".
  7. Dude, don't try to talk like an insider. By your own admission, you don't know.
  8. Contract details, maybe? Lord knows everybody's getting paid.
  9. Word is that job's likely going to Jeff Nixon.
  10. Two other guys who didn't allow their quarterbacks to audible: Adam Gase, and if I remember correctly, Matt Rhule (at least for Darnold). Doesn't really sound like a characteristic of smart coaches.
  11. Looking like Patullo will be staying in Philly as well since the Colts hired Jim Bob Cooter as their OC. Wonder if there's some kind of assistant role he could be hired to here.
  12. Cooter to the Colts... That means Kevin Patullo isn't getting the job
  13. Breer adds this in regard to Brian Johnson and Kevin Patullo... • It sure looks like Brian Johnson is staying in Philly, after walking away from the chance to join Frank Reich’s all-star staff in Carolina. Which means he’s in line, once the proper search process is complete, to succeed Steichen as Eagles offensive coordinator. • That would probably free up Kevin Patullo to return to Indy, where he was receivers coach under Reich, as Steichen’s offensive coordinator, once their process is complete.
  14. From the latest MMQB (Link) I really like what the Panthers are doing with their coaching staff. You’ve seen the hires. David Tepper struck a check to convince Ejiro Evero to come to Carolina, rather than go to Minnesota with his buddy Kevin O’Connell. They pried the Rams’ assistant head coach, Thomas Brown, from Los Angeles to be their OC and bring some McVay influence to their offense. They’ve hired respected position coaches like Duce Staley (who will also be assistant head coach) and Shawn Jefferson, and taken chances on guys like DeAngelo Hall. And it all goes back to what owner David Tepper said: There’s no salary cap on coaches. In Tepper’s hiring go-round, that meant giving then Baylor coach Matt Rhule a seven-year, $63 million deal to choose Carolina over his dream job with the Giants. In Round 2, it’s meant surrounding Frank Reich with a staff stocked with rising coaches and established teachers, and it’s going to be fascinating to see how this turns out. To be sure, there are owners in the NFL who’d prefer that spending on coaches—both on the guys in charge and their assistants—stay under control. Some have even worked to ensure it. But with the deal Sean Payton got in Denver from the league’s newest owners, and what the league’s second-newest owner is doing in Charlotte, and what happened last year (with what Miami’s Steve Ross, who just paid his new DC nearly $5 million per, offered Payton), it’s clear where the tide is going on all this. I say good. Owners should be investing money back into the product, and I applaud Tepper for doing that. Now, if the owners would only do the same with officiating and the fields, we’d be all set.
  15. Not so much a wish as an expectation but I'm good with it
  16. Our former (temporary) DL coach under Rhule is out of work again Rhule already filled that position at Nebraska too
