I could be wrong on this but I think the only guys Carolina has looked at for the DC position have primarily worked with 4-3 defenses with the exception of Fangio so it is plausible we may stay 4-3

So I am assuming Marquand Manuel or Kris Richard for DC?

So bringing in coaches from past generations: Vic Fangio and John Fox... A little nostalgia there

https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/2023/01/27/panthers-hc-frank-reich-interview-cardinals/ Apparently he was in "high demand"

I just don't see Reich picking up a vet at QB except to be be a bridge until the rookie QB is ready. And from everything I am reading about Reich, he tends to like QBs with size so a guy like Bryce Young or a Brock Purdy like QB may be out of question. Something screams Levis as a guy Reich would like to have.

Really? When was that said? I must of missed it

I wonder when Reich's introductory presser will be

I posted this another thread but if Kellen Moore is let go from Dallas, I could see him coming in as OC and be one of those "waiting in the wings" guys. I mean, Reich is 61 but still has several years left in him to coach but eventually will need a contingency plan once Reich decides to retire if it gets to that point.

Slightly off topic but is there way to "fire" Frank Reich in Madden 23 and "hire" him onto the Panthers?

I didn't read all the posts about the Dallas coaches but is Moore under contract with Dallas or not? If not, what would you say if Frank Reich was hired as HC and Moore as OC as "someone waiting in the wings" type of OC that could eventually replace Reich when he retires?

Look, I will support Wilks or Reich if they become the HC BUT Wilks is not my first choice by no means. Regardless, I just hope either will learn lessons from their last go around and make sound decisions on the offensive side of the ball because otherwise, we will be back in the same position in two years.

Why do I have a sneaky suspicion that it's going to wind up being Moore? All the arguing and debating on here between Reich/Wilks/Steichen and we end up with Moore... Wonder what the huddle will be like if that happens? lol

That would be such a Tepper thing to do lol

Thanks!!! It was a good listen. Some highlights: - Albright believes Payton may be returning to Fox and will wait till next year to see if one of the LA teams or Dallas opens up. - He also believes the final two is between Wilks and Steichen with Steichen having the edge because Tepper wants a young, offensive minded coach to pair with a rookie QB. - Speaking of rookie QB, Albright has been hearing that the Panthers will do anything it takes to get Stroud but the Bears may be the surprise team to take a QB. - Julian Council asked why Wilks didn't get more looks around the league and Albright said that it was due to the lack of openings and that the teams already had guys in mind they wanted to interview and stated that many owners are following the trend and want an offensive minded coach because the league is centered on offense but also thinks that being a minority coach could also be a reason. - Also talked about the DC position, in particular, about Fangio coming here. He believes that Fangio will look at other options and only will consider Carolina if only the other options will not work out. Also stated that he doesn't know who Steichen would hire but imagines it will be his own staff and that him and Jonathan Gannon (rumored to be the front runner in Houston) will be a bidding war for some of the guys from the Eagles' staff. I am sure I missed some stuff and most stuff is things we already know but some points were interesting...

My apologies if this has been posted buuut... Benjamin Albright joins the Locked on Panthers Podcast to talk about Sean Payton and the Panthers HC search

A little off topic but the one thing I have never been able to figure out is how to post a tweet on here... What is the secret to this wizardly?

Oh I am sure he is but it's more about everyone thinking we will go offensive minded

I am going to laugh soooo hard if we end up with Evero

Actually, Steichen came from the Norv Turner tree and there is rumblings of him and Scott Turner joining forces

Going with Kellen Moore over Steichen/Wilks/Payton would be such a Panther thing to do

I'd take Callahan over Kafka or Dorsey

I just posted that same question, basically
