HC Candidates & their potential schemes

[Mage]

I would honestly rather continue to suck with Ron Rivera than hire Gary Kubiak and continue to suck with him.  At least with Rivera he'd probably just get fired after 2015.  Kubiak would probably stick around for 3 years stinking it up because the thought process will be he needs time to get the team how he wants it.

IMO, there's no way Richardson lets Dave fire Rivera. Shula is definitely gone and I wouldn't be shocked if McDermott is gone with him.

HC/DC- Rivera

OC- ???

Let Rivera take over as DC and keep himself occupied with what he does best. Hire an offensive guru with HC experience to run the offense. No more ball control run game horse shít. Fix the offense and unleash Cam. Become an offensive team. No more defensive team horse shít. Our best player is a QB. Rivera is a great DC and will be able to keep the defense in the top half of the league without needing Pro Bowlers everywhere. With a great OC running the offense with Cam you don't need a top 5 defense. Rivera just has to accept that and go with it. His way doesn't work in today's league.

The lack of Kyle Shanahan makes me sad.

[top dawg]

Jon Gruden for HC, Steve Logan for OC and RIvera for DC.

[The Huddler]

i just want a coach who will utilize Cam for what he is. A very dynamic and high powered player

Not a game manager

The lack of Kyle Shanahan makes me sad.

 

He's added

The defense has been playing much better and McDermott deserves to stay. 

 

Part of Rivera ineptness might be that Shula doesn't instill too much confidence.  Look back at the 3rd Qtr.  How many 3rd and manageable did we have?  Shula calls a WTF play and we punt.   Gano has been money inside of the 50 and Shula definitely doesn't have a clue how to get a first down on a 3rd and 2 or 3.  I wanted them to go for it but honestly I didn't think he would call a good play and we would have had to kick it from that distance.  

 

Bottom line,  Rivera needs an OC who can convert on 3rd and short.  I agree Richardson keeps Rivera but 2015 is it.  But we need an offensive coordinator the moment the season is over.   Period.

Harbaugh will be available.

In all honesty, I'd like a Harbaugh. We need a coach with some fire.

[FugginPoo]

This team needs a strong personity leading the team

[Huffgolf30]

If Harbaugh's available and i was JR, i'd give him a blank check. But he's not going to want to come to Carolina anyway, so it's pointless to discuss.

[Matthias]

Give me anybody who will have Cam run a majority pro set offense. 

[Paintballr]

Richardson doesn't know who I am.

Even though he wrote paychecks to him for a year as well which is sad

[Nate Dogg]

Jimbo Fisher -esque is exactly what this franchise needs. Always seems to be in total command and understands exactly how the game is flowing.

 

The fact that he has kept that team focused and still winning with all of Jameis' shenanigans is amazing.

[carolina-chuck]

Jim Harbaugh = Who's got it better than us? Nobody!!!
