If they're right, we're gonna be competing with six other teams for head coaching prospects in a year when there aren't as many great prospects as previous years have seen.

Ugh :(

There are plenty of innovative coaches out there. Whether or not we hire one is a completely different story. If DG goes with a coughlin disciple or coughlin himself this fanbase will explode...I don't want any part of Perry Fewell or Kevin Gilbride. No thanks. Please look at the Eagles or Colts...

LOL. Watch us fire Rivera and hire Coughlin.

Dave Gettlemen's blueprint in action.

Fire Dave too. Bring in a HC and GM that can both build together.....on the same page from day 1

 

 

 

Come on you can't really think Gettleman deserves to go after 1.5 seasons?  And that one season we won the NFC South?

that's what gruden supposedly wanted (both HC and GM roles here in charlotte)

I don't think it should be one guy.

But the fact our GMs and HCs are mixed up has cost this franchise and put is in the hole. Hurney should of never been paired with Ron. That started a new era that never got a real shot at success bc the first thing he did was handicap the Rivera era with Fox guys. Now Dave is doing what should of been done at the start of the Rivera era in year 4 screwing Ron.

Firing a GM after two cap-strapped years (one of which was an overachievement) and our actually being in better position capwise than before would be one of the single dumbest moves this franchise could make.

I'm expecting us to go after Gary Kubiak.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
