It's Clear--Complete Rebuild Around Cam, Luke, & Olsen

I don't typically host negative threads but I've gotta get this out there.   It's year 5/6 with Cam & Luke running the ship.  By now-a fine tuned well oiled machine should have been made but hot damn, there is structural damage, not just some dents.  It seems the whole engine that propelled the SB run blew up.  It's just not the same team and we need something to ignite it.  

*It isn't a dumpster fire or completely falling apart but there is a clear signal to change before those happen. Note-in a weird turn of events, at the same time of feeling this, I think that our current organization has the ability to turn this year around.  This is without even making the changes I'll propose but the problem is that we've yet again, come to this juncture.  I'm not saying, do this right now, because it's just not feasible but the time has come to recalibrate how the team is built and our strategies on both sides of the ball.  

Primary Objectives:

Fire the coaching staff.  Seriously, get them out.  Acquire a top pass rusher. Acquire a top safety.  

Safe: Cam, Luke, Olsen, Turner (That's it IMHO).  We have a case where there's too many that need to go to the point where you have to consider all of the expendables.      

Why?

I think we all know why at this juncture.  

I've loved what Ron has been able to do but I'm seeing coaching fatigue and the same problems we had year one with him and to top it off, just bad execution, staff evaluation, and there's no discipline with the team this year.  I'm not giving the guy another break.   This is like the 3rd season where's this has happened.  He should be beyond certain things he's falling back into.  

Player wise--the old guys that many disliked signing were key in my opinion.  Tillman, Harper, etc.  They were older and had hiccups but there's no issue with fundamentals.   We are throwing guys out there that shouldn't be without vets there to show them what's up.  Experienced WRs are having a field day with us.  

Why are you posting?

In a nutshell, I don't think it could be much worse for the foundational players than it is now anyways so it makes for the perfect time to blow it up and rebuild around them for the long haul/second leg of their tenure.  Many players in the NFL with the rare exception of a Brady/Bill B combo go through this.  

Re-establish how we are built (which should be from the lines out) and get new blood in town.

Serviceable Interim Option

Steve Wilks babay.  Many know he is the in-practice general for us and I think he's a completely viable guy to have as an interim HC who can win.  

Promote Ricky Proehl to OC.  Not Dorsey.  IMG is fool's gold and it's full of underperforming former players trying to teach.  

Happy times ;)  Flame away.  I've made it to this point; I just really don't like this coaching staff.

I've already been sitting through over half a decade of rebuilding with Cam and Luke. 

Thanks for the kind words.  I'm speaking both staff and personnel...and we've had the same HC since day 1 with Cam.

no way dude. we're close, we just need a tune-up. this whole thing can be fixed in an offseason.

I agree.  Just sucks that it wasn't fixed last offseason. I don't understand how a team that has its deficiencies put under a microscope during that poo super bowl does nothing to address them

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?

      I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
