If We Go 6-10 Again, Shula , Rivera , Dorsey, Hurney all gone, Who Do You Hire and Why?

So if the nightmare senario comes true at least it would lead to a pretty interesting off season. Lets just say you are JR, the fans are getting pretty short tempered with the franchises stagnation 2 years strait after a SB and you decide to make a very bold move, clean house withthe offensive staff and probably let a bunch of veterans go (ex. Stew, R.Kalil, CJ , TD) , what coaches would you bring in as replacements and why? And who would you draft if we had around #8 pick again? 

yea I know its early for this poo but I could see this happening if the team continues to poo the bed for the rest of the season. And watching what happen to the Rams after a coaching staff overhaul has me wondering what we could look like with a totally different coaching philosophy and system installed.

Jon Gruden is a popular unlikely name people throw out there, but I'd honestly love to see what he could do with Cam. Leave Wilks in as DC with Gruden as HC basically just controlling game flow and the offense while letting Wilks do his thing with the defense.

what about OC, QB Coach, GM?

Here's my worry with Wilks. 

If you promote Wilks, does he go after his own staff or keep the current staff in place?

Obviously, you can make a good argument for keeping the defensive staff in place. But would he fire the offensive staff?

Remember, these are guys that he's been working with the last several years.

Another lazy choice on the surface but I do like Dorsey from the Chiefs, and Scot McCloughan is another solid talent evaluator and GM choice. Both are like DG though... Meaning JR won't come within a foot of them.

 

OC/QB coach... No idea. Young upcoming guys that the HC wants to bring in works for me. And I don't mean someone like Dorsey...

There's no way Wilks would keep Shula as OC. No way. Maybe if he was promoted to interim he would keep him here during the year but after that, no way.

When it comes to OCs, I actually like fired offensive head coaches.

    • this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.  
    • The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.
    • My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
