With new ownership on the horizon I have to believe that Ron knows his choice for OC is extremely important. If the offense continues to stumble it’s probably a certainty that Ron will be working somewhere else very soon.

Which makes me wonder why Ron would interview only Norv Turner when there are other well respected candidates out there. If Norv is the only guy brought in I will be very surprised.

What say the Huddle?

I agree.  If the next one does worse, he's done.  The problem is, we are in the hardest division in football and we made it to the playoffs again.  Many of us believe that  talent on the field compensated for poor scheme.  We all want a powerhouse offense like the Patriots.   We need a scheme that is unpredictable, gives us open receivers and limits the number of running plays that result in a loss.  It needs to build on the limited success our offense has had.

That said, our  defense wasn't perfect this season either.  If we don't fix the secondary, we'll die in the playoffs again.

Swept by the Saints....uhhhg.   Somebody had to pay.

Wilks is clearly at Rooney Rule candidate. It is a stupid rule to have now. The NFL needs to get rid of it. I guess there should be a rooney rule for white players too. Especially at certain positions like cornerback and running back. Just sayin

Damn he should charge $1000 plus expenses and per diem for each interview.

      I liked him when he was at Michigan because I'm a Wolverine homer. After that...

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.
