It's Quiet. Maybe a Little Too Quiet.

With the playoffs still in full swing and lots of head coaching vacancies, the Panthers making a change at OC is hardly newsworthy at all. Rivera has never struck me to be one about fanfare to begin with and at his age and with his experience, I doubt Norv wants some red carpet type treatment. They're both seasoned pros. I think they just want to quietly get to work.

Norv has to move all the way across the country.

I imagine that'll take some time.

There's nothing going on at BOA that he'd have to be around for anyway.

Scot you may know this better than me but how many other instances can you think of of a former HC becoming a coordinator for his own former coordinator as HC?

Quietly working out the details of Cam to the Browns for 1, 4, and more picks.

Saquon Barkley at 1, QB at 4, CMC moved to WR full time, LT at 24.

Offense officially evolved.

You think Cam is worth two top 5 picks in the same draft?

I'd probably have to think about that. I'm guessing it's happened, but I can't think of a particular instance.

I know when he took the Rams job, Dick Vermeil hired some former head coaches. I don't recall whether he actually worked under any of them or not.  I remember Vermeil getting the Eagles job out of college so probably not.

Turner and Mike Zimmer were actually colleagues with the Cowboys if I remember correctly, but obviously neither of them was the head coach there. And of course, Dom Capers wound up going to work for Tom Coughlin, but that wasn't a former colleague thing so much as it was just Capers getting owned.

It's certainly an intriguing question.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
