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.

    • I think there is good points in this thread to what the team needs to do. 1) Ball isn't really the issue but, he needs reigned in.  Coach and he need to realize when things aren't falling from the three and learn to play other facets of the game.  He's an amazing talent and when he's on, he's on.  But he can also shoot you out of a game.  We're lucky Miami went that way but that is too many missed threes.  He still needs to bulk up if he can, but he needs to drive more.  He's pretty good at finishing usually and hopefully the fouls come (probably not though).   2) The whole team needs to be more physical.  As others have stated, we need more bulk in our bigs.  Diabate is a hurricane of energy but cannot go against the larger centers.  I love him on the team but he should be more of a match up type guy or energy off the bench.  I think he'd be insane off the bench.  However I think the biggest issue with Diabate and Kaulk is the lack of offensive game.  The lack of a jump shot or anything.  Teams figured out to just leave them on the screen and crash lanes.  There has to be some sort of threat.  We need a 4 and a 5 that can do those things and stretch out the court. 3) Bridges.  He's just undersized.  However, I feel he really threw his all into it the last few weeks when others were gassed.  He was ok not being a focal point.  I'd like to have him off the bench as well but I assume he'd be traded to make things work.  4) Miller.  Dude can light it up when on, but disappears for quarters at a time.  Also he needs to work on ball handling and passing.  He's a turnover machine at bad times.  Also hopefully over the injury so he can bulk up too.   5) Kon. Just a rookie.  Long season and back injury.  I have no doubt he'll be back stronger and focused.  Needs to work on defense and physicality like the whole team but yes, a rookie he'll get there. 6) Coby.  Has to be resigned, no question.  The bench lineup is rough without him running the point.  Team has big potential and the front office seems sharp.  They seen the hive and how crazy it got and how much the city wants this.  
    • I still go back to the beat writers having a read on Rodriguez IF he was in play at 19.  If Dan puts his nuts on the table and takes him, pretty solid job of keeping the secrets in house.
