How many seasons until Scott Turner becomes a head coaching candidate?

Everyone has been clamoring about Norv Turner and how much better he has made the Panthers offense in 2018. And rightfully so, Norv has improved the Panthers offense in just about every way compared to Shula's tenure in Carolina.

But how much of an impact has his son Scott Turner made as QB coach? Norv has mentioned that he has gleaned some ideas from his son as far as modern aspects to offensive playcalling. Scott Turner famously came up with the "Annexation of Puerto Rico" play from the 2011 game against the Texans. And the coaching carousel set to spin again this offseason. Will Scott Turner be getting some looks as a head coach as soon as this offseason? How many seasons could we expect him to stay in Carolina? Is he being groomed to take over as offensive coordinator for the Panthers, when his 66 year old father inevitably retires? 

I might be jumping the gun here, but I have to think that in an offensively charged NFL, a lot of teams hungry for young and creative head coaches akin to Sean McVay might see the progress Cam Newton has made and roll the dice on Scott Turner developing their young QB.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.

      Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
