when people say they want a Sean McVay type they don't mean a 32 year old offensive genius that could coach us for the next 3 decades. they mean they want to take a CHANCE on a young innovative offensive mind. some fresh blood.

No doubt. I want the same. Slim picking tho, that's all I meant.

Definitely the next I had in mind. Look around the league at the dominant teams. Aggressive offensive minded coaches. Lincoln Riley with a seasoned NFL DC would be my first choice.

The one reservation I have is that he's only 35 with no NFL experience. That's a bit worrisome in terms of commanding the respect of an NFL locker room. Sean McVay is younger, but virtually all of his coaching experience has come at the NFL level. Managing grown ass men NFL players wasn't new to him.

yea 100% of McVays coaching experience is from the NFL. he started as an assistant WR coach for the bucs in 2002 when he was 22.

unfortunately Riley has said he's not interested at the moment.

Great call but not sure if he’d take the job. If Hurney is doing the hire, look for a “hard-nosed, defensive-minded” (read: dumbass pussy) coach

i can't see a scenario where Rivera is fired and Hurney stays.

agreed. i only responded because a lot of people here seem to get upset when people mention a McVay-type hire. they always come up with something like "WHAT DO YOU THINK ELITE PLAY CALLERS GROW ON TREES?"

 

i just want a shot at one.

Of course that's what he's saying at the moment. It's what he should be saying. His team is likely headed to the CFB playoffs. The last thing they need right now is the distraction of their coach talking about being interested in NFL jobs.

      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.

      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.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
