McCoy liked team chemistry, believes in Cam and Rivera

It was a fantastic sales pitch. I’m sure most teams do their own version of this kind of thing, but I’m guessing there’s a little more emphasis with the new regime at Mint St, Re: going the extra mile for these visits.

I’m glad to see the roster shaping up the way it is. It’s fun to joke around here and post GIFs, but I’m dead serious: this is a championship caliber roster. 

McCoy/Short tandem affords Carolina a wealth of invaluable flexibility. Nickle—you now have two elite interior pass rushers against highly-immobile divisional QB’s who rely on clean pockets and adroit timing. This can wreck a team on 3rd and 7+. This also frees up Poe to focus exclusively on his role at NT, where he thrived in KC. 59 and 54 will be as dynamic as ever in base behind this front. 

Stay healthy, play smart, coach smarter. This is about as loaded as it gets.

McCoy and Short gives Carolina so much flexibility. Nickle—you now have two elite interior pass rushers against highly-immobile divisional QB’s who rely on clean pockets and adroit timing.

Poe looks about 100 pounds lighter than actuality in this graphic. He should be the biggest guy in the picture and instead he looks like he's the smallest by a significant margin.

It’s almost like being a player’s coach has advantages.

This.

RR will be running the defense and is absolutely loved by the players.  Mccoy is coming from Tampa where he had what, 3 head coaches?  This is one situation where RR's relationship with players payed off.

Great point. Stability! Players like teams with a culture not a turnstile.

Everybody is talking about the 3-4 but just imagine how much better our 4-3 could look this season. The rotation will be crazy. The front four is fearsome once more.

I'm liking that the defense is adding on 3-4 concepts and planning multiple fronts. Rivera's toybox got filled this season, him and Washington are some very happy dudes today. Time to work!

Makes this even more impressive.

He realized his most competitive spot is going to be here. Plus division rival old team that left on sour terms. 

Plus I’m pretty sure the highest overall paycheck was here. Even if they did offer more guaranteed.

I really hope we don’t go vanilla 3-4. I’d much prefer to see hybrid and still nickel.

    • Canales is in the middle of the most critical point of his Panthers tenure: The 2nd half of the 2nd season. Looking back here is how the other head coaches performed to this point and how their time here pivoted. Dom Capers First 26 Games: 13-13 2nd Half of 2nd Season: (1996) won final 7 games to win division, took Panthers to NFC Championship Game. Final Record/Accomplishments: 30-34; NFC West Division Title-1996 George Seifert First 26 Games: 12-14 2nd Half of 2nd Season: (2000) Finished 3-3 with mixed results in games; finished 1-15 the following season. Final Record/Accomplishments: 16-32; None. John Fox First 26 Games: 15-11 2nd Half of 2nd Season: (2003) corrected the season after a strong start and mid-year stumble to win division, Won NFC Championship Game. Final Record/Accomplishments: 73-71; (1) Conference Championship; (3) Playoff Appearances; (2) Division Titles. Ron Rivera First 26 Games: 8-18 2nd Half of 2nd Season: (2012) Won 5/6 remaining games; finished 12-4 following season and won division. Final Record/Accomplishments: 76-63-1; (1) Conference Championship; (4) Playoff Appearances; (3) Division Titles; (2) COY Awards Matt Rhule First 26 Games: 10-16 2nd Half of 2nd Season: (2021) Lost final 7 games in a row, terminated 5 games into following season. Final Record/Accomplishments: 11-27; None. Dave Canales First 26 Games: 10-16 2nd Half of 2nd Season: TBD Final Record/Accomplishments: TBD The writing was on the wall at the end of Rhule and Seifert’s 2nd season, while Capers, Fox, and Rivera all finished strong and rallied. To be fair, Capers 1997 and 1998 seasons weren’t great, but he was faced with adversity and still managed to leave with at least one successful season...thanks to the second half of his 2nd season.
    • There are always a few head scratcher calls a game on us.  That was bshit
    • Honestly unless the Packers WR in the end zone was disqualified from tackling, he was literally right behind him ready to tackle him at the 5 yard line. Probably better he dropped it field position wise unless people think Mike Jack has Ted Ginn speed or something.
