So as a general question, what type of coach would you prefer? A Defensive minded coach ala John Fox, or a Mike Martz type Offensive minded coach? Or if there is one out there, a Hybrid of the two? And if it's a coach who's familiar with both sides of the ball, who would they be? Also, would you prefer a coach who has experience like a Mike Holmgren, or a cooridinator out there waiting in the wings?

My hope is we find one who is competent on both sides of the ball. It just to me feels like Coach Fox will make moves in a flat minute like last week to sign Tank Tyler to shore up the D, but how long have we been waiting on that #2 receiver? Not saying he doesn't care about the Offensive side, but he makes moves quicker on the Devensive side. It also seems that for whatever reason under Fox besides the Superbowl year we never have both sides of the ball clicking consistently. I hope we get a guy who isnt just a Defense or Offense guy. And i agree about the older guy, i would hope we could get a guy thats gonna give us more than 2-3 years.

WOW Squirrel, you want Gruden, tell us what you think he would bring to the table?

A superbowl ring and before any one says it was Tony Dungy's team. Who's team did they play against? That right Grudens team he built. Gruden screwed up in TB. But I bet if he came to the Panthers we would win the Superbowl in less than 3 years and in 7 have 2 SB rings.

      BREAKING!!! Panthers signing Packers LT Rasheed Walker

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Panthers sign OT Rasheed Walker Terms: One year, up to $10 million Grade: A The price of this deal might be the most shocking of free agency thus far. Walker was widely considered the best free agent tackle this year and was expected to receive a large contract. But his market developed very slowly, so he has signed a one-year deal with a maximum value of $10 million -- meaning the base value is below that -- per NFL Network. For context, my free agency contract model projected a deal averaging $21.8 million for Walker. Instead, it's a short-term commitment for less than half that. And the Panthers are the beneficiaries. Carolina entered this offseason with a possible need at left tackle after Ikem Ekwonu suffered a patellar tendon rupture in the playoffs that put his 2026 season in question. It's also the last year of his contract. The Panthers signed Stone Forsythe as an insurance plan already in free agency, but once Walker's market fell it seemed like they felt adding him was well worth it, too. Our win rate metrics consider Walker to be a solid player. Last season in Green Bay, he was in the 85th percentile among tackles in pass block win rate, though only 22nd percentile in run block win rate. He was in the 69th percentile and 48th percentile in those two metrics in 2024, respectively. Given that Dan Moore Jr. received $20.5 million per year from the Titans last year most -- myself included -- thought Walker would walk away with more than that. Perhaps the struggles of Moore (who wasn't great last season) contributed to Walker's market being cooler than expected, a theory that ESPN's Jeremy Fowler suggested. Walker was also arrested two months ago at LaGuardia Airport in New York for allegedly trying to check-in with a firearm that he had a license for in Wisconsin but not New York. Either way, teams felt differently about Walker than most on the outside thought. But he's a heck of an add for the Panthers at this price. While his run-game contributions might be far from perfect, a weak pass protector at tackle can sink a passing game. Even if this is only a one-year arrangement, Walker should be able to help keep Bryce Young upright

      Fantastic signing. If he is good, this will make next offseason really interesting. I would imagine that Morgan would try to extend Walker and convince Ikey to move to the right side to replace Moton. This also opens up options at 19 at lot instead of forcing a tackle. I'm not a fan, but I'm definitely more open to Morgen drafting Sadiq now, but there is also Peter Woods, and even some like Dillon Thieneman is now in the mix. Hell, I'm still for another off ball LB.

      sure, but Panthers are theoretically in their win now window. Their first rounder needs to be a day one starter
