His history with this franchise is not done.  I think he'll end up in the ring of honor one day

Imo the only thing that would suggest he should is coaching the team to a Super Bowl. If that criteria gets Ron in, it should also get John Fox in as well, and not to insult either man, but I really don't want our team's Ring of Honor to include two coaches whose records were mediocre overall but managed to come up just short in the big game as their highest acheivement.

This maybe a dick thing to say but a lot of people in the media are acting like we just fired bill belicheck. I totally get Ron is a great dude and all that but he is literally the definition of mediocre. It’s very odd to me. Maybe a weird place to post this but I really figured Ron would just say a couple things to some reporters and be on his way. Presser is a little much tbh.

I'm not tracking media reaction, do you mean local media, national, or both? Just curious.

National media I just watched on NFL network. People are acting SHOCKED. Keep saying how highly respected this two time coach of the year is and how quickly he will get a job and why we couldn’t wait until the end of the season to fire such a decorated coach.
 

6-10

7-9

12-4

7-8-1

15-1 With one of the greatest single season qb performances in nfl history

6-10

11-5

7-9

5-7 with two of the worst losses in franchise history to seal his fate. 

I just don’t get it.

Despite my issues with his on-field decisions, again, I appreciate and respect him as a man.  I'm pretty sure I might have some dust kicking up in the room watching it.  There was a few good times, but there were a whole lot more frustrating ones.  Regardless, classy gesture by Tepper and Ron.

I'm inclined to chalk it up to the way the national media tends to ignore us. They don't pay attention to what's going on here ESPECIALLY when Cam is not playing, so to them this is out of left field, wheras anyone actually following the team is somewhat less shocked.

I think a lot of people are conflating who he is with how he coached.  I don't.  I think he is an outstanding human being, a great example to others, a leader, etc.  But, he has not been a great coach.  I had several teachers and mentors in life that I looked up to and appreciated, but that doesn't mean they would make great strategists or coaches.

      Known Prospect Meetings with Panthers

      Taking only players from the sheet that are realistically available in or after the listed round, I’d like… 1st: DT Caleb Banks (Styles not realistic) 2nd: LB Jacob Rodriguez 3rd: OT Best available from Bowry, Barber, and Casey 4th: CB Daylen Everette 5th: S Jalen Huskey 6th: RB Adam Randall 7th: IOL Best available from Lemieux, Dawkins, Leausa, and Brose   I know nothing about some of the players listed, but it seems like that would be the best way it could fall for now. I’m sure the list of who we meet will change a ton, and there will also be players we don’t meet with to keep quiet. I’d love to pick up Randall in the late rounds.

      Tight End: The Need is Bigger than We Think

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Not what I said. They know within the building why we aren't utilizing TEs more. If the rumors were true that we were seriously pursuing a couple of decent receiving TEs that strongly points toward a lack of quality receiving TEs currently on the roster. Does that mean we consider drafting one at 19? I don't know, but it wouldn't shock me and if we did there's only one guy it would be. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see TE drafting somewhere in the first three rounds.

      Yeah, I don’t know. Tepper was behind the Bryce selection. Behind firings and hiring over his lack of development.  He doesn’t have to literally tell them their hands are tied for them to know this. It is in the air constantly. The Canales Bryce play calling was even portrayed by more than one person as Canales failing Bryce, instead of Bryce being responsible for his own performance (except when he does well, then it is all him). Now they have an extra coach in, to help the new OC get results from this QB.  The atmosphere is not welcoming to prototypical young QBs that have talent. You get Jake Plummer types or old vets. I think we are stuck.
