Luke wants to keep working with the Panthers...Brady/Kuechly coordinators?

Is it possible we'll have two coordinators younger than 31 next year? Is it common for retiring players to immediately become coordinators or will they need to become interns or position coaches first? I feel like if Kuechly did that though, whoever we get as defensive coordinator will have to know Kuechly will replace them in a year or two, so I don't know how well that will work out.

I think even with a football IQ of Kuechly's unprecedented level, it's probably advisable for him to work his way up the ranks a bit rather than just immediately from player to cordinator. I'm thinking specifically of how Mike Singletary, despite being an all time great, flamed out as a head coach when he was promoted prematurely into a job he didn't have the proper preparation for.

Start Luke at LB coach and let him grow into coaching, if that's the path he chooses. Personally if I were him I'd take a few years off and enjoy being young and rich. I'm not into fishing at all, but that seems to be something he loves. There's a ton of fish out there, and once you start coaching, it's a huge time sink.

I don't think he goes that route. Monotone voice, kind of a boring dude. Absolutely no knock on him, but he doesn't have the right personality for TV.

He has looks and knowledge and is well spoken. He'll probably never be a color guy, you're right about that much, but I think if he wanted to he could be a good analysis guy with some training. I think long term coaching is more likely though.

luke can't even be interesting on a commercial. he'd bomb at tv. i'm sure he knows it.

he could be a GOAT football coach. I imagine he'd have to take an assistant position somewhere before taking over as a LB coach and work his way up from there. he will have plenty of options.

      Dave Canales says Jalen Coker is our tentative #2 next season

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      It will be really interesting to see how both sides handle this. I'm sure the team would love to get him signed to a 4 year deal based on his output so far and some potential factored in, i.e. something like a 4 year $30 million contract.  But I could see his agent telling him the best path is to take the one year offer, put up a big year next year and then really cash in. The team also has to keep in mind T-Mac's 2nd contract, which likely will happen after the 2027 season assuming he keeps improving as expected.  Even if we could get him on a budget 4 year deal for what he could become, the problem then becomes when he wants to re-negotiate in 2 years during the same summer we will extend T-Mac, and you don't want to spend that much on WRs in one offseason, just see the Bengals this last year. Taking everything into consideration, I'm thinking the 1 year deal and then getting him to sign a 4-5 year deal after hopefully say a 800ish yard season next year might be best for our cap situation and separate his and T-Mac's negotiation periods.

      And yet jax made it no further than we did, and its very possible the Pats don't either. I think it speaks more to the overall down year for the nfl as far as having great/dominant teams, every team this year has fatal flaws that can be exploited
