Blackburn is official

Seems like he would have been part of the announcement of the rest of the staff. Are they going to do these 1 at a time? I can see having a release for the head coach and 2 coordinators, but the rest?

EDIT: Actually, I did like that article. Gives good insight into the way things will be structured.

NFL teams allowed seven punt return touchdowns in 2019. Carolina allowed three of those. When one team allows more than 40% of the league's touchdowns, it probably needs to fix something.

Ehh 2 came in one game when the entire team gave up after Ron had been fired. Outside of that blip, Blackburn has been great and very consistent in all ST phases since he took over. Smart to keep him here, he’s a young and bright coaching mind.

This basically cements Hurney/Tepper as principles. 

How so?  Not judging just asking for your logic here.  Appears BBurn is a leftover assistant from the previous regime and he passed the interview.

Is there something in Rhules contract that stipulates we will give you a bazillion dollars, buyout the Baylor contract and blow up the coaching market for new NFL hires but you have to stick with BBurn on special teams?

The Panthers special teams under Rivera for the better part of a decade were either average to mediocre or just flat out abysmal. I'm good with Blackburn, but we definitely are past due for seeing some improvement of any kind in that area. Particularly with the return game. I don't imagine someone like Harbingers who is still making excuses for Rivera will have much to say about that though.

    • It depends on what version of bad we are getting. Can't have the locker room tearing apart over it.
    • I think that depends more on how high our pick is. If we have the 1st, 2nd or even 3rd pick i think we are drafting a QB rather than shopping FA market for a QB1. Curious if we’d be reluctant to start a rookie QB week 1 though. 
    • Hurney 2.0 and Fitts were so bad I don't know if it was intentional or they were that abysmally clueless. Fittershits panicked repeatedly being on the back end of positional runs while Hurney couldn't evaluate anyone outside of the 1st.  I can't figure out why Plummer still has a jersey. There's no reason. Dalton brings nothing to the table. If another QB gets cut that has given a glimmer of anything better than what we have, we should look, and that goes for every position.  I cant get over how much different this team could have been with a competent GM and having accepted the Rams offer for Burns. This franchise could have gone in a totally different direction.
