New Panthers defensive coordinator Phil Snow plans to call plays from the field: ‘'I love being on the field. I get a better feel for the game on the field and I get a great view of the player eye to eye.''

Panthers defensive coordinator Phil Snow has been in Charlotte five months and he hasn't met 97 percent of the team because of the coronavirus. He also hasn't bought a house. “This will be my 44th year in coaching and there's [been] nothing like it,'' he said.

I know coaches in high school that did that, but it is much easier to see the field when your eyes are in the sky.   Not a fan of this approach.

Apparently, Snow doesn't follow the same belief as his boss that you don't name starters before the season begins.

Sounds to me like he's just stating Whitehead's general position since he's spent a lot of time on the outside as well, not that he's the starter.

Or that he'll get first stab at the starting job in camp. Certainly doesn't guarantee a starting spot on opening day.

True, but looking at our LBs, Whitehead is a starter.  So Starter + MLB should = Starting MLB.  We dont have enough depth at LB for Whitehead to sit on the bench

Not unreasonable speculation, sure, but my point is that Snow did not specifically name him a starter at MLB in that quote.

Much easier to coach from the sidelines. He will have people in the box for eye in the sky. This year will require more hand on approach anyway because of coronavirus.
