Might be losing an assistant (or two)

Not surprised at all that LSU is chasing some of the guys they lost last year because damn if they didn't look straight up dreadful this year. I'm also hoping that these openings might open the door for some folks with more NFL experience. I think the overall staff would benefit from it.

I wasn’t as impressed with Joe Brady’s offense as I thought I would be. If he and his assistant get new jobs I think that’s fine. Start fresh with a rookie QB and a more experienced offensive coordinator and position coach with a proven track record of developing QBs.

I was impressed early, then teams adjusted to Teddy's obvious weaknesses. It's tough to counter when you have such a limited talent at QB and you're also missing your most dynamic offensive weapon.

Basically I think Brady still has to prove it at the NFL level, but I'm still hopeful that he can.

I like the overall aggressiveness, but many of the 3rd down calls made me scratch my head.  Running Samuel up the middle yesterday on 3rd down is just one example off the top of my head.  I think Brady outsmarts himself sometimes trying to guess what the defense is expecting instead what OUR offense may execute the best.  It seems he's free to call his game on the early downs and gets caught up trying to play 4-D chess on the money down.

I’ll say scheming 4 different players to 1,000+ scrimmage yards is pretty impressive, especially with CMC out and with SEVERE limitations at QB.

I think you are right here.
He is young and hopefully can learn from his mistakes. Maybe some mentoring from Rhule and the older coaches can help develop Brady. After all, I think this was his first OC job.

I agree. If he's the OC next year, I'm not going to be calling for his head or anything. He has a ton of potential and still learning the ropes at the NFL level. But, I also wouldn't be upset if he moved on to greener pastures. Could work out to be a good move for both sides. 

I'm more concerned with Phil Snow at DC. Dude made some horrific playcalls this season and I was critical of his hiring from the get go. Panthers defense allowed the most first downs in franchise history and tons of 3rd and longs. Some of that can be chalked up to lack of talent but at some point you have to point the finger at the man in charge.

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
