So dude has NEVER been a full-blown OC at any level.

Rhule is figuratively handing drunk teenagers the car keys, lol.

Edit: Neither has Sean Ryan, but at least Ryan has experience coaching offense in the NFL since 2007.

Ok, the thread title is misleading.

The Panthers didn't say Nixon was the new OC, only that he was taking over for the final five games.  I don't think he's the right choice, but at least they haven't made him permanent.  They really need to go find someone from outside the org and they need to do it early so that person has the FULL offseason to put their system in place.

He’s the new OC for December/January. That better?

Well, as a fan, did you really want to see him hand it over to someone qualified to do the job?

It's better for it to be the same cast of characters so that we can hopefully get an entirely new cast of characters.

I think most are just shocked at how terrible Rhule actually is. Like Sean Ryan was kinda the shoe in.

To me that suggests that an outside candidate will be targeted for OC. If you wanted to promote Ryan this is as good a time as any.

This suggests that Rhule is way out of his depths. The reason why most owners balked at Rhule is because he wanted full control over staff. What that ment was he wanted a college coaching department.

      The Dowdle Mirage - Play Calling Problems

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Yea, I've never had high expectations since we drafted Bryce, so it's not like I'm just upset about not meeting them. I went into the season wanting to see player improvement and Canales' play design/calling improvement. I'm now to the point where I 99% only care about seeing individual player improvement.  The 1% is that I unfortunately have to still hope to see Canales play calling improvement, because that is kinda critical for the improvement of all our young offensive players. Offense is different from defense, you need good play designs and calls to show out.  On defense, everything can be a mess, but a great young player can still stand out and look great.  Our defense can be a mess but still have Horn locking down his guys on the outside, Scourton or Princely winning their pass rushing and pressuring the QB, DB swallowing up multiple blockers. But it's very hard for any QB, RB, WR, or TE to individually shine when the play design and calling is poo.

      Oh, I'm not 100% expecting/demanding anything for next season. All that I want to see out of this season is progress, but I also understand that progress is not linear. I also understand that we've got a young team and coaching staff that are both developing. Expecting a winning record isn't reasonable at all, but I'll cheer for one all the same. I think that this is where some of the more angsty fans keep themselves in a perpetual cycle of misery: high expectations leads to low resiliency. Folks can have high standards, and the Panthers + Bryce have not met those standards, but some of those standards are completely realistic (like Bryce has to be built like Cam in order to be successful).
