Meet new OC Jeff Nixon (puke)

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.

    • I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.  
    • The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
