DJ Moore, Robby, CMC as weapons. Hubbard, TMJ, Tremble with potential. 

Burns, Chinn, Horn, Shaq with potential contributors in YGM, Taylor, CJ, Brown, Roy and Nixon. 

Potentially able to retain Gilmore, DJax, Reddick. 

Not to mention an abundance of future cap space and a top 10 pick to secure your QB if so desired. Factor in a small market with a bar previously set so low that .500 is an accomplishment and a relatively passive media presence compared to other markets and THEN you factor in an owner who will throw 10 mil a year and total control and you have a very desirable opportunity. 

Somebody will take this job and there people who will be banging down the doors to get it. Theres only 32 of them in the world.

I'm a very big fan of Nathaniel Hackett.

I usually look forward to some up and coming coordinator that can turn things around. There are no current coordinators that excite me, none. We need NFL HC experience. I’m with you, I’m not a fan of retreads, due to tape. However, Harbaugh is top of my list, then Pederson or Kubiak. I think if we hire anyone else, we are looking at 3-4 years before that coordinator gets enough experience to be a HC. Rhule, obviously could not learn on the job. Hell I would even be excited about Wade Phillips before any current coordinator.

He has Aaron Rodgers. It is hard to know how good he is in situational football when 12 is making the calls. I’m not saying he wouldn’t make a great HC, but we do not have a Rodgers. His other OC stops were ok, but nothing exciting. On the plus side, he could go dancing with the Top Cats after a score, that would be entertaining.

Look back at his history before Rodgers.

He made the Jags the #5 offense in the NFL with Blake Bortles.

So there's that.

      Panthers will play starters in first 2 preseason games

      By Captain Morgan · Posted

      CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Carolina Panthers coach Dave Canales said Friday that starters will play in the first two preseason games, stopping just short of admitting he made a mistake last season holding them out. The plan includes playing quarterback Bryce Young, who got off to a historically bad start to the 2024 regular season that got him benched after opening 0-2. Carolina opens their preseason schedule Friday at home against Cleveland, followed by an August 15 road game at Houston and August 21 home game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.   Canales said he will evaluate after the first two games whether starters will play in the third game. "Kind of going through it last year, we had a mix of veteran players, but [this is] predominantly a pretty young team,'' said Canales, who has at least six new starters to the defense that was the worst in the league a year ago. "I just can't pass up the opportunities. The reps in games are valuable. "[But] it goes to the night before, when guys know they're going to go out there, they've got to make a decision to play football. So it starts the night before with the prep. You start thinking about your plan, taking care of your body, making sure you get your rest.''   https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45880676/panthers-starters-play-first-2-preseason-games-says-coach

      Micah officially requests a trade

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      You call the Cowboys purely for information, but we don't have the assets to pull off any realistic trade. Also, even if they would consider any trade, it's more likely they want to do it with an AFC team.
