Panthers conducting 2nd interview with Jay Gruden today

[Shocker]

This is best name I have heard so far…if it happens I am ok with the hire

Gotta wonder if he is a better head coaching candidate than what we have

This hire would maybe at least inspire a tad bit of confidence. Maybe.

At least there’s a semblance of competency here

Gruden will only take the job if there's a chance he'd be head coach by mid-season. 

But it also shows how far he's fallen since his head coaching gig. He wasn't the guy his brother is, for both the good and the bad.

 

There is a huge chance Rhule gets fired before the season is over.

He's the best out of the lot they interviewed so far. At least he has called plays in the NFL and been to the playoffs multiple seasons.

So in a league where teams are moving to less verbiage in their playcalling so they can move faster and the QB can concentrate on what he has to do rather than spitting the playcall out...we are thinking about going with a guy who runs a system with the longest playcall verbiage.

And for a team that is looking for its next QB and might end up with a guy who's green...we are going to give him an OC with needlessly wordy playcalls.  And as we are looking at college kids, we have to take into account many of them have never even had a playbook before and they didn't run a ton of plays.  But we have an OC who "narrows down" the weekly gameplan to "only" 150 plays to focus on.

Wishful thinking my friend.  Wishful thinking 

to be sadly honest, if he should win plus two game next year, he will be back 

that ‘bromance’ of the sweaty, short order fry cooks continues

I’ve heard Jay’s a bad HC, not OC. Honestly this is going to be as good as it gets. He has experience in the league as a coordinator and coach. We could do worse. 

[WOW!!]

Checks the Rhule "stated" boxes.. Wouldn't be mad at this..

Or Tim Kelly

Or Macdoo..

All Atleast have NFL OC playcalling and game planning in their resume..

only thing I wonder is did he intentionally take a year off after the disaster that was the 2020 Jaguars or is there just not a lot of interest in him

So 3 wildcard losses with the Bengals/Andy Dalton. One wildcard loss with Cousins in DC. Wonder if he'll try to get Cousins down here

[WOW!!]

I also think Jay comes with Doug Marrone who is a hell of A Oline coach..

And wasn't he OC to Minshew his rookie year??

Then it would be unprecedented. While there have been coaches that have survived 2 really bad years. The 3rd year being bad almost always results in a coaches firing. 
If Rhule doesn’t make the playoffs next season, he won’t, and he isn’t fired the Panthers will be reaching Browns levels of ineptitude. 
Maybe Rhule gets a 4th or 5th year. But I doubt it since bad coaches never survive 3 bad years.
