Why? He's a good coach and as far as I know a good man. If you haven't noticed there's a shortage of those right now. 

I certainly appreciate your take on BA as a person, and coach for that matter.  But he was in our division, and any thing that unsettles a division opponent is ok.

He seems like a pretty good dude, but as a coach, he's the guy that couldn't get it done until the GOAT QB fell in his lap. He's also the only coach that got outcoached by Ron Rivera in the playoffs. Also, fug the Bucs.

Bruce Arians has always been a champion of minority coaches. Skip Bayless is a whole bitch for implying it was Arians vs. Brady. I hate that he helped Tampa win a SB, but he seems like a legitimately good dude, and giving Todd Bowles a shot in this way is pretty damn cool when you look at the nonsense other minority coaching candidates are up against.

I agree with this. 

I don't think he was as good a coach as he was given credit for.  He almost refused to adjust his offensive game plan when the run was working or his philosophy was not.

His offensive philosophy produced results, but there was a definite ceiling to those.  Had Brady and probably a few other pieces not essentially been able to win whether he was on the sidelines or not, the Bucs would not have gotten over that ceiling.

I get that. I was probably that way at one point in my life. As I grew older I learned that the strong competition you face is what makes or breaks you.  What glory is there in beating up on a weakling? 

I just think the game is better when there is more great coaches and great teams.

My old ass opinion anyway.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?

      I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
