Ron’s made a lot of money. He’ll retire.

That's a genuine possibility.

It's also true though that a lot of former head coaches like to step back and take lesser, low pressure jobs in the latter part of their careers.

I could see Rivera doing that as well, especially to help out an old friend.

And heaven knows he enjoyed living in Charlotte.

(the city actually liked him and Mrs Riv pretty well too)

It just seems like there's quite a few...umm...relics on that list.

Got curious and decided to look it up...

Kitchens - 47

Chudzinski - 54

Scott Turner - 40

Cam Turner - 35

Zampese - 55

Wilson - 61

Nixon - 47

Proehl - 54

Henry - 50

Campen - 58

Kugler - couldn't find it but he ain't 65

Holcomb - 51

Mills III - 44

Rivera - 60

Pagano - 55

Walker - 61

Dishman - 57

Tabor - 51

For the record, Pasqualoni is 73.

The only other guy who'd be in that range is pass rush specialist Don Johnson. Couldn't find his age but he's been coaching since 1977.

I didn't think of it till too late but there's another name I probably should have included among the potential secondary coaches.

Former Panthers safety Mike Mitchell is currently an assistant Defensive Backs Coach with the Colts.

Lol...this may not be a popular opinion but Mitchell is most definitely in my top 5 all time.. Panther SS. I watched a lot offensive players develop alligator arms in his short stint here. Penalty machine but a true tone setter. 

Idunno how he'd convert as a coach but I could easily imagine the tempo he'd use lol. 

Side note: The staff listed in the OP is actually realistic imo and also lightyears ahead of what our former head coach put together. It only gets worse when you realize he probably had almost every resource avialable at his disposal...smdh.. All we need is competence at this point. + "just an average" QB and OC and we're 3-1 at the worse.

I would like to see an OC that has had his moments as a head coach and realizes his forte is OC and not HC.  This would hopefully keep him from moving on.  I know many like to think they are HC material but maybe we could find one who won't move on after one or two good seasons.

That's potentially Kitchens or Chudzinski.

      Jaycee LOCKDOWN Horn is due for a breakout year

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.

      I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
