Everyone saying Luke for DC, but what about OC?

He literally knew the opponents offense better than the they did. 
 

It seems silly, but has anyone studied offense like he did during his playing days?

 

I just want this man coaching for us no matter what he’s coaching. 

I actually was thinking the same thing... if he could read offenses as well as he could... what about defenses? Wouldnt be the first defensive player to be an OC

He was already the DC here for 8 years. It will be great to have him back to coordinate from the booth. 

He's the closest I've seen on the defensive side of the ball to player-coach. Seriously. Peyton was also essentially a player-coach. Brady is trying to be now that he's not under authoritarian coaches in Belichick/Arians; it ain't going so well for him...

Start him as an assistant or Lb coach. He does well there then DC is a possibility. Playing and coaching are two totally different things. All thought Luke is smart and a leader so it could work. 

This. Either LB Coach, or something like Pass Defense Coordinator. I don't have any doubt that he'd thrive in the role. And let him work his way up the chain. A lunch-pail guy like Luke would want to earn the job anyway.

Not necessarily. Great players don’t really make great coaches. Most of the good coaches were guys with enough talent to get them to the pros and ride the bench or a D2 scholarship athlete. 

Art Shell and Mike Ditka would like to have a word out back.

He said in an interview last year that he would love to be an OC.

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By panthers55 · Posted

      Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.

      D. Morgan on T-Mac: “I made the decision pretty early [January]

      The Rams wanted to trade up for Williams who they ended up within the end. They even told him that when they called him to let him know he is the pick. The other teams are only an assumption. Like the Cowboys, who took a guard. The truth is the team wanted to trade down first and foremost but couldn't get an offer the were happy with. They took McMillan because they felt he was bpa at 8 plain and simple.
