The problem I see with Reich is this:

The lesson of the Pittsburgh Steelers as the franchise with the most Lombardis is that head coach longevity is rarely done in the NFL, but is probably a good idea if your HC is at least competent. 

Given his age, it seems unlikely Reich would reach the kind of tenure that Steelers HC's have enjoyed.

I would prefer someone younger. 

The problem i see with Reich is he got outcoached by a guy with only highschool experience.

Fug it. Just go with Scott Turner. He's lived NFL football his entire life. He has connections, so he'll have good input on putting a staff together. He's probably chomping at the bit to get a HC gig. 

 

And he has Panther roots. Which you guys seem to want. So he has that going for him as well.

 

You guys want an Up-and-Comer. Well, there he is. It's a no brainer.

Gotta gamble sometimes every head coach was given their first shot somewhere. 

Yeah I have heard that before when we hired all the other guys that we gave a first chance to. I want a proven commodity with head coaching experience.  If we don't have that, then go with Wilkes who has already changed the culture and hopefully keeps winning. Plus he has head coach experience and has literally taken the same team with less talent than Rhule had to start with, and is making them believe in themselves and showing what being a Panther is all about. The history and pride in this franchise.  Something a new guy can't replicate outside of  guys like Reich, Turner and Dorsey who have been here before.

We need to redefine what being a Panther is. That’s where we need to take a different approach with a young innovative offensive coach

    • I assume you are quoting my still. If so, I don't know what your argument is since mine was simply showing a play where Bryce scored a TD against the Rams in the playoffs where another poster used a similar still of Herbert's line to defend his poor performance last night. Like I said, Herbert is a better QB but Bryce wins the game last night for the Chargers. It simply is something he does better than Herbert and would play to his strengths. Someone even said earlier Chargers only win 1 or 2 games this year if Bryce was their QB which is so absurdly laughable it wasn't even worth trying to address. I mean this thread is literally called "Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panther's History" so I understand there is no objective arguments to be had here but I found that amusing. 
    • I think his knee would make a good reason to switch to guard IF he returns.  Half don't.  Half of those don't last too long.  The strain on a knee (320lb man) vs speed rushers is more substantial.  So I would keep him if I could on a small contract (he will make $17.5 in 2026 fully guaranteed) and think of him as a possible guard for the post Lewis/Hunt era.  Knee injuries in big men are not invitations to invest in them.  
    • I'd give anything to go back to a 4-3 but we are so removed from having the pieces for that. All because Tepper wanted to force this 3-4 on all our coaches.
