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

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      By frankw · Posted

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
