From The Athletic...

A number of players have called on Tepper to hire Wilks for the full-time position, none more loudly than linebacker Shaq Thompson. Tepper has said Wilks would be considered if he did “an incredible job” during his 12-game audition.

Wilks’ commitment to the run game was the right move given the quarterback situation — P.J. Walker (five games), Sam Darnold (three) and Baker Mayfield (one) all have started under Wilks. But whomever Tepper hires — be it Wilks or someone else — will need a quarterback and a more innovative offense.

After swinging and missing with a college coach three years ago, Tepper is expected to target someone with NFL experience. A league source who spoke on the condition of anonymity for competitive reasons said Tepper has interest in Sean Payton, but the former Saints coach told Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer he isn’t interested in Carolina. Other former head coaches who could draw interest include Frank Reich and Dan Quinn, who was with GM Scott Fitterer in Seattle.

The list of coordinators expected to emerge as candidates in this hiring cycle is a long one, but includes Philadelphia offensive coordinator Shane Steichen, San Francisco defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans, Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore and Seahawks offensive coordinator Shane Waldron.

Wilks can help his cause with a strong finish. The Panthers’ path to the playoffs is simple: If they win out — against Detroit, Tampa Bay and New Orleans — they’ll clinch the division and host a playoff game even as they bear a losing record.

After five losing seasons, David Tepper must get the coach and QB right

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By jb2288 · Posted

      agree to disagree you are entitled to that opinion even though I find the argument completely bizarre based on data. I could type out a long paragraph discussing those areas but what’s the point. I posted a screenshot that showed Bryce in a similar post snap situation with a free rusher in his face which resulted in a TD - that’s what happened on the play so I posted it.

      I've already addressed this notion in a previous reply. You are basing your assertion outside reality if you think Bryce would have not only been more successful but defeated the Patriots in place of Herbert. Bryce got blown off the field by that Patriots team with the highest paid OL in the league. We've seen Bryce with an OL that gave up 65 sacks and it resulted in the #1 pick. And that is not a defense of Herbert or arguing he is a great QB in any way. He has physical talent but he has been similar to Darnold early in his career in terms of his very up and down perfomances. However that does not change the fact that they have significantly less invested in the OL than the Panthers.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      I think Tepper has been setting the stage where pending there is no miracle he wipes it all clean.  Think you already have been told that with small things like Evero staying.  Bryce is the guy next year.  OC, DC, everything stays the same.  QB room largely the same.  Nothing would really matter there.  They basically get one more shot and it goes how the schedule paired with our 27th ranked O predictably most likely goes.  Everyone out the door together.  Bryce is a bridge tier QB.  I don’t see Dave surviving where he could be bridge QB here in reality.
