What would be intriguing is drafting a qb in the first and then signing Brady.  Let the kid pick Brady's brain for a year, along with Matt Corral.

The problem with that is Brady has never mentored or even given much advice to his younger backups.  It's like he saw them as competition and was no help whatsoever.  His relationship with Garappolo was always pretty aloof.

I doubt that would change, and may be worse now that he is a shell of his former self.

So, the idea of signing a vet to nurse the young guys along is great.  He's just not the guy to do it.  It would be great if he was, but he won't.

All this worry that Wilks will get the job is pointless.  Tepper is going to Tepper so you just gotta roll with it. If Wilks is the next coach then so be it. I will hope like hell he's the guy or we'll be looking again in a couple of years. 

It is what it is.

I've begun approaching the Panthers decisions the same way I approach things at work.  They are going to do what they do, and there is little I can do about it other than chime in and say "don't."

At work, it is almost a sure bet that whatever "it" is, they will eff the decision up.  I would not classify Tepper/the Panthers as a sure bet, but it is a pretty good bet.

Much like RR, I like Wilks the man. I think he would be a great DC, but too reminiscent of Rivera/Fox as a HC. That style of play is a lot harder to equate to success in the current NFL. 

I too had hopes for Wilks if he went on a run and showed that he learned from his AZ days. One game does not make/break him, but losing to PIT was not a good look. If he can run the tables and get us into the post-season, I think he gets the job. If not, on to the next shiny toy. 

Johnson, Steichen, Reich make the most sense.

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
