Dude we haven’t had our interview with Ben Johnson yet. Our first meeting with him next week. You are making up the second interview piece. You are doin way more than reading between the lines… you are making theories up in your head and believing they are true.

Stand corrected on that point. Let’s remember this conversation when he’s announced as our head coach in a week or so.

That doesn’t make your statement right… haha. If Ben Johnson is the best candidate and crushes his interview … you can’t say “this is because tepper was short sighted” bc ironically that is short sighted in itself.

See the tweet from back in December? Sounds like Tepper has already said who he wanted. Now it’s just a matter of finalizing it. Hopefully the hot name works out this time.

TB had a losing record and Seattle and detroit finished 9-8, and we split with TB and our coaching staff was totally exposed the second time we played them.  Those teams werent exactly regular season juggernauts.

For  Christ sake

  my post was in regards to saying’ they didn’t beat anybody ‘

they beat two teams in the playoffs 

Again, if you don’t want to like Wilks, then don’t,  but take away from  the fact that his team beat three  very good teams, two in the playoffs and a third that would have been if the Panthers didnt beat them 

Just a reminder that ‘Detroit was the hottest team In the league’ and the overwhelming favorite when the panthers beat them 

you know the team that has the IC thaa as t mist want for HC

saving most of their candidates for in-person sessions once those are allowed starting Tuesday. Ben Johnson, whose name is hot in this cycle, is among those expected to travel to meet with owner David Tepper and is set for an in-person interview on Jan. 18

I get what you are saying... but Seahawks and Bucs definitely aren't "very good". Seahawks regressed hard in the second half of the season and barely got by the Rams last week, and Bucs suck.  The lore of Tom Brady is the only reason people think they have a chance (and I will admit... it is a good reason, Brady is the GOAT).

But LIS, I get what you are saying and I agree.  We can't take those wins away from Wilks.

it's a tweet from a guy who asked Tepper what he thought about Ben Johnson and shared that we have done our homework on the guy... There are tweets circulating that Tepper wants Demceo Ryans as well. Im sure we did our homework on him too.  You are looking way too hard into this. 

I want Ben Johnson and I hope we hire him. However, I have no reason to believe we have already chosen him as HC. All the other candidates would be declining interviews with us because they would know we have already chosen, and we wouldnt waste our time. 

The way you are trying to portray this just isnt how this process works. we have seen teams in the past who already knew their HC they were going to hire respect the Rooney rule then just interview that single person. We arent doing that, bc we havent chosen our HC yet.

Thanks

those teams are in the playoffs. To say they regressed or didn’t or the sun rose or set makes no difference, they are playoff teams

He asked "how is the search going?" He didn't ask about Johnson, Tepper himself volunteered that information. You are being naive here. Tepper is about as simple minded as they come. He probably decided he wanted Johnson two months ago beacuse he's attracted to shiny objects. Again, nothing against the guy and I hope he does great but I just see a lot of parallels to the "process" we went through with Rhule and we all know how that worked out.

Tepper has zero good  judgement when it comes to this football team. I have zero faith in anyone that is his choice. He really needs to let the professionals make the decision.

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

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
