Don’t know if anyone has listened to the newest episode of The Roar with Ellis but, and it was just speculation but Ellis doesn’t really talk to talk, that Kafka doesn't want to come here. 
I get this feeling whoever we end up as our HC a lot of people are not gonna be happy. 

is this the new episode that came out today?

Yeah. Ellis said he didn’t get the impression Kafka was really interested in the job. Sounds like they both were also down on Ken Dorsey. 
I had to stop while they were talking about them so I haven’t heard the end of it.

I think you are referring to Johnson.  They walked up to the line of saying people got in his ear but never said it outright.  They just laid out the situation, and hearing like that I tend to believe them.   After hearing that podcast I would lean into reich getting the job based on being a offensive guy.  Something is clearly going on within the league in regards to our ownership/front office

Reich just feels like an offensive Rivera. That would be such a “blah” hiring. 
I believe that if Reich or Wilks get hiring it will be 3 year contract with expectation to win immediately. 
I don’t expect either coach to stick around long unless the have tremendous success.

Look at the situation from their side. 

You can’t succeed without a QB.

Anyone who takes this job will live or die by the QB they pick this spring.

The chance for success is low and Tepper’s expectations are high.

Almost no new head coach walks in with an established QB. It's super rare. If they are looking for the unicorn situation, they will be looking a long time.

I think its more of the totality then simply the qb position.  What is there to sale a new coach on here and do you trust fitt and tepper to help build the thing you want to.  Probably not after looking at the results so far

Exactly. Just like Payton said on the Herd back when we canned Rhule and they started trying to link him here.

And that’s exactly what Sean Payton said on Cowherds show a while back. When coaches are fired 99% of the time the team is a wreck or close to it. He used the term “unicorn” when McCarthy got fired and Rodgers was there for Lefleur. He spoke highly of our team though. Again, I still don’t think we get him, but it won’t be bc we don’t have a qb.

What exactly makes our franchise the most dysfunctional in the league? 
 

Or do Panther fans just enjoy crapping on the team repeatedly?

nobody said it was the most dysfunctional in the league but you cannot with a straight face argue that we are hitting on all cylinders right now

      Alejandro Avila: Are We Really About To Hand Offensive Rookie Of The Year To An 'Okay' Receiver?

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Adam Thielen had 1000 yards with rookie Bryce. I guess he's using that as comparison. Just kidding. Calm down.

      We definitely improved from 2024 to 2025, to me the results were less important than the roster in that regard. It's better. It's still a very bad roster but continuing to be better is the goal. The changes we are talking about at QB are about spending LESS resources. Not picking up Bryce's 5th is a big potential savings. Significantly better QB's have been had in recent years for half or less than what Bryce will get in 2026. To say nothing of an extension(the ridiculous subject of this thread) which would cripple roster building by saddling it with a bloated QB contract for an awful QB. The price for Bryce, I mean who is even making that argument anymore? I don't think you are seeing anyone in this thread discussing trading up to #1 for Mendoza.  We are talking about cheap backup and FA QB's and Day 2 and 3 draft guys. That is literally tied to the idea of roster building. IMPROVE at QB while you build the roster so that we can actually potentially attract a franchise QB or when you make that big move up(SF for Lance) that your roster is so good that the impact is largely negated.  After all, improving over Bryce is an extremely low bar to hit. Let's not assume that standing pat would have resulted in a sudden spurge in good decision making. Don't forget who was making all those roster calls at the time. Bryce or not, we would have fuged it up in some way because we had idiots at the helm. We may still yet. Also, it's easy to say we can't get in the habit of switching QB's like that but there are also plenty of situations where that flip was the correct decision. Richardson to Jones, Rosen to Murray, Fields to Williams, Lance to Purdy(technically some nuance to this), etc. There is no real danger of Bryce leaving and suddenly becoming an elite QB. We all do know this, no matter how big of a Bryce stan you may be. His ceiling is middling game manager. So there isn't some crazy risk of moving on.

      Honestly. You can see it on the field. Bryce will literally skip a pass on the ground rather than throw a contested catch to XL. Especially when it's one where XL would have to fight back to the ball. Coker is actually really good at that. Coker lacks real NFL speed (not a small thing), but he maxes out in most other categories.
