I still say Wilks is the best candidate. With a full offseason, I think he could do enough to change this team's culture that we'd be in real playoff contention as early as next season. 

Why all the Johnson love? He's got one season of play-calling experience, and even that play-calling couldn't score many points against the Panthers. 

I agree. My only knock against Wilks was the Bucs game. Changes should've been made on Evans coverage. Yes we were down our top two corners but we never made adjustments to cover him. This can't bleed into next year.

Wilks would be rock bottom fold the franchise up and move it to the UK or St. Louis type of hire.

I wouldnt mind Frank Reich. He is a solid coach who has proven he could win before.

But the move is to hire Ben Johnson, Shane Steichen, or Ken Dorsey. Johnson is my number one choice, but would be happy with the other two. It takes a special talent to make Jared Goff to look like a starting NFL QB.

I have zero interest in Kafka, Mayo, or Moore.

I do like Ryans, but watching Saleh first hand scares me off. This is an offensive league and if you are going to take a chance with a first time head coach, i think it should be someone with an offense background.

Gonna throw a name out there--and you all are going to overreact then I will respond and make you feel silly--maybe change your user profile (again, in some cases)--are you ready?:

David Shaw

Already interviewed by Broncos.  Not your typical college coach--has NFL experience.  Knows player personnel better than some GMs.  Offensive guru, great with QBs.

Pro or con, I don't see Tepper going with another college coach.

I don't either (but the question was "who do you want in Carolina?")  because if it goes wrong, he would be tarred and feathered.  I think Shaw will be a good NFL coach.  I think he made Harbaugh look good (along with Luck) at Stanford.  He knows Xs and Os, he knows offense, and he knows personnel. 
I met him on Stanford's campus when I was there for a conference--I was walking with a group of professors by the athletic facility to the SCALE center, and the team was loading the bus to go to the airport--game at Colorado.  He (not an assistant, not a manager) was monitoring the process.  So introduced myself and started talking to him.  Nothing but class.   I would hire the man and forget his former gig--but that is just me.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
