give me Ben Johnson.  That's the type guy we should of gone after when we let Ron go. 

*requirement is he hires a DC that was former HC or something along those lines.  I want my green HC to have someone on staff that has been through it all.

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 think Wilks could get us in playoff contention. His DNA is too conservative to really put you in contention of being anything special though. 

Goff still put up nearly 400 yards and 3 passing TDs on us.  Their run game just didn't show up at all.

Steichen for me, I like Johnson but I would prefer to see him do it a little longer and I dont really love the systems he came up in but I cant deny he did a wonderful job.

Rather have the guy with the track record with helping Develop two of the best QBs in the league.

I'd be happy with Johnson or Steichen, but for some reason, I'm leaning towards Johnson. Maybe UNC is the tiebreaker for me lol.

I do think if it's Johnson I would prefer he get a former HC as his DC. Someone like Vance Joseph (coached with him in Miami). Nugget here, but in 2021, Dom Capers was a Senior Defensive Assistant/Consultant for the Lions, that could be a good potential DC/AHC hire that has a connection to Johnson. Otherwise, there are former HCs that could be available for DC roles (Vic Fangio, Gus Bradley, potentially Raheem Morris if McVay leaves the Rams).

      NFL Free Agency

      Rico is 0%. I think we would really like to have Mays back but we have a value in mind and aren't willing to overspend. I think someone probably will so I think the odds are pretty low but not zero.

      Panthers give Ashawn Robinson permission to seek trade

      By ColumbusCounty · Posted

      Damn I liked A'Shawn too. This is basically a heads up we're planning on cutting you move.  Robinson wasn't the best but I loved his attitude and effort on the field. He held that entire dline together when Brown went down iirc..granted we finished that season as the worst rushing defense in modern NFL history.  If Wharton would have performed up to atleast half of his salary last season, I'd feel a little better about it. We do need that cap space though.

      13. Carolina is coming. The Panthers are well thought of around the league. Their "process" seems sound. I think their off-season will be very interesting to keep an eye on. They made the playoffs, but they're not yet knocking on the door. (Offense was 26th in EPA/play.) I think it's imperative they don't overestimate where they are in their build. They can't throw a ton of money around in FA to "make a run now". They need to be intentional about building a solid foundation. (IMO) And from what I know about the team... I think they will be. Sidenote: I have my eye on offense there, not defense. They HAVE to leave next season with a strong opinion on Bryce Young. They need to put pieces around him to do that. Can't be left wondering what he would have looked like with "better OL play" or "more pass catchers". They have to know. (That part is purely my opinion. No one told me that.) https://x.com/lindsay_rhodes/status/2027212533417869499?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA
