This makes sense when you consider that Al Holcomb was the interim DC and that the Rooney Rule was updated in 2021 to require at least one external minority candidate be interviewed for a coordinator job.

So the same will happen for the OC position. Probably sooner than later.

Interesting and good to hear as I’m not a fan of Manuel at all, he was pretty terrible with the Falcons as DC

...a position he's held before.

You never know, that was like 25 years ago.  Wouldn't be the first coordinator to go back to his former team.

Not that I expect it to happen, but it would be awesome.  I'm sure he'll be a DC again.  Maybe he goes with Sean Payton, but if he doesn't?  There aren't a whole lot of teams looking for a DC.  Wouldn't hurt to inquire.

Technically Payton has to go somewhere himself first.

What's funny to me about this idea is that Fangio's defensive concepts are used all over the league, but the young coordinator who found an exploitable flaw in them and rode it to success was...Ben Johnson 🤔

I wonder if Manuel has any connections to any of the candidates so far? He was in Seattle with Fitt but that's all I found. 

There are many connections beyond work/college ones among NFL coaches. There are a lot of friendships made along the way and friend of a friend introductions are really commonplace.

My thinking is that he's being interviewed here as part of getting back to the Panthers identity and reinforcing what Wilks has been rebuilding. Or it could be a Frank Reich thing just as easily.

If you're looking for links to Manuel though, I think this is the guy you should probably be focused on.

They were teammates for a year in Carolina. Manuel also played a few years in Seattle while Morgan was in the Seahawks front office.

(which, incidentally, would also link him to Scott Fitterer)

This is called homework.  Learn to do it before posting, younglings.

Do you think Payton goes somewhere this year, or does he wasn’t until next year when he is done with his contract with NO?

      Any well functioning team benches Bryce

      I was definitely on board with re-signing Darnold for another year while they drafted someone. Darnold really turned a corner once he came back in the second half of 2022. He is one of the better QBs in the NFL now for sure. Still makes those patented Darnold blunders though, evidenced by throwing a pick on a potential game winning drive yesterday. But he was also stellar at times during that game too.

      I dare you to go “pull the records” on my Cam posts. 🤣🤣🤣  Kyle Allen posts too.  I was one of the few screaming how garbage he was early.  Also, look up the posts and see what side I was on when it was rumored Olsen tried to console Cam his rookie year after a tough loss.  And whose side I was on when people criticized Cam for the towel, or “pouting” or for dancing.  I have never wavered.  Not only do I pull for Cam as an athlete, but I felt a kinship with him dating back to his Florida days.  I wrote about it here.  I know what it’s like to be judged off your persona, your reputation that someone else has given you, off falsehoods, off appearances, off of a mistake.  I know what it’s like to be ridiculed and omitted from opportunities for those things.  I’ve never me Cam, but that’s my brother.  So, anything insinuating anything else is hilarious.  I was riding for Cam when half the board wanted Marcel Dareus.🤣  I was riding for Cam and running off racists like “TheRealDeal” over Matt Moore (who, actually was a damn good QB, imo, but he was no Cam).  To this day, I still maintain, if we signed Cam off the street right now, he is the best QB on this roster instantly.  I don’t care what anyone says.   So if you have some sort of previous history with another poster or posters that made the racial component obvious, then please share, but when it’s coming from me?  Trust and believe - this ain’t that.  Never will be.  And no doubt, a ton of Cam hate was purely racial.  But, I call a spade a spade.  Mentioning Bryce in the same breath as Cam is objectively insulting.

      I haven’t. And always willing to show face. If you’re going to a game let me know. Love for you to explain why I’m an idiot to my face.
