Its going to be Johnson unless he absolutely shits the bed in his interview. 

Young, offensive guru, local guy, etc.  It's Tepper's supposed dream hire. If Wilks hadn't become the emotional favorite in the media, I think there would already be a lot more smoke out there than what's now being said this weekend. 

Staff he assembles will be interesting, especially when the locker room might have to be convinced after Wilks isn't the choice. Maybe we get lucky and Johnson's connection to Kuechly can convince him to come on board in some capacity. 

I am concerned that most of Tepper's dreams have been Panther fan nightmares. 

Also concerned about him jumping the shark again.

I like the guy too....I do.....but please don't fuging fixate again.

Exactly what I said in the other thread and got poo on by a few posters @TheCasillasnamely. Tepper is the most predictable and incompetent owner ever. He’s making the exact same mistake he made with Rhule by fawning over the hot candidate. I doubt anyone else is even being seriously considered and it’s just window dressing. 

The difference is Johnson has been in various coaching roles in the NFL, working his way up, for the past decade.

What he has done this year with the Lions is super impressive. Remember they have Goff as their QB. One can argue he got a lot more out if Goff than McVay ever got. He’s only done it for a year, but in that one year he’s the most impressive OC in my opinion.

People hating on Ben for only having one year of coordinator experience, here are some of today's HCs that similar or even less experience:

Zac Taylor - never was a coordinator; been to a SB

Kevin Stefanski - one year as a full time OC; took Browns to playoffs got their first playoff win since 2002

Mike McDaniel - one year as 49ers OC; have Phins in playoffs in his first season

Matt LaFleur - two years as an OC (one year each with Rams and Titans); had 3 straight 13 win seasons

      Dave in a presser gassed up Anthony Tyus III and dying to see him on the field.  I mean 3 is all that needed right, and Dan loves etienne. He's one year filling in his body. If brooks is back, toss in chubba, thats 3.

      After seeing hits in the last two UDFA pools, I do not in this group sorta of a let down after I gassed myself up.  Not like I know of their games, but just expected more. The duke DT only has to beat out hunte (2025 UDFA) or Ray (DL coach's kid) or even Cam Jackson mid 2025 5th.  I thought they would bring in more edges, IOL, TEs, etc...

      The Icky knee didn't explode draft

      By MHS831 · Posted

      My 2 favorite picks, since you didn't ask? 3. Brazzell II.  A 1000 yard WR with 4.37 speed and checks all the boxes for a Z Wide Receiver.  IN THE THIRD ROUND!!! 5.  Sam Hecht.  I think he will take over as the starter at some point this season and never look back.  IN THE FIFTH ROUND. Runner Up:  2. Hunter:  We were targeting a DT early in this draft because we did very little to replace Robinson in free agency.  Hunter was our guy and he will start. In addition to that, you got a starting tackle that should man one side of the new OL we will build for Bryce's second contract. A starting WR, offensive lineman, defensive lineman and possible Offensive tackle (at some point during this year from this draft will start.  UNREAL. In addition, I don't doubt that Wheatley (5th round) takes the FS job by next year and Lee III is Jackson's replacement in 2027.   Finally, even Kuwatch should be a special teams demon and LB depth.   Last year's draft was so good it was ugly.  This one will turn out to be uglier.  No offense Basbear--this ain't about you.
