But you know that question is most likely going to be asked.

I doubt it.  Fitterer even said after this season that last years draft was a "nuts and bolts" draft and never mentioned Corral I dont think.  The question I'm sure that came up is what would you want to do to fix the qb problem.  Not, can you fix corral?

Actually, Steichen came from the Norv Turner tree and there is rumblings of him and Scott Turner joining forces

I think I'd be content with Steichen as HC with Turner as OC and Fangio as DC. I was listening to The Athletic Football Podcast this morning and they were talking about how Turner has been saddled with poo QBs his entire tenure as an OC:

• 24 games with Taylor Heinicke 
• 7 games with Carson Wentz
• 6 with hobbled Alex Smith
• 6 with Dwayne Haskins (RIP)
• 6 with Kyle Allen
• 2 with Will Grier
• 1 (partial) with Garrett Gilbert
• 1 with Ryan Fitzpatrick 
• 1 rookie 5th round pick Sam Howell

He's coached 54 games as an OC and never once had a true NFL starting QB. Podcast below (Turner discussion starts around 57 minute mark).

Also good thoughts at the top on the HC openings and basically have Texans (due to draft capital and ability to grab your QB) ranked first with Panthers second (much better roster and an owner committed to spending on a winner). Said if the Panthers had a 2nd 1st round pick instead of Texans, Carolina would be far and away the best opening.

An outstanding job would have been playing aggressive vs the Bucs in a game that decided the NFC South, not settling for punts and squandering a lead. 

Also the whole supposedly being a defensive coach and letting them burn us for 3 huge touchdowns running the same play over and over without helping adjust.

You might wanna be prepared for some poo emojis and angry responses

He has coached offense before.  Depends on his plan for offensive coaching.  Apparently he is impressive.

Thanks for the heads up.  Hadn't looked heavily into him but man, he's interesting for sure. 

Worked with Fangio as DQC in San Fran early 2010s (Also w/ST, WRs); then with McVay as a Defensive coach & passing game coordinator.

Now had a really damn good defense.  This guy looks pretty legit.

More impressive than an OC who has lead his unit to a Top 10 ranking in 3 of his 4 years?

Have no idea.  He has years of experience.  That is what the interviews and the research done by the football guys is for.

David Newton is maybe the least respectable person to get speculation from. I trust speculation from 70% of the Huddle over him.

If I'm recalling correctly, realized that the Fangio interview was shortly after the Evero one.  He has direct ties to both him and Steichen. 

Fangio being our old DC, and directly tied with a few of these candidates.  Makes sense why we chatted with him.  I love the idea of him coming back.

Check my username - I'm a UNC alum and fan lol. I like Howell and think he could end up carving a niche in the league as a high level back up, potentially a decent starter, but he's got 1 start in the league. I don't think he's a "poo QB", I meant more he's super inexperienced and Turner only coached him for one game. I'm hoping he develops into a starting NFL QB, better for UNC recruiting

I get it...but I don't necessarily think it'll save you from the wrath of other UNC folk

This does not make me want Wilks as HC either lmao:
