If your tepper and you want a hc with experience and an offensive mind

 

You've got Payton, Reich and Caldwell. 

If just experience, add Wilks. 

 

Unless you convince Steichen to let the team hire your staff (fangio) and such then I think the list is probably from the top set of coaches. 

 

If Steichen is ok with his OC and DC being former HC and being hired by the team, then he's probably the pick. 

I mean Fangio is on staff with Philly with Steichen and we interviewed Fangio after Steichen, feels like it could be a mutual interest from us and Steichen.

To me, that is the ideal situation for a young coach.  

Depends on what he wants...

Coaches, even young ones, generally get to hire their own staff. Some balk at the idea of having any part of it chosen for them.

The team might suggest certain coaches, but if they insist on them, that's where it gets tricky.

I don't necessarily know if Fangio would be "pushed" onto Steichen either. If he's a top candidate, I'm sure one of the questions asked in the initial interview was "who would you be looking to bring on as your top lieutenants"? Remember, Fangio is a defensive consultant for the Eagles this season:

We’re not fortunate enough for that to happen for us. Wilks and Scott Turner coming soon.

I would put Steichen as the favorite unless Tepper speeds up and goes with Payton (who I think he's interested in, but not sure how much) 

 

Also not a lot making it out of Carolina's hiring group like it is with Denver. So who knows what's going on with the Panthers search.

I will say this has been an incredibly quiet search by the Panthers. Only real "leak" was that Tepper/the team was excited by Ben Johnson and he may have been the frontrunner if he hadn't pulled out. Besides that, been crickets.

The scenario where we are "pushing" coaches onto any head coach, means it's time for a new head coach, IMO.

Let the football guys do football stuff. If you don't agree with it, let them know you don't agree with it. If it proves to be a mistake on the field, show them the door.

There have been a bunch of leaks but none of them seemed particularly easy to verify. The closest we got was probably the Ben Johnson one.

Once Arizona gets that interview out of the way, the Payton situation I think settles fairly quickly. 

I suspect that it doesn't actually "settle" itself until Arizona, Denver and Carolina all announce their head coaches. Then I think all the media speculation about Payton will be over.

It's too juicy of a story for them not to keep egging it on.

What I meant was that's it for his interviews and if someone is going to jump out in front or he decides on returning to Fox that I think it will happen quickly.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By strato · Posted

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
