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:

Steichen and Fangio would be a fuging God send

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.

    • I think his stats will depend on the development of the rookies and sophomore receivers, which isn't totally under is control. The eye test is a different story. Has to consistently look the part before you decide to pay him Purdy money. 
    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
