No it's because he has mediocre results as an HC.  We also just watched the Colts do the same thing at QB we have done except on steroids.

his mediocre would be "great" here. 3/4 winning seasons and the most points for in any panthers season outside of 2015...but don't let that stop you from banging that drum

One thing can be said about Reich, there would be no learning curve like their might be with SS.  Short term that is awesome, long term who knows

If we are just trying to get to the playoffs and then lose then you are right. Great hire.

A) Ive done (as I am sure everyone on here by now) zoom interviews/meetings.  They are very rarely fluid where everyone is comfortable.  I am sure there were like 4 people from the panthers on the screen asking questions.  Its incredibly tough to get into a rhythm if you are being grilled like that. 

B) the dude was in the middle of prepping for a game in the playoffs.  Who the fug knows what was on his mind.

C) the interview was an hour long, what could he have possibly done in that time frame to completely write himself off?

 

Point being, if we dont bring him in the second we can and get an in person look and talk with him then we are fuging morons. 

A) Since Covid they have been very fluid, lol. 

B) He didnt even know his opponent yet when he interviewed with us... how was in middle of prepping? He interviewed with us the Saturday of the first round of the playoffs where the Giants beat the vikings - which was a Sunday.

C) They could have asked what do you feel we need to focus on heading into this next season, and what moves should we consider making? Then he could have replied with a bunch of general speak and say "we could trade for Trey Lance this offseason" and then automatically the intreview group were like "nope"

It's not like they are going into these interviews thinking lets go with the flow and see what happens. They are looking for keywords, agendas, strategies, and how they would fit into the culture. 

One hour can tell you a lot about an individual.

again, if we totally discount ss from being a candidate from one zoom interview then we deserve every shitty thing that comes our way

He was in my top three post-Johnson dropping out.

I think if he can round out a good staff it is a step in the right direction. Not 100% sure he is the guy to lead us to the promised land but I am willing to let it play out.

im 100% sure wilks isnt that guy so at least there would be some form of hopium I could get behind.

Why are we dismissing that he could have actually just came off as unprepared and didnt have a good plan? Is that not a possibility?

who do you want?

Probably a first time, young, sexy, HC.

 

Reich is like $300k

 

A first time HC is a mystery box anything between $1 - $1 million.

 

Some people like the gamble more, and that fine. 
 

But pretending Reich is poo is absurd.

    • I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.  
    • I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
    • Sadiq feels like a lazy comp.  Sure he would be a big improvement over what we have but at a position we don't and maybe can't (midget qb) utilize.  I hope the staff puts together a list of players you automatically take at 19 (Freeling, Lemon, Downs, Faulk) and if none are there, trade back to look at (Thieneman, McNeil-Warren, Proctor, Lomu, Allen, Iheanachor, Banks, Woods).  I get the people that think an OT would be a waste because we temporarily patched that hole, and ILB and safety are a waste because that is high to take those particular positions, but by trading back we get extra picks to fill every need.  A draft that has an OT, S, ILB, slot WR, and C would really put us in a good position moving forward if we get an extra first three rounds additional pick.
