So nobody else?  That second round was really short.  I have to wonder if they do one more follow up with Wilks and Reich before making the decision.  I  actually interviewed with a company 4 times, 5 if you count the initial screening interview.  It came down to me and another person.  The other person ultimately got the spot. 

That said, I can see one more session with each of those guys...probably virtually, and the decision mulled over the weekend with the announcement coming early next week.,

My guess is sometime Friday so they can start setting up coordinator interviews this weekend for next week.

Is Reich interviewing anywhere else? Could he really be a OC candidate?

Tepper is apparently looking for offensive HC and a guy with HC experience.

Only Reich and Payton fit the bill.  Reich wouldn't cost us any draft capital.

So.......

I like Wilks in the locker room but Reich is probably the better bet to get an upgrade over Holcomb at DC honestly. Wilks would only work if they convinced him to take on coordinators outside of his comfort zone. Reich is probably more willing to make a group decision on where to go defensively. Big bonus of the offensive head coach that we've never really had. Kinda ties together the fact that we already started interviewing DC's

I'm thinking Tepper makes a decision tomorrow. No more interviews no 3rd interview for Wilks or Reich there is no reason to delay this. 

I wonder if it's down to who can get/are willing to take on the more preferred coordinators in the eyes of Fitt and Tepper. Both guys are a pretty easy PR sell, Reich is a bit more X's and O's and Wilks more the locker room guy. Have a feeling Reich would be more flexible with the DC at least.

Was excited for this coaching search but the fact it is now down to a guy who was just fired this year and a guy who probably won’t succeed because interim HC don’t really ever work out  and he failed massively at his last full time HC gig is just so anti-climatic. 
I have said it once and I’ll say it again. Panthers love their retreads.

Let's be honest, Reich shoulda never been fired from the Colts. The GM and Irsay, sure they shoulda fired themselves instead. That front office is a laughing stock. 

 

Arizona's front office from Wilks time was also a laughing stock as well and they did him dirty as is well known.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
