It is listing the coaches who are  making the best choices when they decide to go for it. Going for it all the time and failing doesn't make you aggressive it makes you stupid. So yeah Rivera is not only aggressive but smart when he attempts it and has a good chance of success.

Bro you are really arguing that Ron Rivera is an aggressive coach.  I really cannot respond to that type of stupidity.  Really man

Of course you have no response since I just showed you the facts and it counters your baseless speculation. Your motto is always don't let the facts get in your way......

Billy marshall and Ellis absolutely unload on the hiring process and how absolutely moronic it was to simply dismiss him as a candidate from a bad zoom interview  What I was saying all along.  Absolute must listen about the process and the interviewing of DC's

 

starts around 30 minutes in

from the minute reich was fired in indy, he probably became the front runner for us. he checks all the boxes they were looking for:

1) offensive minded

2) experienced and successful HC (no learning curve)

3) local/panther ties

i don't think anyone else really had a chance. i think they were burned out relying on potential as a deciding factor because of rhule.

i just hope they are burned out on trying to make a QB reclamation project your starting QB.

Yeah, I think we were intrigued and tempted by young potential offensive wunderkinds, but ultimately after the Rhule flop I think Tepper wanted a safer alternative. 

That's why I kind of expect a young potential offensive wunderkind at OC. It gives him the best of both worlds. Safer, more experienced HC with exciting potential at OC. We'll see...

To be fair, Steichen has not really generated near the buzz folks thought he would. Sure he has a second interview with the Colts, but that situation is a mess.

Agree with this, although I do think there's a notable difference between Rhule picking and coaching a retread, and Reich picking and coaching a retread. Maybe this is just me being optimistic, but I'd like to think if Reich signs one it'd just be to be a bridge QB and not a long term solution.

i hope so.

there's a part of me that is expecting us to pick up Derek Carr, and while i like him and think he's got a lot left in him and he's not near the reclamation project that sammy or baker was... i'd still rather us find our guy in the first round.

Makes me wonder if Sirianni is still heavily involved in the offense and Steichen kind of assists hims/helps draw up plays.

I have some issues here with how Billy specifically is taking some tweets or incomplete intel as stated fact. He's taking Ben's report that Steichen didn't interview well over Zoom and lambasting Tepper for not interviewing him in person/eliminating him as a candidate, but then taking another report from Jeremy Fowler that DeMeco felt like Carolina didn't seriously pursue him so he didn't interview rather than Ben's report that Carolina wanted to interview Ryans and he just wasn't interested in the job (a report I take more stock in given he pulled himself out of the Colts and Cardinals HC searches as well). Or somehow insinuating that Ben Johnson pulled out of the coaching search because of something he didn't like about the organization - if that was the case, he could've kept himself as a candidate for the Indy and Houston gigs and just pulled out of Carolina, but he didn't. He decided for whatever reason that he didn't feel he was ready to be a HC and got a fairly sizeable raise to stick in Detroit and get some more seasoning. 

Then flaming Tepper for not closing the deal with Fangio over $ when Josina Anderson clearly reported that Carolina made Fangio an offer that would make him the highest paid DC in the league and he took that back to Miami and asked them to match. Sometimes you get played for leverage to get what you want from where you really want to go (allegedly given he hasn't even signed that contract with Miami yet).

Look, Tepper has made more than his fair share of mistakes over his 5 years owning this team, but I don't think you can take everything that's gone wrong in Carolina and put it all at his feet and not give him any credit for things that do go according to plan.

I'm an advocate of both. If Carr is released we should be in the mix. Then we should still pick Anthony Richardson if he's there at #9. What I DON'T want to do is trade for Carr. They're going to try to trade him first. We need to stay out of that.

      Surprise! Kon looks really bad!

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      Same, bro.  Yeah, it just feels it has run its course and I don’t know that we’ll ever get more value.  Plus, with the new ownership, this draft has been super encouraging, so dare I believe maybe this FO can get something to really put us over the top in return for Melo.  I’ll still be a fan of his game and try to keep up with him if we move on, but yeah, I feel it’s time to turn the page. (and side note: I felt so happy after their rookie years because I told everybody I wanted Melo and didn’t trust Ant.  And Melo clearly looked like the better player early…  I thought Ant would bust because all that stuff he said about not loving the game and just his resume to that point…  but damn, if we could go back in time.🤣🤣🤣. I love Ant’s game and at times, when he gets in the zone, he is THE BEST player in the league in my opinion.)

      Appreciate that, bro!  And I could definitely see that with Cam.  Even though he’s a little younger than me, he is also someone I admire and feel a kinship with for a lot of various reasons. Funny enough, a few years after that encounter with Steve, I went to Charlotte with one of my friends whose brothers owned a moving company at the time.  He dropped me off uptown and went to work the day with them where I would wait until he got done and then we were gonna go to the Bobcats game that night.  So I walk all through that area for hours.  After awhile, I walk back towards the arena and sit in a bench on the backside of the arena, where the practice court and player’s entrance was.  As I’m sitting there, I look up and almost think I’m seeing things - I squint and blink my eyes a couple times just to be sure, and yes…  it’s one of my childhood heroes, Muggsy Bogues walking across the crosswalk and into the arena.  I think he was coaching the Sting then, iirc.  Part of me wanted to just say, “Hey!  Muggsy!  Thank you for the inspiration and memories!  You were one of my favorite players as a kid!”  But, I just watched him walk by and into the arena and thought, “that was cool!”  I also so Miguel Cotto a couple years back while in Orlando and told my kids who it was but didn’t say anything to him.  I think somewhere in my subconscious, that encounter with Steve really made me feel like the gamble on finding out if they’re receptive to interaction just isn’t worth finding out.  At the end of the day, no matter if they’re receptive inspired us or were a hero, unless they initiate it, I likely never will…  because again, they’re humans just like us.  Not anymore unique or special, they just have a highly visible and very public job that we get to watch and in some ways participate.  So, I just appreciate it for what it is.

      Young up for Player of the Week

      By frankw · Posted

      I'm pleasantly surprised they gave it to Bryce Young over Josh Allen. Finally we're getting some respect. Now I'm just hoping the team follows this up accordingly and doesn't lay another egg.
