Tepper is gonna pull some stupid poo like naming Reich and Wilks co-HCs and in game management will be a disaster

 

So I may not be wrong...

The MMQB's Albert Breer said he believes the Panthers would like to hire both Steve Wilks and Frank Reich.

As Breer notes in his tweet, this is his own opinion and not a report. Still, the Panthers have had second interviews with both Wilks and Reich, and would benefit from the two co-existing on the same staff. With Wilks already having the support of the locker room for the head coaching role, it's likely the only way this would work would be with Wilks as head coach and Reich as offensive coordinator. This situation could become an interesting one to monitor as the Panthers reach the home stretch of their coaching search.

And all the Colts had to do was beat the league-worst Jacksonville Jags to get into the playoffs on the last game of the regular season in 2021 and they pissed their pants. Lost to a bad Raiders team the week before and then went to Jacksonville and were never in the game.

This is again another one of those situations where you have to determine is it the HC's fault or the QB's fault? Wentz turned the ball over twice in both of those games. One of those turnovers in each game were critical as well.

That would be funny if Payton walking had to do with Tepper not wanting to pay Sean as much as Sean probably wanted ... and is now might hire two HCs who will not take a discount. If he ended up paying more for them ...

This is a scenario completely made up in your own head.

Reich just got fired from Indianapolis. That had to be such a bullshit hassle dealing with all of that. Maybe he wants a break. He doesn't need the money, and his life is in Charlotte. Why wouldn't he accept gobs of money to be an 'overpaid' OC for the Panthers in his now home state? If he wants to be a HC again, he'll have plenty of options over the next few hiring cycles. 

If you have Wilks to handle the 10,000 foot view of things, and let Reich and Fangio handle the actual coaching, it sounds like a dream scenario for an owner with enough money to make it happen.

Because he's making gobs of money to sit at home anyway?

      Go after Shedeur this offseason.

      Just had his best game? The Panthers did have their best win in terms of quality of opponent.  Reality is, Bryce Young was treated like a backup QB for almost the entire game vs the Rams.   It's yet another example of a long run of oddities come to life for Bryce on  the year.  Almost this weird The Golden Calf of Bristol season weirdness where it clearly is not good QB play but randomness resulting in a random season overall.  Canales frankly called 2 really dumb calls on 4th down and it worked out terrifically.  I mean, credit Bryce for making the plays, sure.   But I don't think 2 wild gambles really erase everything else.  I mean, take out the 4th down oddities and he was at 130 yards on the day (with a lot of YAC).

      I mean, did Bryce ever become a prince for more than a game or two at a time?    I am not advocating in any way, shape or form for Sanders as a starter. If he was available for nickels and could compete in camp, I would be fine having him. I don't view him as any sort of savior and he is another guy that has some legit physical limitations and a TON of work to do getting faster and more decisive with his reads. I can't say given sample size he is better than Bryce....yet. But that ain't much in the way of bars to clear. Hence why I am so perplexed by the Kyler arguments here. I mean.....who in the world would even question the fact that he is a better QB than Bryce? And, once again, that doesn't make him good. It makes him better than one of the worst starting QB's in the past 5 or so years.

      I mean, you probably should've waited after the season is over before "going there," that way we we'd have four more games of comparison and discussion. Don't get me wrong, I occasionally go out on a limb, but Bryce just had his best game and has given people hope (which could realistically be false hope), and Shedeur just doesn't have that many games under his belt (even if he does look promising), one of them being against the Titans. No harm in being patient and letting things play out.  If you noticed, Tepper seems to be taking a wait-and-see attitude, and he didn't mention Bryce in the clip in the other thread. I'm still highly skeptical of Bryce (and glad that Sanders has shown an ounce of success), but the reality is that we have to let things play out. The Sanders train left long ago (if it was even here). But,there are more realistic options if Bryce turns back into a frog.
