Two choices...your pick

The choices are a lot harder. I wouldn't envy being Tep, Morgan, and Fitt in this situation. Do you bring back the man who instilled Keep Pounding into the franchise or do you bring into the fold not only the first QB in Panthers history, a man who was teammates with Sam Mills, and is an offensive head coach, something this franchise has literally never done. Both would be great stories if they went on to do great things. 

 

That's why I would look toward the future. I have a friend who works for Frank's brother, Joe Reich, at Wingate. He told me a few key things that apply to both the Reich guys. 

Quotes: 

"Very Chill" 

"Regarding the playbook, the playbook is tough to understand. The Reich's are pretty demanding when it comes to knowing the plays" 

"Most rookie QBs aren't gonna understand his system I'll tell you that is one of the reasons that they don't like to rely on young QBs. They're old school. Hardcore West coast Power Run guys. (Eardhart Perkins)"

"For his system to be run effectively, he would need a Pocket Passer Veteran QB" (Derek Carr? anyone?)

"Reich doesn't really care for athletic QBs" (Scratch off Richardson coming here if Reich comes here)

"As a football head coach, they're not John Fox old school but they are by today's standards old school" 

Another thing about Frank Reich I took note of, per this article in the athletic (that is already in another post), it talks about him being a softcore leader (Doesn't really like to call out his players. 

 

TLDR: The coach you want depends on the QB you want. 

If you want Reich, you'll probably get Will Levis (if he does opt for a rookie), Derek Carr, or Jacoby Brisset. 

If you want Wilks, you'll probably get C.J Stroud (great improviser who can throw it 40 times, Softcore leader but Wilks can lead like a mofo anyway), or you'd get an Anthony Richardson (based on the fact he wanted Josh Allen in the draft but got stuck with Pretty Squidward as his QB).

(The writer of this wants Wilks out of the two.)

      So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.

      My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
