Reich New Head Coach

Recommended Posts

The Panthers situation going into this coming season is markedly better than it has been for at least 4 years.  Three seasons of Rhule (no explanation needed) and Rivera's final season, where he was basically throwing poo at the wall hoping something would stick because he had run out of ideas.

Hard to believe, knowing the Panthers just hired an offensive expert/former NFL QB, who learned his trade at the feet of some of the best coaching minds the NFL has had to offer during the last 50 years, that any fan wouldn't be stoked right now.

I feel like we need a sign that says this...

Brissett was the only other FA alternative to Darnold that I felt was an actual viable upgrade but was concerned about being a much more expensive option. Would be nice if having Reich here means the price tag is less.

With Reich we can build our QB room, not necessarily have to get a retread. Roll with Corral and maybe draft a guy to compete along with Eason.

To me though, listening to him speak about the defense I could easily see #9 go to defense and seeing what QBs may drop, just like last season with Corral.

I think Young will drop because size/durability concerns, somewhat to the degree Corral fell. Just a hunch.

His contract expired. He'd need to be resigned.

I can't wait to see what he does with currently the only QB on the roster, who needs to get his self back in town asap...

If I am not mistaken they can't talk to the players about actual Xs and Os until April 1.

 

I think it's a stupid rule. I think the players should be able to do whatever they want voluntarily.

Panthers are more likely to trade up the stay put to draft defense…again.

Darnold isn’t coming back. Get over him.

    • Yeah, banking on his hands, vertical, height etc. Thing is we have a processor with an average arm, not a gunslinger so he might not even get those 50/50's to even show what he can do. XL has some of the same BY issues, if he doesn't get some 50/50 throws his way he's going to be stuck catching a lot of expected shallow crossers aka dinks and dunks
    • Really like him. He will be great for Bryce. I hope he doesn't get a lot of push off calls as he did that on some of those catches. 
    • Everyone talks about how important it is to draft a QB in round 1 and have the "5th year option" I haven't seen it play out the well over the past several years. The good/great QB' aren't playing the first 5 years under their original deal.  After year 3 or 4 they are getting mammoth extensions. Having Penix take over in year 3 may actually save the Falcons some money over the next 5 seasons. I doubt they'd give him an extension after his first year as a starter if he took over the starting position after the guaranteed portion of Kurt Cousins new deal ends in 2025.   In terms of playing time, Penix 3 years as a starter would be ending with the 5th year of his rookie deal (assuming his option was picked up). The money Penix would be making in year 5 of a rookie contract would be significantly less than the upper echelon 5 year starters are making now.
