Pretty cautiously optimistic about this and wasn't my first choice, but thank sweet merciful jesus that it isn't Payton. Definitely prefer this to Wilks as well, especially if he was going to bring Holcomb with him. Will be interested to see what Reich does with the rest of the staff and if he retains anyone from our current one, I'd like for the two huddle fan favorites (Campen and Tabor) to be retained but if he does go in a different direction in that regard hopefully it's a good one.

Better than Wilks or Rhule....

Jesus is this really our bar.

I mean he is offense and you do have to wonder how many saw Rhule’s hired GM standing there with Tep and his wife and  immediately was like damn, f this. I’d have to imagine probably the better candidates that had the most options. Makes logical sense.

eh guess we will see. Hope the DC is good.

Only really settled on Reich when it came down to a choice between he and Wilks.

I do tend to prefer older, more experienced coaches. When I saw the interview pool though, I thought there was no way we'd end up with one.

Surprise, surprise 😐

Pretty surprised, and that's a good thing.  I kinda wanted Ben Johnson, but at the same time, this team is in DIRE need of structure and leadership....I think Frank can provide both.

Will not surprise me in the least to see Carr in a Panthers uni next year with Corral and a vet fighting it out for the no. 2 job.

At worst, we know that Frank Reich is an NFL coach, and one that's offensive minded....we could have done worse...and have.

Now, let's fill out a staff and see if Luke is interested in returning.

The obsession with Wilks by this fanbase for going 6-6 drives me insane. 

I love Wilks. He is a true leader and an extremely respectable man.

That said, I just didn't think he was the right choice to be a head coach with offenses the way they are in the NFL right now.

Wish there was a way we could keep him but I understand.

      A pretty insane QB stat

      By frankw · Posted

      Well it's not exactly new information that you don't have to draft a QB in the top 5 to compete for a championship. But the poorly run organizations end up with the first three picks. Most of the QB's drafted there never stand a chance. And then you have teams like the Panthers led by the Tepper's that would rather make a big splash to serve their own egos and get talked about in the media for several weeks by trading all the way up than actually being intelligent and strategic and staying put. Worst outcome in that is if you miss you can try again without mortaging your future. But there is another layer in all this. The league is changing again. Even a guy like Darnold with all his physical tools every box checked in that area did very little in the Super Bowl. Seattle had a stout roster all around. Same thing with the Eagles when they blew out the Chiefs. Yet here we are stuck with the tiniest QB in the league.

      Which highly drafted QBs have actually experienced having a short leash? Most of these guys get multiple years of starting to show what they have.

      I actually think Cam Newton is directly to blame for the crazy short leash these QBs are given now.  He was so good so early in his career that he reset the standard for young QB play.  Before he showed up it wasn't uncommon for the learning curve to be a full two or three seasons.  The high draft pick guys that had short careers prior to him typically had injuries or off field issues.
