I like Joe but that's a little bit of a lazy article. Doesn't feel like he dug too deep for this one.

I did like this quote though...

One of the things that separated Reich from other candidates was the staff he told Fitterer and David Tepper he would assemble in Charlotte, according to a source with knowledge of the situation. Reich could try to retain offensive line coach James Campen and special teams coordinator Chris Tabor after both position groups made big strides after their arrivals.

As much as I enjoyed Wilks coaching the team, I can't deny that Vic Fangio and Brian Johnson as Reich's coordinators would have had me lean towards hiring him as well. Fangio is a clear upgrade over Holcomb, and I can't think of many outside of one of the Turners that Wilks would have likely targeted to be his OC.

Man... this defense with Vic Fangio running it... 😮

I didn’t like Holcomb as DC.

the more I saw, the less I liked 

I like coach Wilks. But were Holcomb is concerned, he needs to take his own advice from the ‘buddy vs friend’ perspective 

granted there were few coaches left on staff post Rhule, but it was pretty clear Al would have been his DC going forward.  Truthfully, and I remember when Wilks finally became DC for Rivera…it wasn’t that great. 

But it is time for an offensive coach as the Tampa game clearly showed…and a real  qb and qb room, a true complimentary speed WR for DJ and last but not least, a TE without hands of stone

so i googled eich and fangio because i was a little bored and i found this fun little read from a few years back...

the two have a good relationship going back even to that inaugural year and a solid respect for each other as coaches. i'm hoping that Fangio looks at a chance to coach with Reich as something that is too hard to pass up and that Tepper throws enough money at him to make it impossible to pass up.

If we could somehow swing Stroud and then Jalin Hyatt in the 2nd. Maybe take up Eric Ebron on his offer to play TE for his hometown team. He put up good numbers with Reich at the Colts so it would be an easy vet addition

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
