Now we can move on and try secure someone who wants to be here.

 

Don’t blame him. Would’ve been a great addition to our new staff but there are other qualified candidates out there to choose from. Hope we find the right one.

I disagree. Guy is very plugged in in Miami

He's quoting a local columnist. I kinda doubt that guy's scooping Adam Schefter and Rapoport.

It's very possible that Fangio is going to sign with Miami but I'm gonna need a better source than that to really buy in.

I wouldn’t trust him over the likes of rappaport, schefter, pelissero, Josina Anderson. But they aren’t reporting conflicting info, so I trust him on this and I dont blame you for not.  Sounds like we will get word from the aforementioned names sometime soon!

Here comes the second and third choice options that probably won’t make a difference. God forbid this franchise puts something decent together lmao.

You really think Vic Fangio was the difference for this team?

That's the thing. Given what's already out there, none of what he's saying is exactly a huge stretch.

Leading up to his hire, several different sources were saying that Reich was "gaining momentum" for the job. That's the sort of thing any one of us could tweet without citing those doing the reporting (or citing a friend of ours) and say "See? I called it!"

Mike Klis spoke with him last night and he hadn't agreed to anything with Miami at that time.

i hope that we are still in the running for fangio.

i really don't want us to get bradley. just not a fan of zone schemes at all.

[Jon Snow]

Oh well, plan B it is.

[KatsAzz]

If the Panthers missed out on hiring Fangio as defensive coordinator  there are other good candidates available.

Fangio was  just one of three subjects to have interviewed for the opening, along with New York Jets safeties coach Marquand Manuel and New Orleans Saints co-defensive coordinator Kris Richard.

So, it is not like he is the only good offensive coordinator candidate they will have to chose from.

He’d have been a difference maker for sure. And someone we know that can offer stability.

I can't be mad at Tepper and co here. They were told Fangio needed to be paid, offered to make him the highest paid DC in the league, he took the offer back to Miami and got them to match. He's gonna spend a few years in South Beach - can't blame him for wanting to do that.

I think either of Richard or Manuel would be good DCs here. I think I'd prefer Richard over Manuel, but wouldn't hate either.

As for OC, I think that one will take some time to play out - think it's going to be someone who's on the Eagles staff, whether that's Brian Johnson, Kevin Patullo, or Jason Michael.
