Dude gets on my fuging nerves.  I understand wanting to be involved in the sense of being dully informed, but he just can't keep his hands off poo.  We've seen it time and time again in the sports world.  You might've been a good businessman in your profession, but that doesn't make you a good NFL owner.  It's a different business, and sometimes being hands-on with everything is the worst thing you can do.

Him hiring his own guy or preferred guy has all the makings of a disaster. 

Personally, I am of the opinion that the building of staff should be a collaborative effort. I don't trust Reich enough to make those kinds of decisions. I'm not in love with his Gus Bradley affinity at all, and I don't blame Tepper for wanting to give Manuel a shot. I would hope that Fitterer is giving valuable input as well.

Yeah, I'm not gonna go to the guy who gave Matt Rhule a massive contract and full control for hiring advice.

Pretty much every head coach in the NFL gets to hire their own staff, and Reich has run a successful team before. Can we say that of Tepper?

Hell, one of Frank's former hires is going to be coaching in the Super Bowl shortly.

I can't see any good reason to limit who Reich hires.

I'm not sure it's limiting him as much as presenting alternative options to consider.  But yeah, stay out of the offensive staff decisions at least.

True, the Dolphins and Fangio deal is not finalized yet, but the fat lady is warming up her scales.  Here's a very good summary of the whole Fangio saga: 

https://pantherswire.usatoday.com/2023/01/30/panthers-report-dolphins-vic-fangio-highest-paid-dc/

Tepper would have to come in with a ridiculously counter-COUNTER-offer to make Vic leave the Dolphins at the alter.

I’m wondering if it’s us upping the offer or the 49ers job opening up. 49ers is a better job but because of taxes he’d make more here on the same contract

I honestly think he's just sitting back and letting his agent pad his retirement.  If Tepper counter offers the Dolphins counter offer to us, then they will likely counter again and Fangio didn't have to lift a finger while getting that much richer.

I hope Tepper counters one more time to make the Dolphins spend up the nose to sign Fangio.

It's already done. 

As of around noon it was reported that an agreement had been reach in principle, but a contract HAD NOT been signed yet, leaving speculation that Fangio was still able to be had if he could be swayed.  (See more $$$$$$). 

Unless you have seen a report in the past couple of hours that a deal had been finalized, but it is unlikely that Tepper can buy Fangio out of taking the Dolphins job, but the rumors are still out there because it's now known Vic was our #1 choice for DC.

      Where would the Panthers be if they sat Bryce Young last season?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      I saw an interesting point the other day about our type of situation.  It could have been wise to hold him off for 1-2 weeks, but that would not have anything to do with Bryce and you could easily communicate that from a PR standpoint.   Why? Well, we just brought an entirely new staff into town, new offense for the returning OL, and had wholesale turnover elsewhere.  So just run Dalton out there the first game or so to see how things are shaking out.  Dry run to make sure we won't kill the kid.  We weren't eyeing the SB.  Get a sense of the line, the receivers, the playbook.  It gives you a glimpse of what Bryce would be stepping into and a good barometer on where things stood sans him.  I suppose we sort of did that with Dalton, but that was a reactive switch and like @Ricky Spanish mentioned, it was against an injured SEA defense where we threw a ridiculous amount.  Who knows, maybe we could have at least won a game or two more that way.  You can adjustments prior to Bryce stepping in, better tee it up for him, and maybe we end up winning game 1 or 2. Last year was such a sh*tshow.  One of the worst seasons I've ever experienced in any sport for any team.  Absolutely nothing made sense together.  Happy we cut the cord early, but should have never hired that crew in the first place.

      Johnson is gonna want $20M+ next year. That's why they should have drafted Ladd.

      It's like folk didn't even watch the game. Dalton took a beating, and barely avoided a lot more violent hits. No 35 years old QB is going to survive a season like that. Imagine him against Dallas or Houston or Indy or Detroit or New Orleans twice! He played better than Bryce in that 1 game, but he wouldn't have lasted half the season.
