If we hire Brian Johnson then we will have 3 African Americans as major coordinators, which might be a first in the NFL. Tepper is being a man of his word and giving REAL opportunities to black coaches. The dipshits in the media keep disrespecting us black folk and telling the NFL owners to do some affirmative action bs rather than give us the tools to succeed and perfect our craft. The way we are doing it is the right way take great talent, elevate them and then the coaching gigs will come as they are deserved. Mr. Tepper you are starting to get a little momentum to be looked upon more positively by Panther nation going forward in the near future!

God I love this hire.

Makes the Rhule decision 3 years ago that much more questionable.

Tepper really handed the keys to his multi-billion dollar operation to a guy fresh out of Baylor and all his college buddies with zero experience between them.

 

At least he appears to have learned from his mistake and wasn’t afraid to fire Rhule midseason. Mistakes and bad hires will happen, correcting it quickly and adjusting are promising responses.

Here's a wrinkle...

Joe Person indicates Evero will be allowed to choose his own defensive staff.

From the article...

Besides the Panthers’ talent on defense, the ability to put together his own staff in Charlotte was attractive to Evero.

We'd seen some talk about that but now it's confirmed.

Wonder if the OC will be able to do that also (outside of Campen).

It would be more difficult for the OC with Staley guaranteed a job, Campen as you mentioned, and Reich calling plays.

Would probably have to be a promotion if someone was to take the job as OC if it is in title only.  A QB coach or passing game coordinator.  Not likely that a current OC would sign up for the gig, especially given that's a lateral move on paper, though actually a demotion in reality if Reich ends up calling plays.

This may be tinfoil hat, but I think the OC is already selected. As in, it's a done deal in all but writing. We haven't heard any words on OC and we've only interviewed Cooter, right? I think our OC is currently on the Eagles staff and we're just waiting on the official interview.

It was mentioned that Staley with keep his current title at minimum, but could be named OC when they hired him as well.

Looked a little at Evero's background. He and Reich have a common connection who also has a shoestring connection to the Panthers.

He's an assistant who's coached both linebackers and defensive backs in his time, including our own Cory Littleton.

His name?

Another thing I noticed: Evero's position coaches in Denver were nearly all young guys who hadn't been coaching for all that long.

Kinda suspect Sean Payton won't retain those guys (he'll likely want his own) so if Evero wants them, he can probably get them.

I wouldn’t be surprised if some of Reichs guys got mixed in too.

I wonder about Billy Davis he has some connections to Fangio and Capers. I believe he coached LBs here in the 90s under Capers coaching staff. He is was on Arizona’s staff last year as LB Coach. 
 

Edit: Yeah just checked he was LB coach under Fangio here. Guy coached Lathon and Mills

      Dan looking at a new Conerback!!!

      Nothing wrong with starting to look for bodies early. It's a long injury filled season. I doubt we get through unscathed.

      Adam Theilen said he came back to play with Bryce, and he expects the Panthers to surprise some people

      By Icege · Posted

      We're in alignment regarding Thielen not being a game changer/breaker for the Panthers. Getting the ball into hands of playmakers like TMac and XL is going to open up things more than it is getting it to Thielen underneath (or letting him go after 50/50 balls 20yds downfield in his mid-30s). However, in a room where the other guys are two second year guys and two rookies, having a reliable vet that they can learn from is just as important as it is for the QB to have as a reliable third option. I can see that being worth $8.5M (just 3%) of the $279.2M cap... especially when looking at what's left out there: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/_/position/wr However, the idea that the team is forcing production to Thielen and leading to losses isn't supported by the data. Targets, not receiving yards, are how you can tell if a player is being "force fed." In the two games mentioned, let's look at the other players available... vs. TB 10 targets - Adam Thielen 9 targets - David Moore 8 targets - Tommy Tremble, Xavier Legette 3 targets - Jonathon Brooks 1 target - Dan Chisena, Feleipe Franks, Stephen Sullivan vs. PHI 11 targets - Adam Thielen 8 targets - Xavier Legette 5 targets - Chuba Hubbard, David Moore 2 targets - Tommy Tremble 1 target - Ja'Tavion Sanders, Deven Thompkins There isn't exactly a bounty of other names to throw the ball to. In those games, AT was one of the top 2 WRs. Diontae had been gone by that point.   So... yea. Agreed that Thielen isn't exactly carrying the team in his mid-30s, but it's undeniable that he was the most reliable target last season that still has quite a bit of value this season. Whether or not that value is reflected in a manner folks think on the contract is going to come down to personal taste. However, the idea that the team was forcing production to AT and that was the reason behind some losses couldn't be further from the truth.

      I would also add that I think it's more than money.  AT has looked absolutely miserable out there at times, and there was a lot of speculation he would demand to be traded.  Personally, I thought he was a lock to be moved last year.  Maybe his hamstring is the only thing that prevents that from happening. The fact that he's not only willing to come back and play, but excited about it, really bodes well for Bryce.  AT is a veteran and he knows the game.  If he didn't have confidence in Bryce, I guarantee you he wouldn't be in a Panther uniform this year.  I'll take that as a positive.
