Anybody still not on board?

But, but, but Steve Wilks is from Charlotte 

Nothing wrong with anyone who felt Wilkes deserved a chance to be head coach. Having said that, I did not pay 2.275 billion for the team. It is up to David Tepper to make decisions he feels is best. Wilkes landed in a good place. I wish people would let us move forward. We all want the same thing at the end of the day.

Carr definitely doesn't want to be playing for the team that drafts Stroud. Nothing about this situation gives the impression that he'd be happy to mentor someone for a year or two before taking a backup role

Lol...If you pay him he will not mind one bit.

The staff hired is impressive.  Appears Tepper has gone 360 the other way 

I was at Maryland when both Boomer and Frank were there…impressive they both actually attended class   It is difficult to not like Frank.

anyone who has followed the Panthers from the beginning is probably shell shocked. We have heard ‘the next great thing’ multiple times 

I trust Reich to make the right qb evaluation, particularly since he has staff around him to give varying opinions    As example,   I am no fan of Levis, frightening that he reminds me of Wentz, but if that is who they choose, that’s who they choose 

bottom line, have to win. 

360° would return you to the dame direction 😅

He pulled a 180°

Doubtful.

I'm happy.  Little bit of youth in there is keeping me that way.

Don't want to get TOO old in the coaching rooms.  This feels like a group of people who know what they are doing...first time in the teams history that I feel that way.

Fitts is still the unknown, and we do need a QB in the worst kind of way...but from GM all the way down to our QB coach, I feel that this is the most qualified front office and coaching staff that's ever been here.

So we might not be a dumb team anymore? 🤔

I can’t imagine being unhappy with this after the first 5 Tepper seasons.
It is looking maybe a little excessive with the ex Panther connections but those seem solid as heck if you take that away. Making it potentially massive. You can redefine (for those who missed it the first time), reinstall the personality and values of the organization. And do it with the most credible proponents you could want here teaching the newcomers. That could be really impactful long term (look how long it took the Raiders to totally eradicate ‘Commitment to Excellence’ once it took hold. Decades).

And newcomers, Evero isn’t someone I knew much about but I am a defensive football lover. More so when they played a contact sport but anyhow Evero is the up and comer that checks all the boxes right behind Ryans. And has more experience coaching football as far as it goes. He should be bringing us some good defense. The LB coach he brought has a nice little track record too.
It all looks good. Looking at the players he has to work with, it might resolve some of my feelings about passing up the picks for Burns. There is just no way you pass on that for your light and fast no run stopping 4-3 DE. But in another alignment it might be more understandable.  

Few UFAs and Lots of picks. More talent than the typical last place type need a new coach team. It is a pretty good situation. The only thing they can really screw up is the first big thing they are gonna do. Which I won’t bitterly hold that against them if they don’t throw draft picks out the window doing it. Missing on your first rounder at 9 is a big setback but happens and shouldn’t kill you. It gets a lot worse the deeper you go.   
I will support anything you want to do at QB except trading the future for a fantasy.  
I really hate it worked out this way for Wilks and wish he could be part of it because I think they are going to do a good job here finally. And I have a much better feeling about Tepper than I ever had.  Better not go overboard here though.

Speaking of Ben Johnson...

From the article...

In an appearance on a team podcast, Johnson said that a visit to a Brooks concert at Ford Field early in his tenure helped convince him that there were still things he wants to accomplish as part of head coach Dan Campbell’s staff.

“I was thinking at the time and soaking in the atmosphere, and it was like, ‘Holy cow, this is what a home playoff game is going to be like, and this is what I want to be a part of. This is what I want to feel. This is what I want to experience.’ Johnson said. “It made me feel some type of way and I kept going back to that as part of the process and you know what, there are so many good things going on here. So many good people, coaches, players, I love the offensive staff and everyone we have on board there. I love the players. I love coming into work every day. Coach Campbell is incredible, and so end of the day talking with my family it just made sense. Don’t ruin a good thing.”

So It wasn't anything about his interviews or the Panthers organization that sent him back to Detroit. It was a Garth Brooks concert.
