More from Albert Breer on Reich's staff

From the latest MMQB (Link)

I really like what the Panthers are doing with their coaching staff. You’ve seen the hires. David Tepper struck a check to convince Ejiro Evero to come to Carolina, rather than go to Minnesota with his buddy Kevin O’Connell. They pried the Rams’ assistant head coach, Thomas Brown, from Los Angeles to be their OC and bring some McVay influence to their offense. They’ve hired respected position coaches like Duce Staley (who will also be assistant head coach) and Shawn Jefferson, and taken chances on guys like DeAngelo Hall. And it all goes back to what owner David Tepper said: There’s no salary cap on coaches.

In Tepper’s hiring go-round, that meant giving then Baylor coach Matt Rhule a seven-year, $63 million deal to choose Carolina over his dream job with the Giants. In Round 2, it’s meant surrounding Frank Reich with a staff stocked with rising coaches and established teachers, and it’s going to be fascinating to see how this turns out.

To be sure, there are owners in the NFL who’d prefer that spending on coaches—both on the guys in charge and their assistants—stay under control. Some have even worked to ensure it. But with the deal Sean Payton got in Denver from the league’s newest owners, and what the league’s second-newest owner is doing in Charlotte, and what happened last year (with what Miami’s Steve Ross, who just paid his new DC nearly $5 million per, offered Payton), it’s clear where the tide is going on all this.

I say good. Owners should be investing money back into the product, and I applaud Tepper for doing that. Now, if the owners would only do the same with officiating and the fields, we’d be all set.

Breer adds this in regard to Brian Johnson and Kevin Patullo...

• It sure looks like Brian Johnson is staying in Philly, after walking away from the chance to join Frank Reich’s all-star staff in Carolina. Which means he’s in line, once the proper search process is complete, to succeed Steichen as Eagles offensive coordinator.

• That would probably free up Kevin Patullo to return to Indy, where he was receivers coach under Reich, as Steichen’s offensive coordinator, once their process is complete.

I liked the last sentence in the op. Fix the trash officiating most importantly and also the field discrepancies and let’s elevate this sport to the next level. There needs to be a major overhaul to the whole officiating system and a new standard decided upon regarding fields. All teams need to be on an even playing field, literally and figuratively.

But Tepper is hard to work for and it might be hard to find coaches……😀😀

Not saying these guys are going to work but that narrative was so stupid.

With that being said I do like the choices and I also feel like we have some people in place that should know a thing or two about QBs, which finding our long term answer at QB should be this organizations #1 goal right now.

Yeah I'm sick of having Lawyers refereeing NFL games on their weekends. Get some full time guys that have to worry about doing a good job or getting fired, not play football ref for fun

    • Just going off the draft sims and he's always sitting around 20 lol. First year in a while where we haven't been thinking about the draft already in late October so haven't really looked into the top 15-20 picks yet. Also the qb class is super weak so he probably will sneak up into 10-15
    • I fully expect them to pick up his 5th year , and they're waiting for him to put a full excellent consistent season of QB play in year 4 or 5. If that don't happen,  they'll eventually cut ties.  Here's to hoping he just goes on a team in 2026. The worst thing he could do is continue to see-saw us to around .500 records because it might be impossible to replace him at that point unless youre willing to do the veteran qb carousel poo we did from 2019 to 2023.   
    • What do you think of Bryce Youngs career thus far? Are you excited about his progress or is it not enough for you? I included a poll of ranking his performance through 3 years thus far.  I personally think he's made some decent progress. Has had some high moments (last half of 2024, Rams game, ATL game in 2025)  but in my mind, those are still outweighed by the many more lowlights thus far (ex turnovers, missed throws, poor decisions)  It's a very mixed bag for me. He's done enough to get a 5th year option but by no means should we lock him in with a 50+ mil a year multi year deal. I want to see him play consistently well for a full year before that happens (yes, I'm still saying that going into year 4. That might be telling).  Just sucks when you see CJ Stroud, Jayden Daniel's, Caleb Williams almost immediately lighting poo up with their arm talent. Maybe Bryce is just an ultra slow burn. I don't know what to think anymore. Guess we're gonna be stuck with him for a whilr unless we end up being bad enough to earn a high pick next year. I doubted it lol. Overall Stats for his career:       ● 14 W - 30L (regular season)       ● 0-1 playoffs record        ● 61.4% completion, 8291 passing yards, 49 TDs, 30 INTs  Year 1:       ● 2 wins, 14 losses      ● 60% completion rate, 2877 passing yards, 11 TD to 10 INTs, 5.5 yards per attempted pass Year 2:        ● 4 wins , 8 losses        ● 60.9% completion rate,  2403 passing yards, 15 TD, 9 INTs,  6.3 yards per attempted pass  Year 3:        ● 8 Wins, 8 Losses         ● 63.6% competition rate, 3011 passing yards, 23 TDs to 11 INTs  Playoffs         ● 1 game in year 3 ( 0 - 1 in playoffs)         ● 21/40 (52.5% completion rate), 264 passing yards, 1 TD, 1 INT.
