Looking ahead (staff speculation)

Baldinger has Ejiro Evero on his primary list and includes Thomas Brown as an honorable mention.

I don't necessarily think we lose both coordinators in one offseason like the Eagles did, but the possibility of staff leaving for promotions is likely higher than it used to be.

(and a bigger deal, as well)

I imagine everyone but Reich is on the hot seat in the NFC South. Arthur Smith hasn't exactly done a lot either. I imagine sticking with Ridder will make or break his time there. 

Rivera, Staley, McDaniels, Stefanski, all have pretty hot seats. If the Jets can't figure out a way to win with Rodgers I'm sure Saleh's will start to heat up as well. 

As for us, McCown and Staley are obvious Thomas Brown replacements, many of the defensive coaches came with Evero so we would probably go outside for that.

They have 9 coaches who could be on the hot seat this year.

Barring a miracle Rivera will be gone.  Wonder if Quinn is waiting on McCarthy to get the ax.

Sadly (or not) all of those names are legitimately on the hot seat, although I don't know that Smith's seat is especially warm unless they completely crater.  The Falcons were better last year than most people thought they would be.

Whether McDaniels is safe depends more on Davis' bank account by the end of the year than anything else.  He could go limping back to New England and the safe cover of Hoodie again.

Old article from before the trade up with the Bears. Probably still accurate but a lot of changes to the circumstances since then.

Hopefully we don't lose any of them THIS time around.  Keeping them for two seasons means we get draft compensation when they leave.

Yep...and if any other teams do come sniffing around...Dave needs to open that wallet and convince then to stay another year.  Another year of experience , if the Panthers do well, will help them be better prepared and let them be picky about where they go. IMHO. This will only be Evero's 2nd year as a coordinator.  Brown will be under Reich's shadow at least this year.

Starting to wonder just how much longer Bill is going to be up in New England?

Were I in his shoes, retirement would have been pretty high on my "to do list" after the last couple seasons.

As to losing the OC or DC?  Doubtful after this season, but if so, it's because we did really really well.

Two years of showing off their stuff, and getting the Panthers to their 1st ever back to back winning seasons? 

Yea, I'd wager a little on it then.

Isn't the speculation that they like Mayo for his successor when that finally does happen?  Although got to wonder that if O'Brian does wonders with the offense.......Well if that happens BB might be around longer. What he did last year with the offense (BB that is) was just nuts.

I’ll take it. Any coach loss means the team was a success. No ones plucking dudes from a team that went 5-12.

I think he really wants to prove he can have a high level of success post-Brady. It's all about ego IMO. Mac Jones ain't it and I think he knows it. Hell, might as well give Bailey Zappe a legit shot.

    • I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.  
    • I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
    • Sadiq feels like a lazy comp.  Sure he would be a big improvement over what we have but at a position we don't and maybe can't (midget qb) utilize.  I hope the staff puts together a list of players you automatically take at 19 (Freeling, Lemon, Downs, Faulk) and if none are there, trade back to look at (Thieneman, McNeil-Warren, Proctor, Lomu, Allen, Iheanachor, Banks, Woods).  I get the people that think an OT would be a waste because we temporarily patched that hole, and ILB and safety are a waste because that is high to take those particular positions, but by trading back we get extra picks to fill every need.  A draft that has an OT, S, ILB, slot WR, and C would really put us in a good position moving forward if we get an extra first three rounds additional pick.
