I feel like there is a reason why we brought in a couple of HC candidates after hiring Reich. I think Tepper wanted a safety net in case Reich didnt work out.

Reich hired Evero and let him hire all the defensive coaches. Reich also brought in Brown. If Tepper/Fitt are hiring OCs and DCs we are in even worse shape then I thought.

Go get Ben Johnson and a new GM this offseason. 

Why would any high level coaching and front office candidate want to get anywhere near this franchise? Roster is poor with no depth and minimal draft capital with meddling owner that cannot seem to get out of his own way. This is easily one of the least attractive jobs league wide. Dark dark times ahead in Charlotte - I don’t think we’ve seen rock bottom yet and Tepper is the common denominator.

The right move is to play the long game. We’re in this mess because everyone wants a shortcut.

We need to draft BPA for the next 3-4 years, stop theses stupid trade, and we need stability on the coaching staff for once. A new coach every 2 years will never create a winning team.

Pretty soon that kind of environment  is gonna make no one want to take a job here at all. I think he needs to ride Reich out the season. 

I keep seeing this pop up, but there is just no basis to this. There are only 32 NFL head coaching jobs out there, there will always be someone who wants the job.

What in the world make you want to keep this coaching staff though? Why would we want stability with the worst coaching staff in the league? The right GM, the right staff = winning team and stability. We currently have neither.

Its like I said in my next post. Reichs hiring was almost solely depending on who he would be able to bring in and how the staff would be formed.

If we fire Reich this season, who will want to come here to coach? The entire league knows we have a bad roster. THE ENTIRE LEAGUE. Could we be coached better? Yes but firing him will do more damage long term than any good. 

I agree that Frank needs to hand over the play calling however.

    • Not sure if they are happy but realize they can’t upgrade everything this year and are content with the group
    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
