Receivers coach Richard Williamson, who has been with the Panthers since their inception, announced his retirement today. Williamson, 68, has been the team's receivers coach for 13 of his 15 seasons with the team. He was also offensive coordinator in for some of 2000 and '01.

Carolina was Williamson's longest stop as a coach: He'd been in the NFL since 1983, serving stints at Kansas City, Tampa Bay and Cincinnati. He served as the Buccaneers' head coach in 1991 and for three games in 1990). He was also head coach at Memphis from 1975-80 in the college ranks.

He played for Bear Bryant at Alabama and caught passes from Crimson Tide quarterback Joe Namath.

It's the second coaching change the Panthers have announced this offseason. Special teams coordinator Danny Crossman was fired last week. -- David Scott

I'd like to try and bring in the Saints receivers coach Curtis Johnson, if at all possible. Hopefully, he'd be up for the challenge, lol.

Look what he's done with Colston, Lance Moore, Meachem, and Henderson... Those guys have talent, but they definitely have all maximized it when given the opportunity.

CURTIS JOHNSON 2010 FTW!!!

Why in the world would he leave the Saints, who have better WRs, to come here where we have worse? I highly doubt we'd offer that much more money to make him jump. Oh, and I could look good as a WR coach with Brees as my QB.

    • I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes. 
    • Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.  
    • Kinda depends how you look at it both were 3rd round draft pics.  Nico was nothing before stroud and tank came in with stroud.  If both were on the panthers would young have them doing well and starting or would their stats be low.  I really dont know the answer to that.  None of the panthers wrs have left and did well either but personally i feel neither of nico or tank would do much on the panthers.
