This guy speaks of Anthony Richardson as if Cam Newton never existed.

  Also, I don’t recall hearing that the playbook was Browns, just that it was a collaborative effort.  Even so, Reich’s sequence of plays is more of a problem than the play designs, on top of the abysmal game management.  
 

 Promote Brown to play call duties before you decide to can the guy…

Brown wrote most of the playbook. I’m not sure if the ‘answer is on the roster’.

It's one thing to write the playbook. It's another to be the one using it. Think of it like an artist who draws an out line then hands it to someone else to interpret and color. Guarantee you its not going to look the same as what the original artist intended.

I don’t think it matters much who is calling plays. Brown wrote the playbook. This is his system too.

Remember, Brown was coaching RBs the past few years. This is his first go at OC in the NFL. 
 

IMO, Brown will be the first to get the boot. Frank will get another year with the ultimatum to find a better OC with a better offensive plan.

Maybe I’m just trying to find any glimmer of hope here, but I could’ve sworn out offense seemed to come to life during preseason when Brown was running it. Am I wrong here?

When he said they had a call that could go to Theilen and only him, and he wasn’t even in the game, he absolutely told on himself. This offense is stuck in the past. It’s Kanye the least innovative, least “dictating to the defense” offense that I’ve ever seen us run. It’s just slow and dated and boring. If Young was in Houston he’d be lighting it up like Stroud and if Stroud were here he’d seem stuck in the mud like Young. Reich has GOT to give up supreme control over the offense. 

There’s a part in that article talking about how things have evolved from plays that are only created for one person, which made me immediately thing of the Thielen situation.
 

He announced to the world how outdated he is when he made that statement.

I'm just wondering why Tepper, Fitterer and company ever thought that Reich was some type of offensive play calling guru. Fitterer and Morgan have seen enough football to know that Reich ain't the business. Someone had to lead Tepper down the wrong path. Simplistic schemes just aren't going to fool anybody in the modern NFL. 

Reich get's undeserved credit for making Wentz look good.

I've been calling for Reich's firing since week 2. The offense is horrendous, and a huge step back from Ben McAdoo of all people (and Joe Brady). It's unfair to pen such a predictable, ancient offense on Bryce and the players. "But Andy Dalton" that was in spite of Seattle's putrid defense and also playing prevent in the 4th

naw fam, most coaches aint going to turn down a head coaching job, no matter the reputation of the owner. its only 32 in the world and its possible you will never been this hot again.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
