So our stupid meddling owner that should never make another football decision is responsible for this popular move that the HC said he was going to make before the season started? Lol Don’t ever change, huddle.

No coach is going to stand there and say Tepper said I had to do it.  Nor would Tepper want that.   None of that would square. 

and you know it wasn’t the truth with Frank’s bullshit reasoning of why he decided now…..when he claimed he finally had the offense in a rhythm as the justification.   No one that follows football believes the Panthers offense is finally in a rhythm lol.   They got blanked the last 3 quarters vs a meh defense.  That’s a bold face lie.

It's common knowledge that the first ~15 offensive plays or so are scripted by coaching staffs, then the playcalling becomes a game of chess. I think once Reich went through what the offensive staff scripted together, he reverted to his playcalling which seems to lean more pass oriented.

I think the fake punt was scripted too. We weren't expecting to be ahead the first time we punted the ball lol

Interesting how many here think:

One of Reich's big downfalls is that he shouldn't be calling plays and managing the games

AND

If Brown calling the plays causes the offense to look better, Reich should be fired and promote Brown to head coach.

I don't quite get that round of thinking.

100% agree that Reich should have handed play calling duties over earlier.

Hopefully this works out and helps with game management and play calling. Let Reich direct traffic and Brown concentrate on calling plays. Agree that the bye week is a great time to make this change.  Maybe we get a couple guys healthy and scrap up a couple wins.

I wish I could pie this twice.

Have you listened to anything this idiot of a coach has said?  Do you really think he knows what he is doing?  I don't, and don't really care how this decision came about, it needed to happen now.

There are other issues I don't like about Reich's coaching style and game management.  But we'll see.  I definitely don't think he needs to be fired yet.

If Tepper really wanted a win, he'd tell Frank to start Dalton.  It's not about wins right now rather than developing Young and to prove to everyone that Bryce was the correct choice HE made.

The great Andy Dalton who couldn’t get a win against a bottom 5 pass defense while throwing 60 times with a healthy defense backing him. Let that poo go

99% of people here know Dalton is a steaming pile of poo as a starter. The want our #1 pick to make him look like a distant memory though. Bryce and company can start doing that next Sunday against the Texans and Stroud.

honestly i think people are just impatient and want to win something. With Dalton, until very recently was our only time our offense was somewhat clicking for a moment. Some also don't want to destroy BY's confidence and end up like Sam Darnold.

I can understand the hesitation but with what we invested in him he's just going to have to work through it and hopefully become a better seasoned QB from it.

Honestly with Darnold the Jets probably gave him one year too many. He just didn't have it.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
