Maybe Frank doesn’t know how. Like a lot of coaches, he’s a great leader but a terrible X’s and O’s guy. He knows one way and that’s it. Can’t adapt.

Campen would, though 

And given how bad this has the potential to make him look, it's hard for me to believe he hasn't said something.

I mean the huddle hates Frank and wants him gone so can you fault Tepper for firing him? It’s literally damned if you do damned if you don’t but I also think Fitt is gone too.

I agree, if any changes are made, its a house cleaning and starting with a new GM search. Not finding the right players to fit Reichs scheme is just as much responsibility on Fitt as it is on Reich to execute imho.

A majority of two fan bases think Frank sucks. One team fired him, moved on and is building something and moving in a positive direction. The other team hired him and doesn’t know where they pooed last. To me, if there is not clear improvement, Frank and fitt are gone.

I remember when everyone on this board was singing the praises of the Frank Reich signing.  Dogging Wilks as a candidate.  All I saw with the signing was a retread with a stale offense, who lacked the straight line approach to make us competitive.  We hired his daughter months before we hired him ensuring that there was proper nepotism involved.  He ditched our power run game, gutted the areas we were good at, and Fitt traded our best player and refused to resign our best back.  The Panthers are getting exactly what they deserve right now.

Not getting serious consideration from one of the 31 other opportunities.

Forgot about that part.

I can't imagine anyone honestly picking to come here over anywhere else at this point.

Working for Tepper will be a last case scenario for anyone worth a damn.

I still feel like there’s more going on behind-the-scenes that we do not know. These coaches have had success in the NFL. We can argue if Frank is the right head coach or not, but he is not a complete imbecile, and clearly has had success coaching in the NFL. 

This offense is terrible but I do not think it is because these coaches are stupid or inept.

Common denominator in all things Panthers, David Tepper. 
I think when all is revealed, we learn that Tepper played a heavy hand in the selection of Bryce Young and the relationship between he and Frank soured once it was decided BY was the pick. Frank didn’t want the kid and being basically forced to select him ruined Franks mindset.  I know if I was in his shoes I would have been ready to walk.

The people who matter know what’s going on. They know Campen didn’t choose the scheme. 
 

Franks OL coordinator from Indy is now doing great in Houston. That guy got blasted for turning the highest paid OL into a mid tier unit.

NFL coaches knew it wasn’t really his fault.

    • You honestly think Tampa would have traded down with a division rival so their rival could land a “generational player” at a massive position of need for TB?   bruh
    • Ya'll better quit throwing shots at Zod. He'll come in here and ban everybody. I had a friend @prosource who was banned in 2015 because he said some very minor things about Zod being an ass to the posters on the main forum after starting the All-Pro one. He said he felt like another level is cool, but don't punch down on people that don't want All-Pro. (He did say that it wasn't going to last long anyways.🤔) I distinctly remember him calling and being like "dude, I got banned, my profile says I don't have access to the Huddle!") I feel like once Tepper came in and cut off all unofficial access to the team, Zod was going to be around less. The All-Pro board had really good photos, even in game stuff, and I remember seeing him behind a little fenced in area at Wofford for non team sanctioned press/photographers after Tepper bought the team. I knew then his ego wouldn't allow him to continue with past fervency and effort with that reduction in access. Dude was literally in the locker room when JR was owner.  I came over in 2011 immediately after finding out this place existed. I was super involved with the Charlotte forum, and fell off after its demise. I will never forget arguing Pep over Ryan Sims on that forum! Who is Ryan Sims some of you may ask? My answer is exactly!
    • And not see him running free. Because has been free a lot more than he gets credit for.    Now what XL does with that when he does see the ball, is on him.
