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.

    • Btw... only Mitch fugging Marner has a better +/- than Key 🔑!!! And, Mitchy needed 5 more games and almost 100 more shifts to get there.
    • I was honestly flabbergasted to see Rod send out Stanky and the boys to to matchup against their top line to start the game. The reason that line has been so effective is because they've been matched mostly against 2nd and 3rd lines all year. You've got last change. Use it to your advantage.
    • Nobody played well on defense last night. But, the vitriol towards Chatfield (and to a lesser extent, K'andre) is bigly misplaced. People (not just you) just refuse to accept how bad Slavin has been this season. And, I get it. Canes fans (and informed analysts) have spent nearly a decade trying to explain to casuals just how good Jaccccob is at hockey. 4Nations happened and the hockey watching public started to listen. National media even started floating the idea of creating a new award in his honor. Then this season, he gets hurt. It happens. NBD. But, when he finally came back, it wasn't the same. He'll get back to his old self in no time. Probably just some rust, it'll be fine. Only, it wasnt rust, and he's not fine. He's bad right now. It wasnt just last night. Although, that was absolutely the worst game of his NHL career. Slavin (-4) currently has the 3rd worst +/- of anyone left in the playoffs. We've  been begging the world to recognize Jaccob Slavin's greatness. And, by the time we finally got people to listen, he shits the bed! I blame Kash!
