If you try to keep evero you have to fire everyone he doesn’t want, let him pick the gm, and probably let him pick team president. 
 

like give him belichick levels of control. Or else why would he stick around for this place intrigue bullshit

I'm in! Not likely to happen at all, but I would be happy if that happened. It probably says something that he is able to get something out of the defense with all the mess going on around him.

maybe it has been discussed, but who do folks think is the O coach that went with Fitt to Tepper? 

Caldwell

Brown

McCown

I would think it would have to be one of those 3.  McCown isn't here.  So I think that actually makes him less likely to be the guy.  Tepper seemed to agree with the insight.  That the footwork is an issue.  So I doubt Tepper allowed the guy who was "right" to be axed.  I'm thinking Jim Caldwell.  Who also got a slight bump.  They make sure to note him every time Tabor is mentioned as interim.

Maybe.  I think there is something to this Caldwell/Tabor duo that emerged personally.   Remember, THEY are the ones that fired McCown.   That's how Carolina initially pimped it.   Tabor then sort of wanted to squash that narrative. Always thought it was weird they sort of wanted to plug Caldwell as almost the co-interim at first.  And their first move was to fire the guy directly in charge of the footwork. 

Caldwell also has way more sway than Campen.  If you wanted to know what was going wrong....who would Fitt most likely talk to.  The former HC/guy overseeing it all as an advisor or Campen.  Well, Tepper was advised of what someone thought.

      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.

      Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise
