So other than firing the owner

First move would be hire Ben Johnson at HC and Ray Agnew at GM. After that, focus on the draft. The WR class is very good this year and we could get a gamer at 33 like Troy Franklin or Adonai Mitchell. Take a long look at OT and G as well. Jordan Morgan out of Arizona is a guy that might be available at 33 which would allow us to slide Ickey in at G.

Firing Fitterer and finally getting proper alignment between a GM and HC by hiring them both during the same cycle. Tepper hiring a President of Football Operations would be a mature move too but I don’t know if that’ll happen. 
 

Him firing Fitt on black Monday is an absolute must though. If he doesn’t, that’ll kind of tank my excitement for a HC hire because that exposé article made it seem like Fitt had no problem undermining a HC.

We need a change at GM and an overhaul of the scouting department, both at the college level AND especially the veteran free agent level. Bad draft picks are one thing, but the sheer number of flat tires this group has brought in over the years is astounding. And the contracts they've given out to them, whew.

The next thing is to redo our defensive philosophy and go back to a 4-3 defense that is better suited to the NFCSouth. 

Next, go to Brian Burns, give him the contract he wants with the caveat that we're trading him and that contract to a contender team for draft picks. Let's make it work for both of us. If not, let him go and get the compensatory draft picks. It's obvious he doesn't want to be here (based on the effort we've seen) and let's not nail the man's feet to the floor any further.

Renegotiate Sanders' contract based on performance with the option of being cut. Then give Chuba a decent contract. The kid has earned it and still has a lot of tread on his tires. Might not be CMC (and who is?) but he's the best RB we've got right now by a long margin.

Next, at the Combine I'd quietly shop around Jaycee Horn. The kid is phenomenal but he's made of glass. Maybe he can do better elsewhere and we can get something back for our efforts. If he could play for 14 games a season, it'd be a whole different story, but he's getting starting DB consideration and team placement but he's spent most of his time on the training table instead of the field. 

Keep our kicker and punter, lock them in. They've been the most reliable parts on this team.

And lastly, this is a tough one. Stick with Bryce. Hopefully there's growth in him and in our offensive play designs. I think our O-line problems will get stronger in the offseason, we just have to get them to working cohesively as a unit and it could be greatly improved if we let Boseman call protections rather than Bryce.

Keep pounding. Or, honestly, start pounding again. This weak sauce stuff has gotten old.

Fire Coleman and hire a consultant to hire a new President to run the team and clean the entire house while the Teppers take a huge step back and use the new hire as their point of contact with how the team is run. It would take some time to clean all of the mess but wow they would have a lot of choices where to start: Fritters and Suleiman would be my personal 2 with the scouting department right after the draft.

Tepper is so bad at hiring it's comical, just burn it all down even if it takes 2 or 3 years. If you want to really change the cultural cancers that Tepper brought in with him this is the way, top down which if you remember is how he fugged it all up.

Convince Tepper to move the team to St Louis, Oakland, or wherever he wants it, and sell the stadium to the city. The city pays for renovations including grass. Have local businessmen and leaders start campaigning the NFL for a new expansion team. Once awarded a new team, choose a mascot other than a black cat.

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
