  I am voting for Evero, with a prayer that he can find an OC that can do something.   I just like the guy.  He made sour mash out of oats this year on Defense.  

I feel like Evero is the floor as far as how far down the list the team will have to go. I don't think he will be option A, B, or even C.

I would be interested to know who he'd propose bringing in as OC.

In an effort to get a realistic field of head coaching candidates I did a bit of research and projecting.

1) First, I listed all the reported candidates as well as a few of the bigger names (Belichick, Harbaugh, Vrabel) and organized them by type of hire.

2) Next, I went through and projected the HC for the teams in need based upon current rumors and other connecting-of-the-dots.

3) Finally, I eliminated candidates that seemed to be getting courtesy interviews (Internal and Rooney Rule candidates).

Here is the initial list:

Former Head Coaches

  • former Patriots HC, Bill Belichick -> Predicting as Falcons HC
  • current Michigan HC, Jim Harbaugh -> Predicting as Chargers HC
  • Cowboys DC, Dan Quinn -> Predicting as Seahawks HC
  • former Titans HC, Mike Vrabel

Offensive Minds

  • Bengals OC, Brian Callahan
  • Buccaneers OC, Dave Canales
  • Lions OC, Ben Johnson -> Predicting as Washington HC
  • Eagles OC, Brian Johnson (satisfies Rooney Rule)
  • Ravens OC, Todd Monken
  • Texans OC, Bobby Slowik -> Predicting as Titans HC
  • Dolphins OC, Frank Smith

Defensive Minds

  • Panthers DC, Ejiro Evero
  • Ravens DC, Mike Macdonald
  • Rams DC, Raheem Morris (satisfies Rooney Rule)

Internal Candidates

  • Panthers Interim HC, Chris Tabor

 

The remaining candidates are shown in the poll. Which would you most want as the next Panthers Head Coach?

Ravens DC MacDonald

I am also intrigued by Macdonald, but then I wonder if that was the path why not just promote Ejiro. Are they really that different of candidates?

I understand we had problems in the Back end this year due to injuries, but I just don't think he is ready to he a HC. We need to see this team get settled under a good DC before they are shipped off. Let's see how he does for 2 years in establishing this team as a 34 defense before thinking he is a head coach. Heck Tepper might not even keep this one for a year either.

    • It's amazing how much yall can say the same things over and over and not annoy yourselves with it.
    • If you only look at measurables, Mingo and Legette might seem similar.  But when you actually look at them and watch them play, they aren't close to the same.   And this is coming from someone who is skeptical about Legette, although ultimately I believe he will work out.  I've just always disagreed with the comparisons to Mingo.   Mingo tests better than he plays/runs, whereas Legette plays/runs as well as he tests.  
    • As bad as things were with the Panthers last year, we still had 4 other games outside of the 2 we won that we came very close to winning.  Could throw the Falcons game in there too, it was tied going into the 4th. I'm not really sure what to expect this year.  I don't think we'll make the playoffs.  However, we play in a very weak division where no team has a standout QB.  On paper, our OL should be good, and could be great if Ikem improves.  That alone could help mask a lot of problems on offense.  Should allow us to run the ball better.  Even if Bryce doesn't improve, the OL should at the very least give him more time to make the easy throws underneath and let a guy like Legette work his magic after the catch. And I think this defense in a 2nd year with Evero should, at the very least, be in the top 16.  I'm expecting our run defense to be as good as it has been in years. I think this team could push for 7-8 wins.  But it could also finish with 2 wins again.  That is just how the league works.  Jets offense was miserable last year, and yet they still won 7 games.   We won't really get a good feel of it until after the preseason, and even then, who knows.
