Looks like we get to keep Ejiro Evero!


Recommended Posts

And then there was one.  With the Baltimore DC, Mike McDonald becomeing the HC of the Seahawks that only leaves the Commanders.  Ejiro Evero is not interview at all with the Commanders.  A lot of rumors saying Quinn and Vrabel is still out there.  Unless something drastic happens we get to keep the part of the Panthers that looked pretty good last year.

I really like Evero a lot.  Very professional.  Seems to raise above all the drama last year on offense.  I also really liked the way we played down the stretch and how tough and physical they were.  Also, note that we had a ton of injuries all over the defense were never at full strength for almost the entire year.

While I would not have had too big a problem if we wanted to fire everyone I think it'll be a great help to first year HC Canales that he pretty much doesn't have to do very much in regards to the defense.  He can focus on retooling the dumpster fire of an offense.

Evero is stability and that is something every other unit can lean on.  I expect in his second year Evero will be even better.

Due to the rules of hiring minority coaches.  If Evero coaches 2 years and leaves for a HC job, we get 2, 3rd round draft pics as compensation.  That is another huge plus.

Already starting to get a little hyped about next year.

Keep pounding.

Well too fugging bad. If he’s this great professional and man with HC written all over him like everybody keeps saying, then he’ll man up and do his job to the best of his ability so that he can get a HC job next cycle.

He does want out but can’t leave if it’s a lateral move. Tepper is holding him hostage. He’s getting paid well but doesn’t want to be here.

Adhering to your signed contract is not “holding him hostage”. He can wipe his tears with his $6M of $100 bills

    • then we're stuck.  tbh, at this point i would settle for just making it interesting. forget winning a superbowl for now. just get a team that can win games consistently and hope that it's enough to get to the big dance.  we want superman. we aren't getting superman. we had him and we blew our chance with him.  find a way make it work and hope that we can with this little guy and quit wishing our lives away for the second coming of superman. it just ain't happening.
    • Gonna have to strongly disagree with you here. Here are the last 20 Super Bowls - only two of them IMO had QB that didn't play like Superman to get them there/win the game/both, and that was Peyton in 2015 and Ben in 2005. Even then they both had that ability, Peyton was just old and Ben young. That said, there were flashes in the pan like Foles in 2017 and (to a lesser degree) Flacco in 2012. But even counting that, it's 4/20. 20% odds aren't good enough and Bryce was absolutely drafted at #1 to be a guy that elevates an entire team and plays like Superman. If he can't do that then it's a failed pick, full stop. Being a poor man's Teddy doesn't cut it for a #1 overall and that's true for any team, not just Carolina.
    • the problem is if we're waiting for Cam v2, we're going to be waiting decades longer.  our best hope is that bryce is better than we all think he is and that canales is able to work some serious magic with him and the scheme to help him live up anywhere close to the potential we thought he had. he's a smart kid. we just have to be able to have a situation that allows him to use his smarts.  the truth with cam was that een he had to have a system tailored for his skillset coming into the league. the difference between him and luck (which was the debate in '09 when we thought luck was an option) was that with luck, he could be placed in any offense and it would work...hence the higher floor he had  than cam. cam, though, needed an offense that was built around him to reach his potential. he could have done alright in a more pro-style offense, but to reach his ceiling (which was seen by a lot of people as being higher than luck). i don't think having to have an offense tailored around what you can and can't do well is a problem for people who can develop around them...after they've truly identified what those can and can't items are. we didn't have that last year. i think we have that this year. we want a guy who can carry a team on his back, but those kind of guys are very rare. we don't need to spend our time trying  find that guy, because even when you have them there's no guarantee that they will be enough.  championships are won, quite often, by teams who learn to compensate for less than the greatest QB play. you have a great defense and can protect the ball while wearing out the other defense and you've got a chance.  we don't need Bryce to be superman (despite where we drafted him and what we paid to get him). we just need him to be able to run (manage) a good offense.
