Team looks undisciplined 

His in game decisions are not helpful and not smart

same for personnel groupings 

I understand the challenges with what he has but for the love of God, a fake punt on your own 23?   That call on 4th and 2 to the short side of the field, please 

No point in discussing the defense …but to be the OC and the HC, it is not working

If he called two plays you liked, would it be working? 

I'm not down for a big argument I'll leave that to who is, I gave him a get out of jail card for the season. I think it could take him three years to get a good handle on the job.

I want stability inside that organization and it will not come with firing him. 

edit: or, if you could guarantee that we would have it if he was fired, then go ahead.

I can’t even tell that we have a coach, honestly. I have no idea what gets worked on week after week and it’s been this way since the first preseason game. I don’t know if it’s the players not responding to him or what but it’s straight pitiful. Talent is one thing, I get it…. but the entire team looks like they have no clue on what’s going on. That’s on him. I think he’s not the fit we need and he’s in way over his head.

I could smell the quit all the way from Georgia.

I have to wonder if anyone in the entire franchise actually gives a sh*t anymore. These NFL execs and coaches and even a good chunk of the players make tons of money. The people who work on the executive and management side of football are not special. It’s a fantastic level of good ol boy networking and nepotism to get one of those jobs and move up the ranks. It breeds allowing losers like Scott Fitterer to do literally nothing of note and get a GM job by swindling a naive owner. In summary, most of the people making the decisions are set for life with the amount of money they make, no one is really hurt in the end by being inept retards at their jobs, so why do they care? They don’t. The team will just keep regurgitating the same old results because no one cares and expects to get fired and collect another fat paycheck from another team. The Panthers are done.

No

INMHO

He needs to either be an OC or an HC

Not both and certainly not with this team

Few head coaches are good  enough to be successful at both

I don’t really disagree. Few are, and thinking that because a couple are we need to have that too… 

I think something like that may end up being on the table for him to stay.

Honestly, at this point with just a few games to show what he’s made of, he might be my favorite Panthers coach in history. At least he takes chances and doesn’t tuck his tail in between his legs with a minute to go before the half.  The fake punt didn’t work, but I liked the call at that point in the game. He’s still learning, but I like his mindset. Haven’t ever been able to say that before.

I do too. Like his mind set. Or like it for offensive football anyway and hope he can learn the head coach stuff. I have o ly heard that there is no way you are ready for what being an NFL head coach entails if you have never done it.

      Smitty on TMac

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
