Tim Lewis is interested in the GB Defensive coordinator position and may be interviewing for it, he was interviewed in 06 for the Head coach position in GB but lost out to McCarthy. he also has ties to GB as that is where he played his brief nfl career.

A couple of links to the information

Link Link

or another possibility is to let him become the DC here and get rid of trgovac.

JF: Hey Mike!

MT: Huh?

JF: So Tim Lewis might be going to Green Bay.

MT: Uh, ok.

JF: I've decided to make you Defensive coordinator\Secondary coach\Asst. head coach. Can you handle that?

The article indicates Lewis is itching to be a coordinator again.

If he doesn't get the Packer job, and the job comes open here...

I know that's the route they would go, but they shouldn't.

He had some terrible defenses in New York in his years there. Oh, and just look at this wiki I pulled up of him...

Despite his aggressive defensive schemes during his time in Pittsburgh, Lewis reverted to soft defense in his last two years in Pittsburgh and while in New York. Sam Madison, best known for his play as a man to man coverage cornerback, has been dropped back into zone on defense. Another player in the New York Giants defensive unit, Lavar Arrington, has also been dropped back into zone coverage time and time again, despite the fact that his three Pro Bowl seasons in Washington came while Arrington was being sent in on blitzes. Lewis' soft defensive schemes, including a diminished use of blitzing, led to unpopularity among several New York Giants faithful. This is despite his being considered a head coaching candidate by other teams before the 2006 season.[1] The New York Giants defense in 2006 finished 25th overall, 28th against the pass and 14th against the run, as the team barely made the playoffs at 8-8. He was fired on January 11, 2007.

He'd just be another turdovac.

Maybe if we start a "Herm" chant? Or how about a "bump till we hire Edwards (or McDermott...or McGinnis)" thread? There's that :)

(or maybe we should just sit here and brace for disappointment) :(

I'd say unfortunately we should just sit here and brace for disappointment....but that doesn't mean we can't hope for the best.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
