I dont think its any secret that the majority of posters here think Fox is gone after this season. With that in mind, how do you guys see it going down? Does Fox go but the rest of the staff stay in tact, or is it a fire sale and the whole staff goes so that the new HC gets his own staff?

My opinion is other than Meeks, they all need to go. But in all honesty if Meeks were to go i would be ok with it, but i feel like he has done the best job of all the coordinators based on what he has to work with. Davidson should be the first in line to hit the door in my opinion!

So what do you guys think/want??

I want a clean slate with coaches and coordinators.

My hope is that the majority of the players stay, with Hurney remaining here I think it's a possibility.

I have to agree with this. And if Fox goes and Hurney stays, this is what will happen. I would almost lay money on it.

been said many times in many threads.

jim harbaugh comes in and brings his own offensive support staff.

keep meeks and the defensive staff in place.

This is the only thing that worries me about the inevitable coaching transition. Our defense is really good and I worry that a change in coordinator brought on by a change in head coach who may have a completely different philosophy might do several years worth of damage.

So I'm of similar mind to you, but how often does a new coach come in like that and not bring on HIS chosen coordinators?

only in oakland.

of course you do have plenty of times that a new HC comes in and leaves an already successful staff in place. gruden to tampa would be a big example.

Same thing worries me. I love Meeks' system. I think it's one of the best in the NFL, and that if our offense had a better time of possession, our defense would really shine.

But, Meeks is getting a little too old to be an "up-and-coming" head coach. And I think that we're going to go with a young(er) prospect there.

If Hurney stays, I'd love the interview process to go something like this:

Hurney: "So, for you to be our next head coach, you have to agree that Meeks is going to be your defensive coordinator. Otherwise, gtfo."

    • Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers. 
    • Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production. 
    • I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
