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."

    • That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
    • The Saints being that high is the one that killed me. Chris Olave might not know his name at this point, Shaheed is coming off injury as well, so 31 year old Brandin Cooks might be your best WR...coming off a 260 yard season over 10 games. Kamara is Kamara, but didn't have 1,000 yards last year and is about to turn 30.  Toss in the fact that Taysom Hill may be the best QB on the team and I truly don't understand Barnwell's thoughts beside seeing the names "Olave" and "Kamara" and going yep, that sounds better than "Chuba" and "Thielen". 
    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical.
