Potential Head Coaches

[rayzor]

You may be right Rayzor but you have to think in JR's shoes for a minute, who does he want as opposed to what the fans want?

Again, Grimm makes the most sense as to who JR would look for

i can't remember who wrote the article, but they were talking about how richardson needs a salesman for the team to come out and do some PR building and repair the image of the team. winning will do a lot, but right away, it has to be a dynamic personality. that wouldn't be grimm. i can't imagine he would be anymore personable or media friendly than fox.

[rayzor]

That almost sounds like a Mike Singletary type of guy..and we see how well that is working.

harbaugh is smart. thats not something people ever accused singletary of being.

[Mr. Scot]

This sounds great, but I am not so sure that I want any DC or OC from losing teams. I am ready for some guys that have won year in and year out calling plays for us.

The Giants current DC (Perry Fewell) was with the Bills the year before.

Zimmer's got a pretty good track record as a DC prior to the Bengals gig.

[Snake]

Hell I would just take Jim Harbaugh and Zimmer. That sounds like a Payton and Williams match made in heaven. For that matter I would just take Harbaugh... Meeks is not the worst DC we ever had.

if that was the only facet to him, there might be a problem. it isn't and it won't be. i can inderstand you looking for any angle to make him look not all that great, but like it or not, he's going to be one of the most sought after coaches in football and he will be successful with whoever he coaches. he'll build a team that will win a whole lot more than it loses.

there's no way i would compare him with singletary. he's at a much higher level. think a smart and offfensive minded rex ryan.

anything works if you win more than you lose

here's something else i thought of...if you are a FA player looking for a team, what is going to get your interest more? someone like jim harbaugh or someone like russ grimm. players will buy into the hype as much as anyone. one thing the panthers is hugely lacking in has been any amount of hype.

the same goes for assistant coaches. if we want to bring in the good ones, we have to have someone that people are drawn to and who can sell the program. that is going to be harbaugh much more than russ grimm.

I would think Russ Grimm a former Hog and HOF.

[rayzor]

doesn't make him a good head coach. he just doesn't seem like much of a salesman.

[scpanther22]

doesn't make him a good head coach. he just doesn't seem like much of a salesman.

did you see his HOF speech?

I thought he made a good case for himself..

You want Regiie White to coach the Panthers from the grave?
