Focusing on coaches...why not Rip Scherer?

Thinking about the miserable offense this season and the baffling QB play (Going all the way back to the 2008 season, Jake had some F'ed up games that season before the Arizona debacle)...

I recall a Cleveland newspaper article in which Jake basically said (after being relesased by the Panthers) that Scherer tried to change his throwing style and it just never clicked...He said that Scherer coached him that way and even when it wasn't working, they didn't go back until far too late in the season.

Am I wrong in thinking that Scherer is a BIG part of the problem?

Maybe he is down the chain a bit, in terms of Fox and Davidson getting more of the blame, but I am afraid that Scherer is back there F'ing up the games of both Moore and Clausen.

Opinions on Scherer?

none of us will ever know the extent to which Scherer actually plays a role in the quarterbacks' development. he may or may not be screwing up up their mechanics or mental aptitude for the game, but none of us can really offer more than speculation. it's a question the front office will have to ask itself (and probably will, given the way the season has played out.)

personally i don't expect to see him here in 2011.

Rip's QBs consistantly throw more picks than TDs. His QBs with the exclusion of one freak year by Anderson have been consistantly bad.

The NFL recycles crap coaches at too high of a frequency. This guy did nothing with the last hyped "pro ready" QB in Quinn. Then came here and helped Jake implode........again, only reason he is here is b/c of JR not caring about this season. Makes no sense for Fox to tweak his staff.

I can't see any evidence that any of the coaches on this staff are helping anyone on the team progress towards getting better. I just don't see it.

My only hope this offseason is that a whole new coaching staff finds itself in Charlotte with the intent of going for broke in making this team a perennial playoff contender. I'm patient enough to handle several seasons of slow improvement before we are that contender instead of this driving-off-a-cliff implosion we've witnessed over the last couple seasons.

Fire them all. Burn it down. Rebuild from the ground up.

i'll say right away that i don't particularly want any offensive coaches to come back except maybe skipper and magazu (but even then i won't be heartbroken if they go).

rip may not be a good coach, but he's better than mccoy.

Skipper has been the only coach to really coach worth a damn. I mean damn what dose a guy have to do to keep a job.

He got play out of

Foster

Goings

Dwill

StewarT

Sutton

and now Goodson.

All of which do not drop the ball as much as they did when coming to the panthers.

I'd say Magazu's done a lot with a little more than once.

Yea its kinda hard to argue with ether of those coaches. Both have done well. Still this years line is a mess. Is that his fault? Well Im not sure but no one has played really well. Not even Gross.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
