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.

      Dave in a presser gassed up Anthony Tyus III and dying to see him on the field.  I mean 3 is all that needed right, and Dan loves etienne. He's one year filling in his body. If brooks is back, toss in chubba, thats 3.

      After seeing hits in the last two UDFA pools, I do not in this group sorta of a let down after I gassed myself up.  Not like I know of their games, but just expected more. The duke DT only has to beat out hunte (2025 UDFA) or Ray (DL coach's kid) or even Cam Jackson mid 2025 5th.  I thought they would bring in more edges, IOL, TEs, etc...

      The Icky knee didn't explode draft

      By MHS831 · Posted

      My 2 favorite picks, since you didn't ask? 3. Brazzell II.  A 1000 yard WR with 4.37 speed and checks all the boxes for a Z Wide Receiver.  IN THE THIRD ROUND!!! 5.  Sam Hecht.  I think he will take over as the starter at some point this season and never look back.  IN THE FIFTH ROUND. Runner Up:  2. Hunter:  We were targeting a DT early in this draft because we did very little to replace Robinson in free agency.  Hunter was our guy and he will start. In addition to that, you got a starting tackle that should man one side of the new OL we will build for Bryce's second contract. A starting WR, offensive lineman, defensive lineman and possible Offensive tackle (at some point during this year from this draft will start.  UNREAL. In addition, I don't doubt that Wheatley (5th round) takes the FS job by next year and Lee III is Jackson's replacement in 2027.   Finally, even Kuwatch should be a special teams demon and LB depth.   Last year's draft was so good it was ugly.  This one will turn out to be uglier.  No offense Basbear--this ain't about you.
