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.

      Bam Martin-Scott: Most likely UDFA to stick?

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I have never seen this cat play a single snap of football, BUT, I really hope that we're not counting on a 25 yo, UDFA who played 6 years of college ball to suddenly replace our starting LB.  Sounds to me like Dean Jones needed a story and didn't have anything else to write about. Wishing the guy luck though, cool nickname.

      Legette admits taking his catching for granted a little his rookie season

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I'll go 1 further than that. This 23 year old had spent 4 years as a middle of the pack college player before exploding onto the scene as a 5th year senior, then we have enough faith in him to trade up 1 spot so that we can get a 5th year option and guarantee his salary. So in about a year's time he went from a mid round pick to a first rounder. It would be hard NOT to let that go to your head! I'm going to trust that the staff know what they're doing with XL and not give him too much crap about being a dumbass LAST season, as long as he doesn't continue to be one.

      Bam Martin-Scott: Most likely UDFA to stick?

      By Icege · Posted

      From Brugler's scouting report... Tavareon “Bam” Martin-Scott picked up his nickname because of the fireworks celebration he typically receives to celebrate his birthday. He grew up playing pee wee football in Fort Wayne, Ind., but developed late and was mostly a part-time player until his senior year at Snider High (alma mater of Jessie Bates). He posted 87 tackles and 6.0 sacks as a senior in 2018, but it wasn’t enough to put him on the recruiting radar. A no-star recruit, he played two seasons with Dodge City (Kan.) Community College and then received several SEC offers. His playing time and production gradually increased each season for the Gamecocks, and he put intriguing flashes on film. Martin-Scott is a good-sized athlete, with pursuit speed to match races to the perimeter. He competes with a banger mentality to pinball off blocks and stay determined on his path to the ball. Overall, Martin-Scott freelances a tad too much with inconsistent steps in coverage, but he is a classic run-and-hit linebacker who likes to play loose and chase plays — necessary ingredients for NFL special teams. grade: Free Agent
