Gantt comments on the coaching situation:

Regarding Herm Edwards...

And regarding the open spots, including DC...

Closing up shop for the night

(he also notes that the last time he "closed up shop", all hell broke loose) :lol:

Good find. I'm still not sold on having haslett as DC. Like somebody already pointed out, the guy is not a winner. Granted he has been stuck on some pretty crappy teams and probably hasn't had much to work with, I still don't care for him (probably b/c he once coached the aints).

Crennel was once my choice, but the guy predominantly runs a 3-4. I'm not gonna rant on that, b/c everybody on here knows what is up with that. That has already been discussed.

I agree with Gantt about the herm edwards thing. The more I think about it the more I don't care for him calling the shots on D. For some reason, I think the friendship between him and Fox will hurt the team. I don't know how, but it is a feeling.

Now the guy I like is this Sean McDermott. I like the fact that he is the sort of under study to Johnson in philly. He is a new face that i think could install a fresh scheme here that could hassle teams all day long. I love the way philly plays D. They are fun to watch and get the job done most of the time.

I apologize if this has all been said already, I just needed to write it myself.:beatdeadhorse5:

Where are you guys finding out the unemployed candadites for DC?

Besides the establishes sites like ESPN, Sporting News, SI.com, Pro Football Weekly, Sportsline, etc., these are some of my favorite update links:

Panthers:

Darin Gantt

Steve Reed

Chandler/Olson/Scott

Pat Yasinskas (NFC South)

National Roundups:

KFFL

The Red Zone

Rotoworld

Scout.com

News and Rumors:

Pro Football Talk

National Football Post

Ben Maller

Fan Nation

Side note: Anything attached to Jay Glazer's name is likely bankable. Chris Mortensen generally knows but can make mistakes. Adam Schefter should be taken with a grain of salt.

Reeves was an offensive coach (and he's older than dirt).

That's exactly the kind of guy we need to embrace. Having an offensive mentality on defense would lead to points.

But first maybe he could coach our DBs like WRs and teach them how to catch a ball

He's not unemployed.

(pardon the double negative)

Damn, where have I been?? I went skiing for a few days and caught all the info on some W.V. television station and thought I heard something about Del Rio being axed...... Thanks for keeping me straight!!! I just read his contract is extended thru 2012.

BTW, I live for double negatives!

Maybe if we pulled in a DC who has recently been a head coach, Fox would be more hesitant to go in and try to take the reins in from them midseason. Only problem is, Herm doesn't want to be a DC, and Crennel is a 3-4 guy (i'm not even gonna go there).

Pats ran a hybrid 3-4 with Crennel but he has also coached 4-3 if im not mistaken. Really good DCs can use ether base and have had success in do both.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.

      Official Panthers roster cuts thread

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.

      Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
