Is it worth the trade off?

Consider this for a moment.

If the Panthers had beaten the Cardinals then beaten the Eagles and gone on to the Super Bowl, then at this very moment Mike Trgovac would still be the defensive coordinator.

Add in that with this season ending in a Super Bowl appearance, it's a lot less likely that there would have been any significant coaching changes next season. Thus, we'd probably have headed into next year with Trgovac too, and possibly all the departed underlings as well.

So which outcome would you prefer?

A) Make it to the Super Bowl and keep the prior staff for the foreseeable future since there'd be no reason to rearrange a winning staff

B) Get bounced from the playoffs and have a major coaching shakeup that likely alters the future dramatically (for better or worse)

I don't agree with you there at all. Historically, teams that are very successful often lose their coaching staff to other teams looking for "good" talent. Look at the 2004 Pats for an example... in just one year after a Super Bowl, they lost both their OC Charlie Weis, and DC Romeo Crennel (this is why they stuck out in my mind). They also lost several assistant coaches, including Jeff Davidson.

So in essence, even if we had won the Super Bowl, I think it even more likely that we would not have kept our current coaching staff, including Mike Trgovac.

If we had won the Super Bowl that would mean that we didn't have the coaching meltdown that was witnessed in the Arizona game. That would make keeping the coaching staff in tact easier to take. Sal Sunseri might have left to go to Alabama any way and I'm sure seveeral of the others would have jumped at new and better positions. We would have had a turnover either way. Since we sisn't win the SB I'm glad we had the mass exodus. Change is good, especially when the status quo isn't getting the desired effects.

It depends on what market is left, which after the Super Bowl, isn't that much. Most teams try to get their jobs filled, likely passing up on the favorites, if they're still active. Had the Vagies came out of the NFC, Spags wouldn't be in St. Louis now - Chip Rosenbloom preferred Frazier. Jim Schwartz probably wouldn't have been the Detroit guy if the Titans were still alive.

      2.7 seconds. If he can get the ball out in under 2.7 accurately to the medium and short routes then they can have a better offense than we saw last year.  Someone said he only had 1.5. That happened more than it should have but that was not the norm for the majority of the snaps. Maybe spending $153 million buys a little better than the weak players mostly involved in those 1.5 fails. Maybe Corbett sucks as a C but let’s at least wait a couple of outings to declare it. If he is adequate at best the OL might become an asset as the year passes. Looking at you Icky. How they help him will be a big part of how well they can operate. I think he needs a lot of help. People were beating him with quickness you have to help him. Unless he just morphs into reliable.  I do think it’s on Young to protect his tackles and himself by making shallower dropbacks. Canales looks to be taking charge of QB operating procedure and pushing it more conventional which I am for.  Question on Young, what is he really good at? Because Canales keeps saying he is going to find what Young is good at and lean into that. So whatever he does best along with handing off plenty seems like the plan. I get afraid when he throws a shallow to the sideline pass of any distance, so they’ll probably do a lot of that.

      2010, 2019, and 2022 are maybe top 3.
