Lockout coaching problem by PK

There's a very good chance the new coach won't have access to the players beginning in March, when a potential lockout would happen. He may not have access to the players until a new labor deal is signed, which seems more and more like it won't happen until at least the summer. And that's being optimistic.

“I can’t imagine what the landscape would be like if a new coach walks into his first team meeting on August 11th and says to his team, ‘OK, guys, we’re switching from the 3-4 to the 4-3, so here’s the new defense,” “And we’re going to run the West Coast offense now. We play a game that counts in three weeks. Let’s get to work.’ I mean, it’s impossible. That’s why the in-house candidate will be more attractive than ever.

In Carolina, there's not an obvious guy in-house, though owner Jerry Richardson wants to keep the coaching payroll down, so he could think of promoting from within.

Also there:

I think Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck is one special player. (Wow. Stop the presses.) Not just as a thrower either. The run he made against Cal Saturday shows everything NFL scouts need to see about the mobile side of his game. Put it this way: Without mobility, he'd still be the first pick in the 2011 draft. With the mobility, I could see teams fighting over him. But if Buffalo has the pick, forget it. Buddy Nix might be getting up there in years, but he's not stupid. He won't trade away the right to pick Luck.

so PK says CBA will take a long time. Kraft says CBA won't take a long time.

guess we'll see who is right.

What would stop the coach from getting together with the players on a voluntary basis? With a young team like ours and a new coach, who wouldn't show up? LOL

The '82 Skins did it, without the coach... and it was one of the major reasons why they were able to hit the ground running when the season started up again.

It wouldn't be the same as a real practice, etc... but the coach could get to know is players and start implementing his playbook.

...Oh and PK has farts in his head, so you shouldn't take anything he says too seriously.

[SorthNarolina]

Calling him PK is confusing because of Pat Kirwan.

I'm not sure how to feel about Luck. I guess we pretty much have to draft him if we're #1.

Head coach Jeff Davidson??

Head coach Jeff Davidson??

Ron Meeks please but I think Jim Skipper is assistant right? The rumors and bs say Meeks is a DC only.

[Chaos]

How about no one from within.

We will end up getting some guy from Cleveland. Half our staff is built of the Browns rejects.

[CatMan72]

Brian Baker?

I've seen this guy in action and he will be a HC some day, it's only a matter of time.

[Mother Grabber]

How does Peter King know that our new coach is a man? He's being a little sexist...

[Urrymonster]

Isn't most of our coaching staff also expiring at the end of this season??? I was under the impression that all the big guns were gone regardless... So the candidates for promoting within will still have to build their staff, who will be new to the regime...

Head coach Jeff Davidson??

this..lol.

Its working for Dallas..why not.
