Adam Schefter from the NFL Network will be doing a live chat with fans at 1 p.m. est. on nfl.com. He'll be taking questions in regards to anything fans want to know that is happening in the NFL. I don't know if anyone even likes him but in case you do and want to find out what is happening with Carolina... This could be a good time to ask.

Just thought I would let you know

Thoughts on the Panthers coaching staff situation. whos the leading candidate for D-Coordinator?

Adam Schefter, NFL Network

Vance: Seems like there's a whole lot going on in your neck of the woods. The two names I've heard connected to the Panthers defensive coordinator job are Ron Meeks, formerly of the Colts, and Jim Haslett, formerly of the Rams. Either would be a superb choice to me.

[methodtoll]

Yeah I saw that too

I've mentioned Meeks before.. I wonder how good of a fit he would be for Carolina?

Doesn't he run a Tamp 2 defense?

[Debil]

I asked last week when he did this... he never answered the question.

[AppStatePanther]

i think he does too wasnt he a position coach under monte kiffin when dungy was there?

and for some reason i thought haslett was an offensive coach...

could be wrong

[Snake]

Really I dont know witch won I would want more and thats not cause im a happy about both.

You are thinking of Scott Linehan. He was the head coach who was the Rams OC I think. Haslett was promoted to head coach when STL. fired Linehan during the season. Haslett was the D Coordinater.

What are the chances Carolina lets Julius Peppers go; Ravens and Terrell Suggs? I'm a Denver Fan and I'm hoping one hit FA

Adam Schefter, NFL Network

Hope this isn't Josh McDaniels from Denver writing in, is it? Josh, Denver is going to have to generate a pass rush, but both those players are going to ridiculously expensive, and the Broncos defensive problems are not the type that one player can fix. Denver needs to devote the next couple of drafts to the best defensive players it can find. It has tried to sign high-priced defensive free agents -- Daryl Gardner, Kavika Pittman, Dwayne Robertson and generally it has not worked. Denver needs to go back to doing it the old fashioned way -- drafting defensive studs.

We have the players to run the true tampa 2 with Beason in the middle. We will need to upgrade the pass rush though from the front 4 and maybe add a more attacking OLB. It might be interesting to see what Meeks can do with the horses we could supply him vs the D he had in Indy.

[Kettle]

seems like he only had an hour to answer questions

I'd take Meeks over Haslett if Fox wants to keep the Tampa 2 scheme. Beason is perfect for this scheme at MLB. If Pep still wants to leave, we can trade him for a chance to draft Peria Jerry/DT/Ole Miss, who would be a perfect fit for this scheme on the DL, and a good complement to Kemo. Charles Johnson and Hillee Taylor could excel in this scheme also. If we could get an OLB that attacks, like you said, this defense has the potential to be tough again.
