Want Harbaugh? email [email protected]

If you want Harbaugh, send an email to [email protected] letting the Panthers know. JR and Danny Morrison read this email, this is the same email address I used to express my disgust with the Panthers earlier this year and within 2 days Danny Morrison called me back.

If the Panthers got a landslide of emails asking for Harbaugh, it might actually sway them. They know they need to win this fanbase back, they are vulnerable right now so let them know how you feel!

Here's what I sent:

To whom it may concern,

As a die-hard Panthers fan, I would really like to see us hire Jim Harbaugh as our next head coach and then draft Andrew Luck with the # 1 overall pick. Our biggest problem this year has been our lack of offense, specifically a passing game and I think Harbaugh/Luck would address this as effectively as anything else out there. Hiring Harbaugh would most likely lure Luck into declaring himself eligible for the draft and that means our new coach could draft his franchise quarterback to build the team around. Harbaugh also has had prior relationships with both Steve Smith and John Kasay who are the most veteran leaders of our team and it will be important for a new HC to win the hearts and minds of our players through these veteran leaders. My nightmare scenario is that someone else hires Harbaugh (like Denver) and then Luck pulls an “Eli Manning” on us and demands to be traded to Denver once we draft him. John Elway, the new VP of football operations for the Broncos did this himself, so I’m sure he would support Luck doing this as well.

Thank you for taking the time to read this, I think the hiring of Harbaugh and the drafting of Luck would breath life back into the Panthers and generate allot of excitement among our fan base.

I don't really want this organization listening to fans to be honest. I believe Harbaugh to be a great candidate but there are considerations and things I don't see, being a fan. So, ultimately, I put a degree of trust in the organization.

This. If they listened to the fans we would have signed Webb, Orton, Thigpen, or any other QB who played a semblance of a good half. Let the organization do their job. If you don't like it, write them a letter after or stop purchasing their product.

I trust the organization, but it never hurts to ask for what you want as a consumer.

Nobody even knows if Luck is going to declare. Would you want Harbaugh, even if we don't get Luck? That is the question.

I think there is a 0% chance Luck stays in school if Harbaugh comes to Carolina....however I'll play your game. Yes I would, I love Harbaugh's fire, passion for the game and his competitive desire to crush the opposition....see USC's game last year, game against UCLA, ND etc etc.....

All I'm saying is, if you want something then be heard... I doubt they would make any football-related decision based solely on fan feedback but it could be a factor in their consideration.

It shouldn't be. Fans don't make decisions for a reason (hint: most of the decisions we'd have made over the last few years would have been very bad)

Think of what kind of training camp that would be, though!

Certainly Harbaugh could find some kind of quarterback between all of last year's rookies, Orton, Thigpen, Moore, and McNabb.

Oh, and Hasslebeck.

Edit: I'm missing someone, but who?? hmm... OH! Vick!

    • I mean you can always talk good or bad in just about everything. 8 wins and leading poo mountain, this rookie class is a big reason. Think about no Tmac or Dan Morgan didn't make that trade to gain a future 2nd rounder. So after Pat Jones breaks his back, DJ " who's not on any roster or PS" Johnson would be starting. Gods knows how bad they already are- 32nd in sacks/pressure/PDs etc... Sure Prince, Trevor, Cam, and little Jimmy haven't done too much, but they are still here.  Honestly its not smart or wise to judge rookies, *unless pro-bowl or cut. Lets revisit this next year, there are slump sophomore years and the biggest jump in players careers most times happens in the 2nd full off-season. You see who wants to be NFL pro and who's happy with teppers checks. I know many of them will be getting surgeries, got to see how they attack that as well....Tmac is playing hurt currently, if they were out of the race, he would be IR'd and maybe half the rookie class as well....I thought Cam was headed for the IR. 
    • It actually looks pretty solid.  A few players to re-sign and three primary positions to upgrade (starters).  Beyond that, we don't have a bunch of holes or need to overpay free agents. this is how I see it (using OTC for the 2026 roster information) on December 22, 2025.  This is rather basic, focusing on the core needs. Blue: Potential players to re-sign in the offseason.  Green: Players under contract for the 2026 season.  Italics: Possible cap casualties Analysis   Offense:  Center:  First, sign Mays for the long term (He is 26–I’d give him a 3-4 year deal).  He is not great, but he is decent and we need consistency on the OL. He does not make stupid mistakes. While the draft is not great in the interior offensive line, signing a veteran who can backup G and C would be a strategy.   Guard:  Canalas seemed to be impressed with Curhan, as I was.  He will be 28 next year, so he has a few years in him. I think he comes cheap and is quality depth.  He can play center, but is perhaps best at G and T.  Valuable reserve.   Tackle:  While Nijman returns as the swing T behind Moton and Ekwonu, the Panthers need to start developing a RT to play behind Moton.  A late-round draft pick that is rough but has all the tools is ideal. As the fourth OT, he can develop behind some pretty good veterans.   Wide Receiver:  We need a playmaker to play opposite TMac.  I believe in Coker, but think he is the AT-type slot. He needs to be re-signed. XL cannot be counted on to step into that role.  He is not that familiar with the WR position and he does not seem to be a student of the game.  This is a strong WR draft. First or second round.   Tight End:  I dunno.  I can see us upgrading the position, but Tremble does a lot of stuff well aside from catching the ball.  Evans is a decent all-around TE, and Sanders has some upside.  I’d love a weapon, but add the WR.   Running Back:  If Dowdle wants to be here, how do you let him walk?  He will be 28, and most RBs hit the wall then.  He deserves a big contract, but 28-year old RBs on big deals don’t earn them.  Go with Hubbard, Brooks, and Etienne.  Build the OL and the backs get better.   Quarterback:  Well, Bryce is improving and his confidence is growing.  Look at how many other QBs have taken time to get it. He is going to be the QB, regardless.  I want a young QB behind him, not the Red Senior Citizen.     Overview: Free Agent Priorities are to re-sign Mays and Coker.  I have Dowdle in blue, but I would let him walk (for reasons provided).  Cuhran played well and is versatile and should be signed if possible.  Draft a developmental OT, a raw, late-round OT.  In the draft, take a WR in rounds 1 or 2.  The offense is in tact–little needs to be done.  Let the OL develop chemistry, sign Mays while he is entering his prime, and get a weapon opposite TMac.  Give Coker a long-term deal.    Defense: ILB;  With only Wallace on the 2026 payroll, this position needs to be addressed.  Rozeboom might be able to be re-signed. I think ILB will be addressed in free agency and the draft. ILB will be the second or third round pick.  We will re-sign Rozeboom and maybe Cherulus and another priority free agent.   Edge/OLB: Scourton seems to be the real deal, but Princely (needs to develop) and Jones II are role players.  The draft is LOADED at the edge rush position.  I expect a first or second round edge player to be taken.   Defensive Tackle:  We have some big salaries at DT, and with Brown on the field, you dont need stars beside him.  I think the team cuts Robinson to get $8.5m in cap room, especially since C Jackson seems to be ready.     Cornerback:  Morgan has done a tremendous job finding talent in the bargain bins at CB.  Smith-Wade has been very solid.  Thornton seems to be a find.  Mike Jackson is a solid pro.     Safety:  Ransom seems to be the heir apparent for the Scott job, and Moehrig gives them a very aggressive, violent pair of safeties.  I like the safeties in this draft, fwiw.  I expect a late round pick.   Overview:  The Panthers must address ILB and Edge as priorities.  The ILB could be a free agent, Rozeboom re-signing, and maybe a draft pick. However, they need a pass rush more than anything else.   This is a great draft for edge players; I would not be surprised to see Dan Morgan double dip at edge.  Depth at S.   As soon as the season is over, look for Morgan to re-sign Mays, Coker, Cuhran, and possibly Rozeboom and Dowdle.  That would lock up the starting C, #3/slot WR, versatile depth on the OL, and get your leading tackler back at ILB.  Three HUGE moves that sould not break the bank.   Free agency would be focused on adding an ILB and a Safety who can play FS in three-S or big nickel sets. The draft would target Edge, WR, and ILB on days 1 and 2. Day 3:  OT depth, S depth, ILB depth.  
    • Seattle is coming across country to our house which will be packed.  We can beat this damn team.  Agree @TheBigKat the team has improved tremendously from last season
