Sources: Panthers want Luck, won't pursue Harbaugh

this is good news to me...

The Panthers are not interested in pursuing Russ Grimm, assistant head coach of the Arizona Cardinals, who has been rumored to be a leading coaching candidate.

Regardless of whether the coordinator has an offensive or defensive background, Carolina will not try to win by running the ball incessantly and attempting to win with defense. The Panthers know the old model doesn't work.

They'll emphasize offense in general and quarterback in particular.

No to Schottenheimer. The Jets offense has been pretty bad at times and always very inconsistent. He does have a very good history of developing QB's, but no to him as a head coach.

My (non-Harbaugh) list:

1. Mike Zimmer

2. Ron Rivera

3. Sean McDermott

4. Perry Fewell

5. Mike Pettine

LUCK IS NO FOOL,he knows his coach is gone, 4 of his starting oline are seniors,new coach coming in which means new playbook and new schemes,add all that up it means he will be nowhere as productive at stanford next season than this season,and possible career ending injury? GUARANTEE LUCK IS COMING OUT

From Steve Reeds article the Panthers want a Coach who will be the public face of the franchise; A coach who is more willing to talk to the media and who is willing to do commercials etc...Russ Grimm does not fit that..I would think Harbaugh might but JR sort of shot that bubble atm-unless Danny Morrison convinces them to try and get him.

I wonder if Sorenson's "source" has talked to JR and the FO since Harbaugh beat the poo outta VT last night?

I seriously, seriously doubt it. National stage and his coaching came through very well. If we don't even interview the man, I'll be completely livid at this front office. Not much else I'll be able to do, since I still pull for our guys no matter what, but I'll not be a happy camper, that's for sure.

I wouldn't mind having a defensive coordinator as our head coach as long as he lets our offensive coordinator do his job. I hated how Fox always ran our offense. I am really interested to see who our cordinators will be and I really would like to see who our offensive line and running back coach will be considering that we already had great O-line and Rb coaches.

    • I like what Freeling brings to the table all around. If he is willing to put in the work he has an opportunity to be one of the better Tackles in the league down the line. Hunter Brazzell and Hecht are all premium additions but development from our staff are the key to unlocking them. Hopefully Lee and Wheatley will provide much needed additional depth to our secondary. Beyond that it's important not to get too caught up in draft grades. Many drafts over the years that turned out to be really good were not fawned over with praise. While some that were ended up being historical duds. Panthers fans ought to know this as well as anyone. In conclusion...
    • Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
