Panthers considering holdovers from Fox’s staff

[Mr. Scot]

Yeah, that joke was funny the first ten times it got posted

(sheesh; get some new material, guys) :nonod:

[Ricky Spanish]

John Fox will be retained as OC.

don't even joke about that...

[SorthNarolina]

Magazu kept the lining playing a high level 08 and 09 no matter who was playing. Then somehow things went to hell with the exact same players.

It'll be great to have tolbert back with the younguns that will be good for their development.

I think Sam Mills III is back no matter what. I think Richardson has some secret deal with him or something because he loves Sam Mills so much. I bet he told Rivera he has to hire him. Or maybe he's super good at his job but he only wants to play for the panthers.

John Fox will retain as DC!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHEHkjaf;hsdf;kljaflkjaf:hurray:

Jeff Rodgers, he was signed on in 09 as a ST assistant then was promoted to Coordinator for this past season.

Are they looking at him?

[Jase]

bring back seifert for DC!

[Brooklyn Bully]

No Brian Baker, no care. And yes...I know he's a Tar Heel now.

Tommy Jone was just looking over the medical staff.

Glad to hear about Magazu and Tolbert, I'm sure Sam Mills III was a special request by JR. I know we're already eyeing someone else for the special teams job, but I would support bringing Jeff Rodgers back as well, I think he did a really good job. Would also like to see them bring Jim Skipper back as the running backs coach, but like others have said he may be waiting on Fox.

[Snake]

I have no problems with those two and SM3 should stay until he is ready to leave.

[therealmjl]

This is great news, all 3 should be retained. Skipper should definately be brought back as well, and I think he will once Fox doesn't get a HC position.

[Urrymonster]

Position coaches typically work independent of the coordinators.

Just to add I think they are wanting to interview some coaches still in the playoffs for the coordinator positions, so might as well get some of the pieces in place before they go elsewhere.

the scheme was much more of an issue. it was incredibly predictable and crowded the middle with blockers. it also got abused because of the schemes used against it with so much blitzing going on. no way 5 guys can block 8 with 2-3 blitzers on every play coming from every direction.

also, magazu had a lot less to work with. the right side of the field was a mess and that wasn't magazu's fault. with otah out it really screwed everything up.

True, but I think that had more to do with the QB and WR situation. Rookie QBs and rookie WRs (besides Smith) and none of them had shown anything resembling a passing attack that needed to be addressed with anything more than man coverage, allowing defenses to blitz whenever and whoever they wanted.

When your passing game sucks, everyone will put 8 in the box all day and force you into the mistakes.

Are they looking at him?

Might, not sure... Last thing I've heard in regards to the ST coach was Chris Tabor who's the ST assistant with the Bears.
