Morris is not hc material but damn I'd be happy with him as our DC.

Evero was one of Morris' guys in LAR (just one year) so we do have a personnel and plenty of players he's familiar with.

But for people who aren't fans of what we've been doing philosophically, then you probably don't want him.

I think they hire Joe Brady. Idk why but can totally see it.

I think that is a good prediction.

Couple of things to consider. If they fired gm Terry Fontenot as well, then it means an entire new regime. They don't have a 1st round pick either. QB is a real question, especially with a new administration coming in. They will have to lean on their defense which did have a good year overall.

The defense has gotten alot better keeping the same philosophy but in better hands is a win win. Just need to add a few finishing pieces

Morris is a lot more aggressive than Evero though and will actually run man coverage. 
 

Gus Bradley is also a candidate, knowing Dave and Dan from Seattle. Leslie Frazier also has Seattle and Buffalo connections.

But really I think if Evero left they would just promote Todd Wash.

Damn the Falcons didn't waste any time firing folks . Forget waiting until Monday.

True, Evero's thing has been Cover 2 and 3 heavy.  

Playcalling wise, more simulated pressures than actual blitzes.  Tends not to offer many real well-timed blitzes when they do happen.

I think he's a good coach, came from a few great trees and seems to be a smart dude-- but as a playcaller, I find a lot to be desired.

I feel bad for Morris.  He seems like a genuinely good guy and his players are to love him.  But, some decisions are hard to justify - like starting Penix over Cousins and it essentially costing them the season.  All that being said - I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE HIM AD OUR DC.  He’s a great one.

Yeah, sticking with Penix probably cost him his job. They probably win the division with Cousins.

Definitely  cost him fr!!

Raheem Morris is the only coach in like a decade to get the Panthers into the playoffs and they fired him for it. Best coach we have had around here since John Fox. What a shame.

I mean who knew that an 8th year senior in the pac 12 with glass knees wasn’t gonna work out?  Hindsight is 50/50

I'd still trade him for our guy. lol

four game win streak to end the season and send the Carolina Panthers to the playoffs and NFC South division

and also weakening the falcons draft positions simultaneously
