NFL Coaching / GM News

[Snake]

The longer this goes on the less likely that is. There are a lot of coaching vacancies and the blue chip coaches are going to go fast. I think our entire organization is smart enough to know that replacing Rivera without a clear upgrade would be a terrible idea so every day is a little more job security for him. If the GM thing goes into next week I think the best we can hope for is another year of exactly what we have with a mandate of playoffs or you're fired. I'm really hoping he learned his lesson with Fox and won't put us through another "let him play out his contract and just don't renew him" situation.

As for someone knowing something that's really unlikely unless that person is Tom Sorensen and if he knows he's not talking. We have the most media-phobic organization in history.

What I worry about is that the longer we don't get a GM the more likely Beane will be our GM...

I'm kinda trying to block that possibility out of my mind.

I'm hoping there's no way we hired Accorsi and then will promote Beane.

Most of the GM spots aren't going to have anything happen but interviews up through the end of the week. Everyone needs to be patient about this. It's better to make the right decision and put the correct people in charge, then just to make a change for changes sake.

[Awesomeness!!]

I like the fact that JR is waiting and thinking things over. Teams like the Jags and Browns suck because they so things in the heat of the moment. If Rivera is the best we can do, then so be it. If Beane is the best we can do, then so be it.

[DaCityKats]

if beane is the best the panthers can do, then this team is in trouble.

[Coheed]

No.

[Mr. Scot]

Beane is definitely not the best we could do.

Compared to that of the other candidates, his resume' is a joke.

It's be like making a baggage handler the CEO of an airline.

[Mr. Scot]

I think he will be fired. But somebody must know something.

Not if there's nothing to know.

If Richardson really is going to leave it to the new GM (and I think he is) then everything is unsettled at this point.

[Jai.]

An awful lot of gossip!

[Mr. Scot]

Albert Breer theorizes that Kelly's looking to make the jump to the NFL now because the NCAA is about to bust Oregon for violations.

I can't disagree with that.

Is no news good news for Rivera? Would seem to be the case. But talked to folks today who said Richardson does things his own way.

JJR might be doing GM search first as matter of convenience or b/c he wants that person to have a say in Rivera's future.

Joe Person literally uses the most words possible to say absolutely nothing.

I have no where to put this, but think it's hilarious.

I chalLange @WHOISJPP or Julius peppers to a game of 1 on 1 loser declines their probowl invite since I don't have one #don'tbescared
