This was Chud's last Panther year regardless.

Chud was not going to be a member of the Carolina Panthers after 2013 anyways.

We suck, he is gone with everyone else.

We're good, he is almost certainly gone to be a HC somewhere.

Timing. is. everything.

Question is this...

If we don't drag our feet with hiring Gettleman, and JR doesn't give Rivera a promise of one more year.

Does Gettleman keep Rivera a week or two ago, if he knows Chud/Norv are gone?

Do we just clean house now, to avoid the potential of Cam have 3 OC's in 3 years?

Heard that on the radio this am. I don't think we necessarily dragged our feet hiring a gm. For our top two candidates we had to wait until the season was over before we could ask permission to speak with them. Maybe JR could have cut his vacation short I guess might have sped things up a little.

Keeping Rivera has nothing to do with Chud or Norv leaving. After last year and with the number of vacancies out there, it was predictable that Chud would get a HC job. Unlike people here, elsewhere he is held in high esteem. So losing him was surely a possibility. Secondly, Norv maybe a good proponent of the Coryell system but he is hardly the best offensive mind out there and as a head coach isn't exactly stellar. He has the same history as Rivera when it comes to having to pull off late season finishes to save his bacon.

Truth is that depending on the relationship between Shula and Newton, he might be a good guy to promote. Then make Scott Turner the QB coach. It would keep the continuity and I suspect we would be fine.

Then again I would be fine with many of the guys named as possibilities. What I do know is that Newton is bright enough to flourish in other systems and we have the personnel to be successful. I do hope we continue using a coryell system and make use of tight ends given that really does play to our strengths. And of course emphasize the running game more.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
