Why Lovie Smith is just what the Panthers need.

[Jackofalltrades]

We don't need another head coach who doesn't have a clue what to do with the offense.

This.

[j2sgam]

Had never thought about, but I absolutly see the logic. I could see it, I'd really like the hire the more I think about it. Good call....

Do agree that we somebody that can handle the O. Bringing somebody new in every 2-3 years is garbage....

Who's the oc? Then ill form an opinion

[PhillyB]

i would actually be excited about this provided we brought in a competent, innovative OC willing to work with cam's strengths and build an offense around him. lovie's biggest problem during his last years with the bears was mike martz, and - admittedly this is an outsider's observation - i think it's ultimately what dragged him down.

 

get a legit OC, pair him with lovie smith, couple them both to competent drafting and roster management under gettleman, and i think you've got a perennial winner.

Lol why does zod let you make threads?

How bout lovie as a DC under an offensive minded coach. Id be all for that.

[Herbert The Love Bug]

Just get a proven NFL head coach and an offensive coordinator that has proven he knows how to use a qb like cam

Joke thread? We hate the way that Ron Rivera coaches, so let's hire Ron Rivera!

[weyco2000]

He was given plenty of time in Chicago, so no. Besides, every time I hear that name I think of a 3 hour tour.

Lol wut? The only thing Rivera and Lovie have in common is both are former D coordinators and former Bears. Lovie is an immensly better HC than Rivera. You might as well say Lovie and Singletary are the same and thats just absurd.

He chose to sit home this year instead of be a DC. He'll go to the Jets or Raiders if we don't hire him.

[toldozer]

There is no salary cap on the coaching staff. It's all about that paper not the position.

[Jmac]

Everyone is assuming RR will be gone next week....may not come to pass. It is not something that happens very often,letting a coach go after three games of a new season and we all know how slow this FO moves in making decisive decisions. So RR may have his third season regardless of what the fan base may think or want.

[OriginalPantherDan]

Lovie isn't a bad choice, but I'd like to see an OC hired this time around. Enter...Dirk Koetter. He's a hell of an innovator without being gimmicky, knows how to coach to a player's strength. Bring him in.
