With Frank Reich having one of the hottest seats in the NFL, who would you like to see as HC for the Panthers?

Personally, I would like Jim Harbaugh - setting aside the situation in Michigan…I think he would bring a swagger to the Panthers that we haven’t seen in years now.

    Ben Johnson or any up and coming OC from the Shannahan Tree.

    The system is too good and I think Bryce would thrive there

      It’s a player driven league. You can have a good system and bad players and the system looks bad.

          Show me how it’s not a player driven league, since you say you can prove it false.

          Not 100% sure what the original commenter is arguing, but roster talent is absolutely more important than coaching.

          A top qb alone is worth 6-7 wins, a top coach is worth ~3 (according to an MIT study). And if great coaches could elevate terrible talent, then Belichick wouldn’t have 2 wins, Kyle Shanahan wouldn’t have had top 5 picks his first two years, Bill Walsh wouldn’t have won 2 games his first year, etc.

        Mcvay is eating with “Tutu Atwell” and has a 5th rounder on pace for best rookie season ever for a WR. I would say the system can help with not having elite talent

          That’s still the player, not the system. Someone’s draft status doesn’t mean anything.

          By your logic, Tom Brady taken in the 6th round must be because of the system he played in.

            lol. You have a better chance of winning the power-ball than hitting on another Tom Brady in the 6th round.

            Puka has talent but there’s a reason he went in the 5th. He’s not fast, but has succeeded in his role in the Mcvay system. Scheme matters in the NFL.

              You’re missing the point, which is draft status doesn’t mean anything. 1st round players have almost a 50% bust rate.

              Scheme matters, but it’s a player driven league. If you don’t have good players, the scheme means nothing. That’s why teams have to have a QB (player) to make a run. No QB, you’re not making a run.

          They won 5 games last year, are likely to miss the playoffs again this year, have a top 10 QB, and have Cooper Kupp. Not entirely sure this is a great argument for “system > players”
