With the Panthers firing Frank Reich, I feel like a golden opportunity has just opened up. While his last two HC jobs weren’t a great success (not entirely his fault IMO), he’s an offensive minded coach with tons of experience. Should we try to land him as our new OC?
My guess is that we won’t end up doing this (because it’s always a better bet to take the field).
But I think when we make an outside hire, it’s not uncommon for us to take a failed HC who was very good as an OC/DC.
Haley and LeBeau both fit this mold.
