It’s no secret that the 2023 Carolina Panthers are off to a slow start under Frank Reich. The team has won just one of the twelve games that he has coached so far dating back to the preseason…

    Imagine a coach being fired mid season and immediately being hired after one year. Like the dude didn’t join another team and learn something new. The reason he was fired in Indy is the same reason he will be fired in Carolina.

    Since the arguments against him are pretty clear, I will say that we knew he wouldn’t be winning us games, at least not yet. He’s here for Bryce. I could go either way on him, on the one hand he has been bad so far, on the other, as long as he’s helping Bryce we should hold on to him

    I mean, the evidence is mounting that it doesn’t matter who the head coach and GM is if you have a bad owner

    Take it from someone who would have a Lions/Browns dual flair if Haslem wasn’t such an idiot to sign Watson…although Shelia seems to have righted the ship at least somewhat…

      About as uninspiring as their NBA counterpart hiring Steve Clifford. The only difference is that they had a deal with a good candidate before it fell through at the last second and they made an emergency hire.

    If it’s true that ownership forced the top pick, then I can’t help but feel awful for Reich — who had Luck retire on him and now this.

    Granted the panthers have horrible luck, but I thought Reich was a good coach? Was Andrew Luck really the secret the whole time?

    I do think you gotta give these guys some time, the most successful teams in the nfl usually have coaching consistency. But trading for the first pick never seems to work out, and it seems very odd with the draft of qb’s coming up this year.

    He absolutely could. The Panthers are terrible. CJ is clearly the QB of the draft and they gave up multiple first to get Bryce. That was his call. He has to own it. Losing tonight to a struggling Bears would be a huge blow to his ability to stay there.
