The Coach we need

Ok all, why are we so impatient when it comes to getting our next coach? I know we all want to find out who’s going to lead our team into next year, but aren’t the best coaches this season still coaching? We all know the Panthers so far have interviewed nothing but defensive coordinators to this point. Let’s just give it a little longer until some of the playoff teams start to drop out and their coaching staffs are available for interviews.

I am looking for some action a few days after the NY Jets drop out of the playoffs. It’s been mentioned several times throughout this season that Brian Scohettenheimer would be a good replacement for Fox and I still agree… he would be a great coach for the Panthers. Look at his history, he was the quarterbacks coach and helped out Philip Rivers in his first two years with the Chargers. He has also worked with Drew Brees, Chad Pennington, Bret Farve and Mark Schanchez. Sounds like a nice list of quarterbacks to me. So the guy knows what a winning quarterback in the NFL looks like and acts like. Who better to answer the question we are facing now with our quarterback situation? No matter if you are in the Pro Clausen camp or looking for a different option. He could develop Clausen or draft a different quarterback. As an offensive coordinator of the Jets he also led the league in rushing yards per game last year with 172.3 yards per game last year. I bet the backs in Carolina would love to see this guy too and it would also help out the running game. Not to mention the line he put together last year. Look at that, not only does he know how to coach up the quarterbacks but he can add a power running game as well. You might even go so far to say he knows his team and calls the plays based on the strength of his team. Imagine that, a coach that designs plays based on his players, which would be a welcomed change. This is who my money is on for our next coach. I think if we could get him paired with Ron Rivera to be the defensive coordinator we could right the ship and have a pretty good season next year. If you don’t agree then make your case for our next coach…
