Should the Panthers Head Coach Search Slowik Down?

What Panthers fan wouldn't want this type of staff in Charlotte? Given the fact that the Panthers have already completed a virtual interview with Slowik, there is hope.

Should Panthers Fans Tepper Expectations, or Has The Temper Been Squashed?

This rebuild will not be completed in a single offseason, so draft choices and free-agent acquisitions must be tailored to that vision. Otherwise, it's all for naught. We've seen this twice already with the Rhule and Reich coaching hires happening with existing general managers already in place. Furthermore, the pair needs to live and die together.

Jaycee Horn's Hamstring Injury May Require Surgery

Jaycee Horn went down in the first half of Carolina’s opening game against the Atlanta Falcons. It was a non-contact injury that Frank Reich reported Horn knew immediately that it was severe, noting a “pop.” Reich hesitantly discussed the matter, noting that they were still evaluating the injury and suggesting that Horn is seeking second opinions. Grade three hamstring tears sometimes come with a popping sensation and require surgery for ideal recovery. The timeline to return to sporting-like activities is 16-24 weeks.

With the team noting surgery is on the table, Horn likely suffered a full tear. This would sideline Horn likely for the remainder of the season. This would make for the 3rd consecutive season where Horn suffered a signifcant injury.
