The Carolina Panthers announced Sunday afternoon that they are parting ways with offensive coordinator Joe Brady. Fans responded with mixed reactions to the news.
A passing game coordinator in college with 4 first round draft picks on the offense. Who idea was this?

My respect for Matt Rhule just went up.

Being a head coach means making the tough decisions. Firing a guy you hired is never fun. He was not good at his job, therefore he needed to go.

I wanna be happy but part of me also wonders if we fired the wrong guy. All college coaching staff was doomed from the start. Would’ve liked to see Brady under Daboll or Bieniemy next year. I think Brady is the fall guy and Rhule is safe for another one. Hope I’m wrong.

Joe Brady wanted Teddy Bridgewater and hates Cam Newton. That's the only thing that would make actual sense right now.

Sigh… I was enjoying a break from @Panthers news & tweets.

Seems odd to waste a full week of the bye before making this change at OC, though maybe the actual decision was made sooner?
The bye (bye) week drama continues 👋

The firing of Joe Brady is just Matt Rhule trying to save face. Someone had to be the scapegoat. The main problem is Rhule, he is not fit to be an NFL head coach.

Joe Brady had to go tho.

The more I’m sitting here and thinking about it, the less I like it. Idk, something isn’t right about it and with Nixon calling plays it’s all Rhule’s guys. Who is going to check him? And I don’t mean Tepper. I mean on the coaching staff.
