Major Game-Day Change For Carolina Panthers

There's a major game-day change for the Carolina Panthers.  Head coach Frank Reich is giving up play-calling duties.

The news was leaked on social media Monday.  Offensive coordinator Thomas Brown will take over play-calling beginning with the Panthers game against the Texans Oct. 29.  Reich confirmed the game-day change at the team's news conference later that day.

"It's always been part of the plan," Reich said.  "Something Thomas and I have discussed from the time that he was hired.  I'm excited for this for Thomas. I'm excited for our team on offense.  Thomas is a stud.  He's a great leader.  He's a brilliant offensive mind.  We all have a lot of confidence in him."

According to ESPN.com, Reich said the decision to step away from play-calling was "100 percent (his) decision from start to finish."

The Carolina Panthers are 0-6 on the season.  They are also the last winless team in the NFL.  Team officials hope placing Brown in the play-calling slot will spark the Panthers to their first win.  The 37-year-old Brown has been a candidate for several head coaching positions in the NFL.  He was previously assistant head coach of the Los Angeles Rams.

The Carolina Panthers are enjoying a bye week and will return to action against Houston Oct. 29.

Now, I know you read this title and wondering who made the list. Well, football season is my favorite time of the year. When it comes to the weekends, I am ready to enjoy days' worth of games. We've got high school games on Fridays, colleges on Saturdays, and NFL on Sundays and Mondays. It's the perfect lineup for always having something to watch. But, I am still a woman, so I may be enjoying the sport but you can't miss the way some of these men look. You can't help it! Sometimes, the eye candy is just beyond undeniable. So, what led us here?

I decided since I am now a Charlotte resident, I had to get a bit more familiar with the Carolina Panthers. I didn't grow up a Panthers fan, but you can't really get away from the Panthers when you live right here in the city. This list is my own personal examination of some of the most attractive Panthers' players. We're talking about a range of positions just going down the entire roster and I am picking my top 6. Whew, this shall be fun! If you agree, tell me and if you think someone else should be in the top 6, share that too! This is just a fun list I decided to curate for all of the women out there who may be intrigued by some of these men! Check out below my top 5 most attractive Carolina Panthers players for 2023.

Now, I could not really do this in order of fine to most fine. So, we're just going to list them off. Starting off with the fresh meat, it's Bryce Young. You may not think Bryce is cute, but I do. Bryce Young is the starting quarterback for the Panthers for this season and was the first round draft pick in the NFL this year. We're excited to see what Young brings to the team this year. They may have lost the first game, but we'll see where things go from here.

Up next, is Jeremy Chinn. He plays safety for the Carolina Panthers and is one fine piece of man to look at. He is 25 years old, 6'3'', and over 200 lbs. Sounds pretty good to me, right? Just take a look at this photo from his Instagram. Yeah, he certainly had to make the list.

LaBryan Ray is up next on the list. He is a defensive end for the Carolina Panthers for the 2023 season. Ray is 25 years old and 6'4''. He once played for the New England Patriots but is a Panther now. Not only is he attractive, but he has a bit of extra swag when it comes to his fashions.

We're heading to the tight ends now with Tommy Tremble. Tremble is a tight end for the Carolina Panthers and one of the most attractive. He is in a relationship and engaged (for those who are using this list for other things, lol).

He is on this list, but he's one of the best smiles in the entire NFL to be honest. Ikem Ekwonu is an offensive tackle for the Carolina Panthers and is only 22 years old. Whew, he's a baby. He is from North Carolina, born in Matthews, NC and now playing for the Panthers. His smile is to honestly die for it's one of the top reasons he's on this list.
