Retaining OL coach James Campen might be a good idea

James Campen, a longtime former Green Bay Packers assistant, came to the Carolina Panthers in 2022 as a well respected coach in league circles. His history as both a player and a coach were marked by successful, well coached offensive lines. That history bore fruits as the Panthers 2022 season fell apart and interim head coach Steve Wilks leaned on his unit to establish a successful running game and guide the Panthers to a 6-6 record after starting the season 1-4.

The 2022 team ranked 11th in pass block win rate and 15th (or tied for 8th, depending on how you feel about significant digits) in run block win rate, per ESPN’s Analytic Index.
