Tuesday was a big day for the Carolina Panthers, as they officially introduced Frank Reich as their new head coach. But it was also a big day for the team’s fans, who are ready to finally have something to cheer for.
So, how are they feeling already?
Here are some of the Carolina faithful’s best reactions to Reich’s presser.
This hire is being handled differently than Rhule. Feels bigger

Really excited about the Coach Reich era.
Let’s get a QB and compete.

Reich is bringing back the Keep Pounding mantra, which was missing under Rhule.
I’m in. All in.

Sounds like Reich and Stroud/AR would be a PERFECT pairing

Hiring Frank Reich feels like a breath of fresh air, like we’re moving forward. We all love Steve Wilks, me included – I just ultimately don’t think he was the answer for our team long-term. Excited for the future, but I’m also not going in with unreal expectations. I’m hopeful.

After listening to Reich speak I’m even more excited. Retaining Campen and Tabor was huge. Getting Fangio would’ve been great but Im excited to see what the DC and OC hires will be pic.twitter.com/F1aNim8b5s

Fitt and Reich will bring a Super Bowl to Carolina, I believe that.

Reich’s press conference was good. Excited to build a winner in Carolina. #KeepPounding

Frank Reich was the right hire for where we are right now.
There may have been more than one right answer, but there could only be one choice.
Nobody can guarantee success, but a prudent decision was made by Tepper and Co.

Frank Reich said everything I wanted to hear. Feel really good about the direction of the #Panthers under his leadership. There’s a reason why he’s been a successful HC and we can see a little bit why.
If they can nail QB position, they’re set.

That presser with Coach Frank Reich was all substance and no fluff. Very detailed description of the offensive philosophy he wants to use. Very detailed description of the type of QB he wants (Stroud or Richardson). Enjoyed his five qualities of greatness from a player. pic.twitter.com/3PGLycyySh

Love this. Shows these guys are invested and Reich is right there with them. Been a Panthers fan since 04 and i have never been this excited for a new coach https://t.co/4YZd06BfKr
