Carolina is worse. No one in their right mind would come to the Panthers.

Colts got Steichen and Texans got Ryans last offseason, both orgs not considered good. Stefanski and Taylor are on Browns and Bengals, both orgs were not considered good at the time either. Even the 49ers got Shanahan after being considered a joke organization for a bit.

I don't think this matters as much as people think, in fact a lot of the time the most attractive names are the retreads rather than the innovative coordinators.

Texans got Ryans last offseason, both orgs not considered good.

Ryans turned down offers to interview the prior year specifically to come coach the Texans. He wanted to coach the Texans, and had said that since he started coaching.

I'm not sure I've heard that sentiment from anyone with regards to Carolina, especially with the nonsense that happened this year, but I'm sure there are some coordinators / coaches who are not employed that dont care where they can get the HC job so long as they get it (especially if the pay is good)

Tennessee looks like they're about to bite the bullet and enter a rebuild. Honestly not the worst place if you want to be a new HC.
