CRA

we will take 3

mean, there also are flat out some things that work well with kids that are a joke to adults (and get more comical the more highly paid, the more successful, and experienced in life those people get) I always use my guy Dabo as the example. He is the textbook college football coach. It would be very problematic if he repackaged the Clemson brand and sold it to 30 year old professional athletes with families, money and life experiences post college. Rhule had zero success. And that’s why. Because the NFL and college are two totally different games. What works isn’t interchangeable. From people, to X and Os, to what actually goes in to winning. Just night and day in terms of the core formulas to win.

PJ might have to play both ways. Upset is still on.

Wilks to the team with no corner

I didn’t that comment as a reference to anyone specific though. I think 89 was simply saying that teams that find themselves where we are at…..are going to have players ask out. He would have.

Well some of it could relate more to what 89 talked about. He said 2 weeks ago is when he would have demanded out of Charlotte. so we likely have guys that want no part of a long rebuild. There window is now.

PJ special

lol. I see now. My phone keeps changing it.

? isn’t that his name?

I can deal with a 2-15 finish. I just need that one to come this week lol. Just for the PJ meme to keep rolling and give me something to carry on with.

Nah. I’m being true to what I have done prior to every PJ Walker start. Jinxing would be me being quiet on what is coming.

Nah, he has to get more than that. you aren’t going to be able to sell the guy who got us to a 4 win season conclusion off 3 back to back to back 5 win seasons as the next HC.

1. Currently the Rams are on what I believe is there 3rd string center. Protection up front a major issue. And who has suddenly been looking like a super stud? The man in the middle Derrick Brown. Few will debate that the Panthers do have defensive talent and it has been playing well? What will a Wilks D add? Likely more pressure and blitzing. Last 2 weeks, the Rams are averaging 9.5 pts per game and allowing 6 sacks a game. 2. The Rams offense is massively out of sync. It’s basically been a one man show of Cooper Kupp. Who is plagued with injury right now? Kupp. So while he is projected to play, we are getting a neutered version of the only thing that works in their O. Not to mention most believe Stafford is playing through injury as well. 3. The best player on the field Sunday is Aaron Darnold. But that’s a healthy Darnold. As the stars align for us who happens to be hampered? Aaron Darnold. So while he still projects to play, we get a weakened version of him. PJ Walker - soon to be 3-0. I mean, 8-0. Then back to the bench to hopefully never start again so he can live in Panthers lore as the GOAT. if Jalen Ramsey has 0 pass attempts his direction. We winning this thing. Just don’t do it.

I was talking about his year as HC in AZ. It’s simply isn’t enough to form a real opinion given he was saddled with a rookie QB he didn’t want. And one that we know was horrific. and as Mr Scott said, you got the wrong year when talking DC. Wilks didn’t lose DC duties. His year as DC is what lead to a HC job. We finished as the #7 D in 2017 with Wilks. 3rd in sacks.

So if Wilks pulled off some miracle 7-5 or 6-6 finish you wouldn’t want him?

I mean there have been those throws. but the bigger issue IMO overall is the fact he can’t use CMC even close to properly. Which is how you help QBs have success. yeah, Baker has blown some easy throws. But Baker overall has been in a painfully bad designed O. Baker hitting those throws he missed doesn’t change the fact McAdoo isn’t doing folks any favors. And he could.

Name a HC that would be good with a rookie Josh Rosen (that didn’t want him)? because that’s the only thing on Wilks’ HC resume. He wanted to go get Josh Allen. Ownership picked Rosen. and I don’t even look at college. He isn’t a college coach. It’s like the reverse of Rhule.

Yeah, because who wants to win. That’s not how the Panthers conduct themselves. 2-0

we haven't been attempting to run CMC every down. So it's not like we tired and failed at it. and the manner in which McAdoo has used CMC in the passing game is too basic and doesn't really take advantage of the mismatches he creates instantly off the ball if you kick him out into the slot (which McAdoo doesn't do) .

we will see, I mean McAdoo hasn't been exactly what I thought he would be. It has been worse. We are going to have to see something different from him. Maybe Wilks can get it. I do believe Rhule's thumbprint/micromanagement brought out the worst in folks. I suspect we will find out pretty quick if that is realistic or not. But if we don't see change from the O.....it's hard to see wins.

I'm sure there are variations of it as much as a BS around here. Largely I think I laid out thoughts they could get somewhere between 4 to 7 wins before the season started. I largely had after the Tampa Bay game as where and when I think Rhule would get the axe. I had a bold prediction that Wilks or Tabor might pull of more wins than Rhule lol. Which has a chance.
