Probably, but being mad that a GM wouldn’t let him trade away future first round picks as a rookie HC for a player with Allen’s questionable college resume is dumb. Keim could have been a shitty GM, but that’s just being responsible. Also apparently McAdoo liked Allen and Mahomes. It would be reassuring to hear it from someone else like his OC or another staff member. It’s easy to say I wanted this QB (who has become a NFL star) after the fact with no data to back it up.

That’s a little different. Trading up for a player that risky without a decent offensive staff to develop him could have been franchise crippling… Trading away future firsts being off the table for a first year coach is actually smart and responsible.

Why does it matter if he wanted Allen over Rosen? Allen was selected before the Cardinals at 7 and the Cardinals picked Rosen at 10. Who did Wilks want at 10 over Rosen? Our GM wanted Herbert, but he was picked before us so it doesn’t matter…

That’s pretty different. Hackett’s team had Super Bowl run expectations and their window is now (Russ isn’t getting any younger). They are probably going to let Russ give some input into the next coach, because they are stuck with him for better or worse. Plus there isn’t a pattern for not giving white, offensive minded coaches a chance at HC. Just look at Arizona and McDaniels getting another chance in Vegas. If anything it’s the opposite. I don’t want Wilks as our HC because I feel like it just brings us back to Rivera in terms of style and being a very boring, conservative HC. However, I do think there is some substance as a whole to that lawsuit (especially if that Miami poo is true).

Levis has a lot to like. I know he had some bad games, but as you stated he had a lot going against him (OL, Weapons, OC, injuries, etc…) Is McKee really that slow? I thought I saw he was a 4.6 4.7 guy? I know that always doesn’t translate to quickness.

You high on anyone particular in this class after studying them?

Good eye. I didn’t even notice. I think Howell did the same thing right?

That KR was fast as poo. Looked like he had a whole extra gear from the guys around him.

lol my bad…

I think his confidence is ruined and a player like him lives and dies by his confidence/moxie.

15 more pounds and he is the same size as Rodgers and Mahomes. I kind of want TCU in the playoffs to see how he handles a good defense.

Both QBs have shown some toughness

This is my dream scenario.

You don’t put your 1st round pick on the practice squad unless you are prepared to lose him. I think we would roll with 3 QBs (like the Eagles are) if this happens.

Unless Wilks had a great OC (which he apparently didn't) Allen probably wouldn't have worked out. Also I wonder if he pushes for Richardson if he is our coach next year. He is the most Allen-like of the group.

Is Sam Bradford worse than Sam Darnold? Because Rhule won 5 with Sam Darnold... Bradford has about a 41.4% win percentage in the NFL. He isn't good, but he isn't a QB that leads you to the worst record in the league. I'm using examples of veteran QBs who could have used vs this rookie that struggled so much. I just think we can do better than a coach with a current win percentage of 26.1%. If that's what you want you have your bar set too low... 2017 Cardinals 8-8. Wilks takes over and they go 3-13. It's not like he had a terrible roster. Kirk, David Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Budda Baker, Hasson Reddick, Patrick Peterson, Chandler Jones, Antoine Bethea.... That shouldn't be a last place team.

Give me a break. He came in clean up duty against the Bengals and moved the ball against their prevent defense. Our OL actually doesn't suck and DJ Moore looked good again last week. These players need a good HC that can get the best out of them. Rhule had them playing terrible and now Wilks has them playing serviceable and we think he is the next best thing. I'd prefer a coach that get the MOST out of his players. Baker look much better in Cleveland. You also go to a power run game when you don't know offense and want to lean on your defense to win games. It's what Rivera always wanted to do. It's why WIlks is Rivera 2.0....

We have played this game with QBs like Darnold. Oh his OL was bad and he had a bad HC. Let's give him another chance instead of someone else their first chance. It doesn't usually end well... He had Bradford and Glennon as other options aside from Rosen. Did they suck too? Sure, but he only won 3 games. It was the lowest number of wins since 2000 for that franchise. Even Rhule managed to win 5 games with shitty QBs.

Yeah Rosen was a first round pick his staff couldn't develop or didn't scout very well. Baker has looked no better with him as he did Rhule. So what's your point? Also aren't you supposed to be banned??

I think both he and Richardson were playing injured later in the year. Both teams kind of “nerfed” their QBs with their game plans. I also noticed both were much slower getting up from hits as well.

Maybe not, but like him or not some team is going to freak out at his combine skills. If he somehow falls out of the first, someone will grab him early in the second.

Yeah the UT game kind of dropped his status a little. He had a lot going against him OL, OC, WR etc…
