I would compare Wilks coaching success to Darnolds recent play at qb. Take that how you will. They are both in situations where they arent asked to do too much and they are doint a pretty good job at it. My question though, is that enough for you?

He made some great throws/reads sprinting to his right with defenders chasing him throwing across his body back to the middle of the field in a full run that the receivers dropped. I believe it was Ian Thomas that dropped them both.

I hate this point trying to be pushed all the time. Every great qb ever was available with the first pick. As you go further in the draft less and less great qbs were available. Having more options earlier is always going to be better. Can a team pick the wrong player? Of course, but the earlier you pick the better odds the right pick was available.

Why wouldnt they have his back right now? Also hes a pretty decent college coach.

That's just who Wilks is as a coach. Hes a good leader and motivator but that's about it. Hes not going to out scheme someone or be known for making adjustments. Hes said as much in every interview. These are their "strengths" and that's what they're going to do.

Classic panthers playbook. Lose enough to where the games dont really matter, then win some pointless ones so the games start to matter again and tank the once promising looking draft position, and then implode. It happens more years than not.

Terrible playcalling

Darnold running for his life every play. Oline cant handle the rush nor run block today.

Yea not questioning you just saying its silly. So a personal foul penalty hurts way less on a play that picks up a first down than all others for basically literally no reason.

That's ridiculous as soon as the play is over the new play starts. The play clock instantly resets. I'm not sure how the penalty affects the down and distance in every other situation.

Yea I'm not sure how it wasnt first and goal from the 22. The penalty came after the play when they picked up the third down so it made it first down, then on the new set of downs the 15 yard penalty should have been added to the new downs.

Ankle injury

Chinn should never be a coverage safety

Mack Brown?

So with all that said your answer was both. Being a good leader is very important and hes also really good at scheming.

Definitely, I really wish they would stop this Chinn as coverage safety experiment. He made a couple really good plays on the ball last game but most plays they were picking on him. Hes an ok player in coverage and a great one in the box, I have no idea what they're thinking besides the fact Wilks has always been the one adamant about him playing coverage safety.

Panthers are notorious as a franchise for taking the safe route and never winning a superbowl. We take one risk on a coaching staff that goes badly and everyone instantly panics to go back to super safe route.

I feel like you are clearly trying to push your opinion in your phrasing. Of course it depends on who the other coach is, for example I would definitely take Steichen over Wills and a select couple others, without a doubt. Is it a slightly more risky option? Definitely. Is there more potential to be a great team by taking the risk? Probably.

Most likely the bengals game was thrown out almost entirely. Win probability doesnt start at 50% if a good team is going against a bad team and it doesnt count any plays after probability is 80% to lose or 20% to win or whatever so after we went down a td or so the rest of that game was probably thrown out entirely lol

I think the Seahawks win was his first real signature win. Everything else was against fairly bad teams and we cant forget that bengals game. I think he definitely helped his chances with the seattle game, and I definitely think we could do worse. He has been pretty impressive as a leader. All that said I also think we could do better. I think he is a high floor low ceiling candidate. So a safe choice but I'm not sure hes a coach who could take us to a perinneal playoff team. I see him as a Rivera type coach. Definitely a big step up from the last one though.

Watch DJ run routes when hes just going through the motions. That's why. The best wide receivers never do that.

It's a risk, it always is to say sometimes it doesnt work out so you shouldnt do it though is silly. If you trust your scouts and GM then you always want to have more options of players to pick and the top ones are usually coming in with a couple elite traits. It's silly to say that because it doesnt always work out that you want less players available to pick from.

College football has basically turned into professional sports but with no salary cap or luxury tax. It's going to kill college football in a few years if they dont change some rules to balance it out. I definitely think kids should get paid but they are going to have to change some things.

Jackson has been a "good" qb in his years so far. Not great like a lot of people want to think by his highlight plays. If you just look at his statistics against good teams and in the playoffs; they are very bad. He has been a qb that feasts on bad teams mostly at this point in his career so far.

I guess a better way for me to put it. If you look at our overall roster we have a lot of talent. We just have some clear holes om the roster. We have beat teams I would say we have more talent than and have lost to the teams that have more talent than us. I just think Rhule was so bad he made us look worse than we were.
