Pejorative Miscreant

Resign Sam? It depends. As a backup and mentor I’d consider it Draft other positions? Assuming this means not attempting to go after a qb, no.

If he can make/keep that defense strong and seriously look at the offensive philosophy in SF I think Wilks will be a great head coach. The Rivera/Fox mentality and conservatism on offense is the albatross he has to shake and he will be a great head coach. Wish him the best.

Yep. Tampa game spoke volumes to fans and evidently the front office.

Very nice hire. I’ve seen him before on TV and know the name but didn’t realize he was (or maybe just appears) so young. Hope the Panthers job is a pivotal stepping stone for him and he does good things here.

Yeah. I am all for a bigger QB and agree the wear and tear of n a smaller guy can/will impact him down the stretch but when you use certain examples in your argument that don’t hold water it’s disappointing. If a QB is 6”1 he’s made of glass but at 6”3 he is iron. Not really. That said I would ideally like a bigger QB and would give Stroud the nod over Young. If u pull the trigger on AR or Levis I hope it works out. Davis Mills, Mariota and Darnold and a lot of other NFL QBs are all 6”3 ish and we’re good in college but they probably aren’t taking you anywhere. agree with OP though. Gotta swing for some of these guys (QB, TE, LB etc..) and get them on the roster. Everyone will be flawed in some way but if you wait for perfection you’re going to be waiting.

I believe those plays coupled with the loss is what sealed Wilk's fate. We will never know for sure but if I were a betting man I would say that was it.

The problem is the algorithm to trade up to a premium spot is not in line with reality. I was able to swap from 9 to 5 by throwing in a mid and late round pick. Still fun tho

Yes. Just like I'm an uglier, older, shorter, fatter, slower diamond in the rough version of Cam

If the Raiders were willing to eat 85-90% of Carr's contract I would be willing to trade a closet full of XXL Panthers Coaching Smocks for him. Final offer and the clock is ticking. Expecting to hear back from SF anytime now...

Well, if it walks like a duck slaughter machine, and talks....

A few things grabbed my attention. 1. When asked about Indy he said they couldn’t run. Then followed up by saying “that’s on me. I’m the head coach and I’m responsible. 2. “Scott F. Sets the 53 and he decides who is active and who plays but there is collaboration” 3. It’s not a one man show. It’s a team effort. Somehow it feels like there is already a better definition and respect of roles people play within the org with him being here. Cant fully know for certain but looks like a big difference between him and the last regime.

I think the organization made a good move with Reich. Could they have done better? Probably, but time will tell. Good coaching can make this roster better and I really hope the OC/DC can make a big and early impact. Still need to address some key spots but I feel optimistic.

My unsubstantiated prediction which is not based on any rational evidence is that this will fail. Maybe not Siefert fail but it will be similar. If I’m wrong, we’ll, it will be consistent with most things I do, but I hope I’m right.

Maybe unpopular but rationale based on what the QB room currently looks like

I am sure there are legitimate instances of African Americans being passed over because of their race. I am almost as sure that the Wilks/Carolina job is not one of those instances. The attorneys might want to look at the situation and assess whether or not the Carolina job helps or hurts their argument. In my opinion you can easily poke holes in this claim.

Concerned that I didn't hear anything about the process, JZ, or not beating ourselves. Hopefully his wife and family are involved and searching for players with cool names to draft. Seriously though, its a nice departure from the used car sales tactics. No matter whether you like the hire or not, there is an adult in the room.

Wilks is a good coach and seems to be an even better person. He is a strong leader and while I don't believe he is the right coach for this team right now but he definitely has a place in the NFL. Wish him nothing but success.

I regret that Matt Rhule was ever in the position to throwCam or any professional football player under the bus.

Tank is a cool name. We should draft him. If Rhule was still here his wife would insist on it.

Props to him and the organization for doing the right thing.

I recognized the name Kafka from some distant place in my brain. Thought he was one of those guys I forgot about from psychology. Thanks for the mindful interlude.

I don’t know anything about this situation but it initially sounds like NIO has gone from kids making a few bucks to kids getting exploited and lured into making big decisions based on a mythical payday. If they don’t get on top of this soon someone else will. I can see a stripped down union lite approach coming in.
