This occurred to me as soon I saw they parted with their whole defensive staff.

 

Kind of makes you feel as if we should just go ahead and cut bait with McDermott and promote Wilks since McDermott is going to be gone eventually for a HC job.

 

That's a gamble though. You can't really tell if Wilks is any good and you may be able to bait him to stick around with a phony "Head Assistant" job and the aforementioned knowledge of McDermott leaving soon anyways.

It can be argued Wilks pretty much runs Panthers' practices so there is that much.  But yeah, a lot of teams throw around the AHC title.

Assistant HC is just a title guys.

Panthers would not block this move.

There's zero chance they wouldn't block it. Rivera knows at some point McD will get a HC job and Wilks is in line to replace him as DC and he was also Rivera's initial choice for DC but was blocked from being hired here then.

      "Floor, not Ceiling" - between the hashmarks

      I don’t know about floor in a team defense sense but we needed more.  The floor that I am familiar with is our QBs floor and it is so low that every other part of the team needs to be beefed up.     We tried our best to improve these things and I think we did improve the defense and we at least kept the offense  from sinking from no LT.  And ostensibly helped the receivers too.   So we kept a window open that we at least have a chance to improve our record by a game of two.  Which would probably give us the division.

      Yeah. I am one of. those who think a JAG RB can eat with really good blocking. (Brooks is most important in my mind, in tbe passing game and that is what we’ll lose without him)  There are a lot of aspects to this. The big one that caused us to struggle is Young and his arm scared no one.  Best back, best blocking still cannot defeat a really good defense if they are not forced to respect the pass.  And teams did not.    But, a strong OL and running game Can get us over against weaker defenses.  And if Bryce still doesn’t scare anyone we can still win some games. Like last year  So it is really important to tend to that OL.   Get that straight and see if in his fourth year he can finally back defenses off. That is what if is all about this year to me, on the Bryce front.
