Truly a great insider video on our new DC. It will be interesting to see him this coming season. You can see the passion and dedication he has with his players. Almost feels like he's a father figure to these young players. Great choice.

The way he was on Bradberry tho. That right there, is the reason he developed into one of the top rookies this seasons. I can't wait for him to get in there with ALL the units in the defense and light a fire in them. 

Agreed.

Wilks is a fundementals guy who teaches technique and basic hand and body positioning. He won't be flashy and don't expect a bunch of gimmicks and scheming to win on defense. From what I have seen he will stress being sound in your technique, knowing where you are at all times, and execution which in the end is always much more important than playcalling particularly on defense where you are reacting to the offense. It will be interesting whether there will be less blitzing or more under Wilkes. Don't really know but my first take might be less.

    • One thing about it, he's not thinking about retiring. I found it odd that some Huddlers were taking rumors and running with them, imagining a slow down and "up-playing" injuries. Moton feels great and is still in his prime according to him, and his game is still indicative of his thoughts.  Sure, it may ultimately come down to economics, but I am sure that everyone involved is motivated to keep him in Charlotte.
    • I think the knee stuff with Moton has been blown way out of proportion. The exact quote was “It’s chronic stuff. Most linemen deal with it. But it’s just figuring out what we can do to make sure it’s limited and I’m still able to explode off it, which right now I can and I feel like I can in the future,” After a while, you start learning more about it and what can we do to make sure it’s as little of an issue as possible. I feel like I’m moving like I was when I was younger.” I don't view that as a guy who's saying his knees are on their last leg I see that as a 10-year NFL olineman saying that obviously after 10 years of playing a really physical sport, he's never truly gonna be 100% healthy again and he's gonna need to spend more time with the training staff to ensure his body can continue to perform at a high level. I think Moton has another 3 to 5 years left if he wants to continue playing.   
    • So much crying. Tiresome. All of you should have had enough time to come to terms with the team picking up his 5th year...
