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.

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
