How Much Does The Defense Change Under Coach Wilks?

I'm just praying this is the end of the "ooh we have a 1 point lead prevent D" McDermott and Rivera seemed to love.

I hate to say it but, probably not too much of a difference. My hope is that he is a little more aggressive than McDermott.

I expect we will be more aggressive in some areas and less in others.

I expect us to play more man underneath and either cover 2 or cover 1. This is generally considered more aggressive than playing a soft zone and keeping everything underneath which is exactly what a prevent defense does.

On the other hand I expect Wilks to use less blitzing and more of a tradition 4-3 defensive scheme which is less aggressive but also.less risky. McDermott was more of a high risk high reward kind of coach. I also expect Wilks to be less rigid and more flexible than McDermott.

    • Would absolutely love to have him. I dont think he would require more than a 5th rounder. The biggest thing with his contract is the amount of guaranteed money. As long as they can work out and scenario where the Panthers aren't on the hook for a lot of that, I think it's a no-brainer. The Panthers can come up with $20M at the drop of a hat with restructuring Moton's contract, so there definitely isn't an issue from a money perspective. Jaycee paired with Ramsey along with Mike Jack would give us one of the best CB groups in the league. The one caveat I see is that safety still remains our biggest current weakness. We need a starting caliber S more than CB, simply put. But adding someone like Ramsey would be amazing as long as the compensation made sense. Ramsey could also play for FS snaps also. I also dont understand this nonsense about being seasons away. We have a QB on a rookie deal who was playing at an elite level to end last season. Within reason, now is absolutely the time to make moves like trading for Ramsey.
    • He'd be a huge upgrade for this year, but we're still not going to be contenders with him and I'd rather keep the cap space to roll into next season to spend on a younger player who can be an impact starter for us for the next 3-5 years while we're hoping to contend.
    • Because playoff hockey and regular season hockey aren’t the same thing.  It’s a combination of the game intensity being dialed up with loose officiating.
