Are you high? Whatever you are ingesting, you need to stop. Wilkes is a product, not a solution.

Que up the "McDermott is gonna make an impression" music.

Luke runs our defense. Nobody else.

Stupid people piss me off.

Wilks was probably pissed about how Josh Norman left

Probably was, but I was thinking that Gettleman's way in general dealing with people in the building wasn't the most popular thing. 

I bet a lot of fans would pay for the true scoop on Gettleman and his charges. @SIGCHI222 needs to scoop up some of that poo.

i mean that means Wilks isn't our DC anymore, which is a pretty big deal

We still have a handful of very important games left and are hanging on by a thread for the playoffs, nobody I'm the organization is giving any shits about thinking about this, why is it even a topic?

Gettleman will have that team back in SB contention before the end of the decade.  He'll cut the dead weight that needs to be cut, which is what he was trying to do here before the season started.  JR didn't like that though and sent him packing cause it hurt his feelings and interfered with his plan to run the team like a Hardees franchise operated by an extended family.  But hey, we kept Olsen, TD, and Gano, and JR can smile as he has them over for dinner the next few years.

Found this on my twitter timeline. Makes some sense in a way.

Have a look:

It would make sense. Then again, we've never really seen Dave with his own preferred coaching staff, considering he was benevolent enough to keep Rivera around for a little while longer.

But even so, he'd likely be comfortable around Wilks. Considering Wilks' solid football knowledge and much better personnel to execute his aggressive scheme with the Giants, it's a match made in heaven.

What say you?

Benevolence has nothing to do with it. JR decides our staff, has always been that way and is a big reasons for our mediocrity.

Man, damn. If this goes down, that means the Panthers have produced two NFL HCs, a GM, and had a GM fired to go on to get another job immediately all the while producing ZERO Lombardis. 

You'd think we'd have a trophy case to rival the Pats' the way we've been bleeding talent out of this building. 

Hmmm wonder what the common factor is year after year.

Wilks and Gettleman don't get along.  Won't happen.

Indeed.

You gotta think Wilkes would absolutely tell Gettleman to fug off if he was offered the HC position of the New York Football Giants.  Probably gonna wait on that Cleveland Browns position when it opens up.

    • I realize it about the expectations, but on paper, we drafted players who would have a chance to compete at positions where any could realistically step in and take the job---Freeling?  Yup.  Hunter?  Yup.  Brazzell?  Yup.  It is likely that all three see the field early and often.  Day 3:  Lee?  I see him as the #3 CB and the job is his when they are ready for him--and it is his to lose.  Hecht?  I loved him in mock research and called him the best C in the draft.  He might play a year behind Fortson or he could take the job--regardless, he is the obvious front runner for the 2027 season.  Wheatley?  I see Ransom and Moehrig as basically the same "in the box" type S.  If Wheatley can learn for a season behind Scott, he has the tools to be a serviceable FS, something this team needs.  Finally, Kuwatch seemed to be a PS pick, and he could be--but to win the 4th ILB job, he needs to beat out Bam Morris-Scott and with a 46.5 vertical (I can't do that on the triple jump) and a superior RAS rating, he looks like a special teamer and depth piece.....I forgot about Morgan's comment about giving up the 5th--probably to get ahead of Detroit.  Freeling has the athleticism and the tools to be the best OT in this draft.  The others lacked arm length or something like that--Freeling simply lacks a ton of experience. 
    • excellent points and insights.  I agree on Tepper.  I guess I worry that his questions and comments might influence the thinking of his employees, that his presence in the room might add pressure to an already stressful situation, but after watching it again, it does not appear to be like that.  Morgan was in charge.  Canales mentioned needing a center, but beyond that, he was there to serve as a consultant, more or less, if asked.  I suppose my point was this--everyone knew their roles, I did not see egos--I saw empowerment.  As for Morgan--I saw a leader that listened to others, made wise decisions, and never lost control.  I was VERY IMPRESSED with Dan Morgan. 
    • Pretty good summation, although I would caution just a bit that there might be a little of over-enhanced expectations. I do agree with the assessment on BPA. It was exceedingly clear they had a specific shopping list. Early on when there was some discussion about the tackles available, Morgan was asked if he was willing to give up a 5th to get Freeling, if it came to that. I think the only way it wasn't a left tackle with that 1st pick is if none that were valued as a 1st were still available.
