I think any wins are a bonus at this point, but I look forward to seeing how our players look now being utilized properly.  We will now be able to better gauge their worth and development...

Also, can't wait to finally see Burns utilized as a pass rusher on third downs instead of dropping into coverage 10 yards downfield and Chinn as a SS when he comes back.

This is exactly what we needed to finish out this season, regardless of what happens next season.

Yeah man but no Chinn needs to move back to LB. Am hyped for Wilks for sure

Chinn is a bonafide SS. That’s his natural position and playing closer to the LOS is his strength. It was rumored that Wilks and Snow were at odds over this. Can’t wait if he will use him in that capacity now that he’s the main man.

I could see Chinn being effective as a hybrid LB/SS role in certain packages but he’d be miscast in a full-time LB role. And we don’t need him there with the depth we currently have.

His rookie year he was a bonifide rookie of the year playing LB and actually making a difference. Got snubbed only b/c we're the irrelevant Panthers. So long as he's playing at the LOS instead of way back out in the middle of nowhere doing nothing it will be a good move for the Panthers and Chinns career.

Wilks and Fitt need to find a QB in the draft. Yes I think Wilks can remain hc. Trade the non-oline vet players and let's plan for the future.

There is absolutely nothing indicating Wilks should remain, he was absolutely awful in AZ, I mean sure, we go on a run and finish 13-4, by all means keep him. But barring that, I just don’t see it

Yeah if they identify a better HC option then go for it. I'm not going to stump for Wilks, but I'm not going to be terribly upset if he stays.

I agree with you on playing closer to the LOS as opposed to playing more in space, which was never his strength. Playing LB full time would not be a good long-term career move for him IMO. And unnecessary with the depth we currently have there.

He was also terrible as our DC.  I think the guy is at his level as a position coach.  There is nothing wrong with that.  He seems like a good dude who connects well with the players . . . but just not more than that.

      I understand why your brain translates "cool, calm, and collected" into a pejorative like "boring milquetoast" since you're genuinely the polar opposite of cool calm and collected, as someone who awkwardly escalates every innocuous statement into multi-paragraph performative rants as if someone just slapped your mother.  I assure you that well-adjusted people do not consider that to be an insult in the real world...not ass-backwards Internet Land where it's cool and trendy to be a Debbie Downer and being "too positive" is thrown around as a slur.  I remember you bragging about taking two days away from these boards as if that was a big accomplishment for you, which was eye-opening to say the least.  I genuinely hope this is just some internet character you're playing, because the way you act on these boards would be objectively so off-putting in the real world.  I've known a couple people like this and it's always incredibly socially awkward and sucks the energy out of the room; these are the people who don't get invited out to social events. But instead of properly absorbing and learning from these social cues in person, you're being enabled by your fellow gloomy weird internet friends here which only encourages you to spend more and more of your time online to get the approval you crave.  Just some life advice, my friend...since I'm assuming you are very young.  Don't spend all of your time in here.  There's a whole world out there with real people and meaningful connections.  And despite what the internet has taught you, being pleasant is a good thing. Btw it's really interesting how you ignored this part and instead honed in on a singular 2-second moment that I referenced and saying that I "summed him up" that way.  But hey, this is ass-backwards Internet Land after all.
