If Wilks Goes .500 or better...

[WarPanthers89]

Tepper will want a more sure bet, and it wouldn’t surprise me to see him try to make a big splash like before but in the NFL coaching tree. It won’t be with a 7 year contract….but he will still throw around big money to get who he feels that he can give another rebuild to. Wilks would deserve serious consideration if he turns the team around, but realistically I don’t see it happening.

It would be the ultimate Panthers thing for Wilks to win an extra 4 or 5 games, miss out on the top 2 QBs of the draft, and then retain Wilks for his efforts and miss out on an offensive coach. You want to talk about setting this franchise back even more years.

Wilks is not HC material. Y'all are gonna learn fast.

You know of a super secret QB we don't know about?

No way in hell this happens

He will win more games this year than Rhule did. I’ll say 4 games.

If it's looking like Wilks is gonna be going .500 we need to be firing him well before then as he'll be screwing up our draft position for a QB next year.

He would have to finish 9-8 and I don’t see that happening.  I think we win two more games tops but we’ll be a little more competitive.  I like Wilkes but I think with a top 3 pick we’ll attract a better option as head coach.

If Wilkes fugs up our draft, I will be fuging pissed at him. I definitely don’t want him as full time HC

[Beast_3000]

Lol you guys are a trip. FIRE RHULE NOW !!  Less than 12 hours later …….. If Wilks fugs up our draft I will be so upset !! Wilkes sucked in Arizona ! Get rid of him !! What do you want ??? 

If that’s the case most of us should have quietly accepted Rhule for his failures until week 17, and ask for his head on a platter then. I don’t think it’s probable for Wilks to succeed,  but at this point let the man do his job, with his limited ability to make changes mid-season, without blaming him for his predecessors failures.

Hell No, I am sick of signing coaches and players who were cast off from other teams and hoping they are different here somehow, Baker was the last straw 

 

Insert: Rhule 

[PghPanther]

He's a bandaid on a severed artery until Tepper figures out how he can pick his financial nose again without the snot getting all over his shirt. What you are going to see for the rest of the season is will be this clown show on steroids.

Meh Wilks is a place holder. Rhule left him a mess and McAdoo is still calling plays. IMO Wilks isn't close to a long term answer and we need a HC with a better coaching tree.

We are not hitting .500 this year.

If Tepper had pulled the plug at the beginning of the offseason instead of feeding his own ego and calling fans basement people maybe we wouldn't be having to ponder these things this late in the game. But Wilks is just a man stuck trying to hold back the tide. I like him but I don't envy the position he is in. I do hope the locker room and overall vibe can improve though and we end the season on a respectable note. No tanking is not going to help that it's only going to put more doubt in the back or everyone's mind.
