Yeah that was good.  Loved the part where he talks about the franchise as something he loves and truly cares about, how he was here when we went to the Super Bowl and 3-peated the NFCS, how he knows what it takes to get back there and he wants to get us there.  
 

 

Music to my ears.

For sure.  It's what happend in Arizona. Cards fan hate him cause he did stupid shlt but was certain he was right.  He  and the GM selected Josh Rosen with the 10 pick in the draft.  It was a disaster over there.  Total shlt show.

Not quite understanding what you're saying, but Wilks rightfully wanted to draft Allen.

"Steve Wilks claims that Arizona hired him as a 'bridge' for the next head coach. While he wanted the team to trade up for Allen, Wilks was never given any real power over the team's future, and Keim decided to draft Josh Rosen."

Nice link.

If true, he should win his lawsuit.

Every player from his draft class is no longer on the team.  I guess he didn't want any of them.

BTW Allen sucked his first year sooo, that wouldn't have saved Wilks.

Plenty of teams have shown you don't need a top 3 pick to get a good QB. Losing out means our roster is much further away than I hoped and definitely much more than just a QB away. If Wilks can actually turn the team around I'll be excited. There's no guarantee that losing out and drafting a QB top 3 doesn't end up just where we are anyway.  We already have two QBs selected at the top of the draft on the roster, lol.

So we are trading away multiple first round picks to move back. Sound like a plan for sustained success. /s

If you think there is a QB in this draft class to get us out of purgatory... I think you have another thing coming, my friend.

If he wanted Allen and is our HC next year there is a good chance we are drafting Richardson if we are in the right spot.

He’s a leader. Instills confidence and while might not say what you want to hear, is pretty transparent for being in a head coaching position. Breath of fresh air. 

I noticed he was also calling them “men.”  I don’t recall hearing Rhule ever say that.  College poo

Dude is straight out the worst coach I've ever seen in any sport.
 

Uh, folks, for your consideration, we attach some clips of one Matt Rhule.  A legend in his own mind.  A man that could have bee great, but he wasn't any good.

Then get back to us on that observation.

    • He was saying Ron hid when he was cut/traded whatever that was.  I get being resentful, and feeling like that was gutless.  He, and Ron, neither are from the ‘breaking up with someone in a text or email is okay’ generation. That avoidance is seen as a lack of character.  Talking about it on camera how many years later? Why? And it is all one sided he said she said stuff. As he is speaking I am thinking well I bet that ain’t the whole story.    Between this type of stuff and him cheating on the wife stuff some of his shine is wearing off. 
    • I was very critical of Ron Rivera as a coach for a range of reasons. But Steve Smith has been playing the victim for years now and it's just not working anymore. We know for a fact that he was disgruntled from the moment we drafted Cam Newton because of his own ego. That says more about him than anything he could say about Rivera. And yes Ron Rivera had a lot of faults. No excuses for it. We were right to move on from him. But ultimately Steve Smith couldn't hold it together with that group the same as he struggled to hold it together under previous regimes. He needs to grow up and accept his own role in the last few years of his Panthers career because there are things he could and should have done differently the same as anyone else. Stop seeking to only shift blame to everyone else and evolve or just stop talking and fade away. This isn't helping anyone and it is certainly not helping his image.
    • A friend of mine was involved in building Steve Smith's house and nearly came to blows with him during the process.  Love Smitty as a player, but I've heard very little good about him as a human being.
