Good god poo fug. We win one little game against a crappy team and half this board acts like we're a player or two and a coach away from the SB. Take a step back, psychos.

Who is saying this? I think people are just excited to see the team okay with some form of heart instead of getting our teeth kicked up and down the field. Nothing wromh with a little hope and being happy for once on a Monday. I'm not in the "let's tank" for a QB that may or may not pan out well though so I guess I'm biased as I would like to see us win as many as we can and still under the hope if we get a QB they will pan out great even though it might not be the number 1 overall pick.

I'd be happy with him as defensive coordinator but don't want him as head coach. I can't stand the conservative game management. He doesn't play to win. That works if the other team beats themselves, but you're not going to consistently win that way and you're going to gradually undermine your team's confidence. I think we're just seeing how historically terrible Rhule was that Wilks' basic competence looks so good. But we can do better.

If he binds this team together and wins 5 or 6 more games, should he be retained as HC.

Sure that would kill the 'tank' crowd, but is he somehow gets P.J to be the guy this year and team responds positively, what should they do?

Opinions please...

If he can turn this team around and win another 6 games he will have gone 7 - 4 without the benefit of putting his own footprint on the team. If he hires the right offensive mind  and QB coach he should be given every chance to succeed. Hiring a different head  coach could lead us right back down a negative path.  It wouldn’t make sense to change.

People in here stating it would take a couple of playoff wins.... If Wilks gets a single playoff win with this roster... it is a no brainer to keep him. 

Fug that. If he even MAKES the playoffs, it's a no brainer to keep him. After everything that's gone on to start the year and all the distractions and drama, if Steve Wilks willed this team (whether it be by winning a bad division or not) into the playoffs, you give that man the benefit of the doubt and at bare minimum give him one more year.

    • I hope Bryce balls out. Wouldn't bet the farm on it though. Morgan has to be practical though. He was placed into a situation where he was compelled to give Bryce a long look. There really haven't been any more practical options due to who has been available at the position. The Panthers had already put their chips in with Bryce, so putting more chips in by borrowing against the future and stacking on that by borrowing against the future without really having the requisite draft capital was a nonstarter. We could either dump Bryce and go dumpster diving for known and unknown JAGs at the position, or take out chances and let it play out with Bryce and hope for acceptable returns. Due to what looks like some good moves in the draft and free agency, it appears like we're finally getting into a position where we can take a swing again if need be without destroying the core of the team. I understand that you'll believe it when you see it, but Dan is gonna move on if Bryce can't cut it. There are too many professionals lives and careers tied to Bryce to simply accept the status quo. 
    • Football is the ultimate team sport. No sport is more dependent on others for your success - including coaching. I don't know if Bryce is the guy, but I do know this has been a very bad team all around since he got here. One of the worst o-lines and coaching staffs I've ever seen his rookie year. One of the worst defenses and receiving groups (including TEs) I've ever seen his 2nd season - with a rookie HC and OC. An improving WR group his 3rd season mostly due to a rookie. The only other WR of note didn't really play well until after the 10th game of the season due to injury. Still no receiving TE to speak of. And lost games because of the worst pass rush in the NFL. And the only speed he's ever had on the field was DJ Chark. A washed up DJ Chark that played here one year and has had 31 yards receiving since leaving.  Carolina had no business moving up for a QB in 2023. They weren't ready. Especially if it meant trading your only good WR to do it. Now finally there's potential on defense. Potential on o-line. Potential at WR, including some actual speed in a game where speed kills. If BY falls on his face this season, then he has to own it. Situation may not be perfect, but it's at least NFL average across the board. I won't beat him up for being bad in bad situations on a bad team. But a 4th year QB has to be able to control the offense and make players/coaches right. The team looks good enough on paper to show what he can do now.
