Can we just take a second to give this man some flowers, taking over under the circumstances can’t be easy, but this team has competed and given us something to watch and enjoy again!  I, for one, am grateful to just watch exciting football again!  Thank you for being steady and leading these men, Coach Wilks!

 

 

I agree.

I feel like he is doing it right. They are men and  he treats them like men. At the same time took no bull from Anderson. Woke up to find himself traded probably. That is a strong message on a couple of levels. At the same time, he stands in the firing line for the players who screwed up.

I believe he understands how to lead and motivate on a high level. 
And I bet he gets interviews out of this and not just to satisfy the Rooney rule or because of his lawsuit.

I have seen enough to know what I am looking at, and don’t think Wilkes is going to change over the next few weeks into, fundamentally, something else. This is what he is, and we are seeing it right now.

Fox was the same way, Riverboat was the same way

 

The NFL isnt old school anymore, we need some fresh new blood with fresh new ideas.

Maybe you are right, but I think the NFL is great when it is old school. They want flag football now 

Old school is a thing of the past.  The games from NFL films are totally different then whats being played today.  We had Miami on one of the tvs yesterday and the second half that McDaniel layed out was a thing of beauty.  Absolute brillance.  I dont see a coach like wilks changing midgame and adapting like that

Old school, new school, look the man can coach. We have gone from laughable, to broadcasters in other games calling is a very "tough out" in span of 3 weeks.

Definitely unfortunate that our field goal kicker missed 2 game winning kicks, but the plays were there to be made. I think one thing you can note is that the coach's on the other side of the field aren't noticably out coaching us any more. It's nice to behold.

If we keeps us competitive with the hand he was dealt, I wouldn't mind seeing him with his own QB and coordinator choice in the future.

If Wilks can build off of yesterday's close loss, and turn it into close wins, and then decisive wins down the stretch, then there's no way he doesn't get the HC nod. I hope it happens. He's a good dude and the guys play hard for him. I like his demeanor better than Rivera's and Fox's. This was his third game, and only his second with a full week to prepare, so he's 1-1 as far as I'm concerned. Would be great to beat the Bengals after they just blew out the Falcons. Hey, it could happen!

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Icege · Posted

      I really appreciate Bill explaining his methodology here because that gives interested parties a chance to try and recreate the results themselves. I believe that it's safe to assume that despite emphasis being placed on WRs that Chuba Hubbard is one of the Panthers' top-5 weapons. Considering targets, yardage, receptions, etc... Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette are also on the list. Jalen Coker's success might have snuck him in there as well. I can't draw a conclusion on who #5 is though. I've narrowed it down to Diontae Johnson, David Moore, Ja'Tavion Sanders, and possibly Rico Dowdle if they're taking into account his production for the Cowboys in 2024.

      Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy.

      Orlov Complaining About Time W/Hurricanes

      By Panthers Fan 69 · Posted

      I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…
