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!

    • Do you see the vision?  As of now our Carolina Panthers don’t have an identity. We are not an offensive powerhouse and on defense we only started getting it together towards the end of the year last year. In my opinion we are much closer to having an incredible defense that scares the daylights out of people. I say the answer is simple and we fully commit to that possible identity.    Emmanuel McNeil Warren (E man)  This guy is like a shark lurking around ready to attack anyone. Fearless. He is easily a top 20 talent in my eyes, and the only reason he isn’t more talked about is because he’s from Toledo. Do your due diligence as panther fans and watch his tape I beg you. Once you’re done watching let me ask you this, if you dropped E - Man into the strong safety spot on the Buckeyes, he isn’t being talked about as one of the best prospects we’ve seen in some time given the skill set you see with this guy? I think so. Put his name on the card and turn it in at 19.    Jacob Rodriguez  High effort, High energy, High IQ guy that flies around the field. We all know Jacob at this point. My only concern is he’s a little bit too good and I’m not sure he makes it to us at our pick in the second. With the additions of Jacob and E- Man I think our defense goes to top 5 in the league. We would have a duo of linebackers that rival anything we’ve had in our past. I’m not a GM so I don’t know what the possible answer could be, but if there’s a way we can comfortably trade up in the second to secure this guy I think we find a way to do it.    Spend the rest of our picks fixing the O - line.    Thoughts Panthers fans? Who’s the ideal duo for yall? 
    • OL is arguably much more important to the success of a young QB. (Or any QB)
    • Didn’t get around to watching this one but looks like Pistons played their starters and actually tried…? Unlucky that they sit vs Magic, etc and try vs us. Hopefully we can beat the Heat and then Magic or 6ers with no Embiid. BUT if not, the NBA really should give us the lottery win this year like they did Mavs last year. Another high pick could be our final missing piece and have us as legit top contenders next year and going forward if we’re healthy. Or trade it for a Giannis type
