My only concern with keeping Wilks as HC…

For anyone that wants Wilks as HC, I ask ... why. Like, a serious why. What does he have that screams top rated HC? I'm glad the players like him (btw, they liked Fox, Rivera, and even Rhule to an extent) but that should barely factor into why he needs to stay.

Can he outcoach 31 other coaches, can he bring something new to the table that gives teams fits, is he cutthroat, does he have experience, does he know how to bend his coaching to the team and not his ego, will he eat/sleep Panthers 24/7, does he WANT to be here, etc. That's what makes a coach, IMHO.

If there’s a defensive coach who isn’t antiquated like Rivera, Wilks, etc I’d be fine with him. But most are. My main problem with Wilks as HC next year is that he’s not a good HC

I think that'd be DeMeco Ryans,  DC of the 49ers, former Middle Linebacker. Not sure why he's getting hyped up so much but he's on all the media lists

I wasn't aware we had a vote on who the Panthers next head coach will be. When did this happen?

Seriously though, we have no say in it so let it play out. My bet is that the list lining up to take the job will not be long and it will be comically underwhelming.

 

I have to wonder if our head coach vacancy will generate a lot of great candidates with proven NFL success as a head coach who want to come here.  Otherwise how are they an obvious upgrade just because they are offensive minded.

The problem with that is no coach worth anything is going to want a babysitter or a guy waiting to take his job if the owner fires him during the season looking over his shoulder.

Naw, I disagree if we hire a small coach worried with this scenario we picked wrong.  More so I would say Wilks deserves better.  He does but it would be nice to extend the branch and a big raise

I mean, we have no say in anything at all regarding this or any other sports team, so why talk about them at all?

I'm over seeing anymore of that kind of football. I don't think it's good enough to win and it's beyond predictable and stale.

I also don't like the idea trying of tie a new HC to Wilks at DC. Scaring off a great prospect because Wilks was part of the deal is an assbackwards way to operate. 

I hope he has put together enough work by the end of the year to get a good gig after this year, just not with us. Wilks is the kind of coach I wouldn't mind playing against twice a year. Tough but completely beatable, HC or DC.

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
