All aboard the Wilks Wagon

We could win out from here and I would still say explore all options in the offseason. We cannot afford to end up embarrassing ourselves again with the next head coaching hire by settling too soon. Bring in a consultant hire the best possible candidate for the job.

To me,  he is basically Ron with a more blitzing defense.  Which is what I thought we needed all along, but if you don't like run first ball control offense, and you know who you are,  Wilks is not your guy.  It might not be fun to watch but he will win.

Not many shootouts, but more wins than we have seen in the last 4 years for sure.

You understand he is still having to use Rhules players, offensive playbook and defensive playbook right?

He also didn't have Sam till now.

The Bengals game was a complete embarrassment. Rhule won 3 in a row with Darnold. How much do you want to bet Wilks won’t do the same?

Seriously, all I see is another Fox/Rivera that wants to run the ball to shorten the game and try to make it close enough to win. Conservative defensive minded coaches are boring and becoming a thing of the past.

Slow the horses,, We beat a bad Denver team , a bad Atlanta team.. and Tampa Bay.

We lost 4 since he took over.,  3-4 .. let’s give this experiment a little more time.  
 

yes he’s better than Rhule.. no he doesn’t have an NFL quarterback,, but let’s not just write checks to anyone who looks better than Rhule..  

let the season play out

    • Dalton is ancient by NFL standards. Howell is only 25.  Howell's only year as a starter he put up almost 4k yards, 21/21 with a 43.2 QBR while being sacked 65 times.  This past year and the 3rd starting, which many would consider to be Bryce's best, he barely put up 3k yards 23/11 with a QBR of 47.6 while being sacked 27 times.  Pickett 4 years in the league, with 27 starts, he's amassed 4900 yards, 16/16 with a 53.6 QBR.  Now if Bryce were injured for a season, which QB would you say has more potential to step in and run an offense? I'd say Howell only because in a single season he threw for 1k yards less, more tds and granted more ints in 11 less games as a starter than Pickett's whole career.  Everyone is saying Pickett sucks, Howell sucks, but what I'm seeing is Bryce is right on par with them. Howell is on his 5th team, so is KP, yet Bryce just got a 5th year extension putting up pretty much similar numbers. The bar for QB on this organization is really low.  Did I want Howell? I didn't care. I wanted someone, anyone, who can potentially be better than what we've had the past 3 years or who we signed as a backup. We do not have even a mid tier NFL QB on the roster right now.  If Howell was brought in as camp fodder and didn't make the cut, wouldn't hurt my feelings at all. If we bring in another QB via the draft, I hope it's someone who could have the potential to be a starting QB with some development because that's the whole point.  We can't be afraid to bring in anyone who might have the potential to unseat Bryce or take his job if he's injured. The goal is to get winning seasons and make SB runs with hopefully a victory or 2. Pickett doesn't accomplish that. Dalton hasn't been able to even be in consideration for that role in over 2 years. 
    • Next 2, Brooklyn and Philly are must wins that we should have no problems winning. Other 2 are Knicks and Celtics in Charlotte, split those. I think that 5 of 6 is very doable. And probably will be necessary for our pursuit of a 6-8 seed. Hawks keep rolling sadly but at least Miami and Orlando finally slipping up after they both had long winning streaks like Atlanta. 76ers obviously in a free fall
