People whine about the "conservative" run first thing. At least it's a creative run game that D's do not like to play against

Defenses are built to stop the pass these days. That’s my personal belief to why scoring is down.
 

The heavy scheme we showed today is the anti-modern defense.

However, you still need to be be able to pass the ball to win in this league

That's why his staff choices should be critical in his interview for the full time gig. That would be one of the main boxes he would have to check if I were on the hiring committee.

Yeah the game thread today only went about half o r less of normal.  We can expect all sorts of bizarre pronouncements in the coming weeks trying to troll up the numbers.

Broncos offense was so bad we could afford to be conservative today in general. It was a don't fix what's not broke kinda day. Seattle will put up points so we'll see where Darnold is really at in that game. Average defense so no excuses

It was a sit back and let them fug up day. They basically quit by the 3rd quarter and Darnold was looking like an actual QB even though he rolled for a TD and sailed a ungodly amount of passes.

The team that showed up today (stout defense, strong ground game, and a QB who doesn’t make any mistakes) could go 5-0 against that group. I don’t think it’ll happen, but it at least makes the remaining couple of games worth tuning in for.

Either way Wilks starts up front with the O-line and D-line which has always been the key to success no matter your personal preference of run or pass. The score dictates that and whether you have a QB/WR's/CB's that can get their jobs done. We can all agree having a solid O-line is a major fuging relief finally

Coaching success is a mixture of things.

First off, you have to be a leader. I don't think anybody doubts Wilks is that. Players respond to him like you hope players would.

The second thing you need is the mind of a chess master when it comes to strategy and planning. Does Wilks have that? Don't know.

But if he doesn't, he can make up for it by having a good eye for staffing. One of the reasons Sean McDermott has been so good is that he built a killer staff. Can Wilks do the same?

So basically, he's got the leadership part down. Whether he can also be the chess master or the staff builder is yet to be seen, but those things are necessary if he wants to be a winner.

    • JMO, I think it is lame as hell to publicly give up on the team and then crawl back when they win a few games. Like, how can you run a PANTHERS PODCAST and then give up on it during the season?    Yes, you can argue the Panthers prior to Week 3 hadn't done anything to deserve fanfare, but nobody made them run a Panthers Podcast.  They chose to.  So stick with it.  Instead they gave up and did so publicly.  Which is well within their right - but you can't then turn around and bring it back the same season.  
    • The crazy thing about football is it’s a team sport. But one position can make or break the game. And one of the best ways in doing that is by not giving the ball away and being able to run at 4-5 yard clips. Throw in a couple passes and next thing you know you’re in the red zone. Playing this way limits possessions to other(more dynamic) QBs too. And if your defense plays well that could equate to between 4 and six series. If you’re running that efficient, you can say, split the offensive production with the run or the pass. So by attempt byce accounted for his half of the yardage and Rico did too. Rico also managed to punch it in at the goal line. And you gotta give it to our oline and they’re running blocking and that’s without TMO! so the truth is, Canales and management figured out how to use Bryce’s strengths to compliment this run game to cover up his weaknesses in a way that is efficient. And our defense showed improvement against pretty formidable opponent the week after andy dalton gave it to buffalo. They are putting winning football on the field more often, and we are slowly becoming better each week. I hope they can keep it up.  
    • If only the Eagles collapse. I dont think it will happen though. I hate them as much. Ill root for the Chiefs if they play the Eagles this time around in the Superbowl. I hate those guys.
