All I see is that he’s not as stubborn about personnel. Rivera woulda held onto CMC and kept running him into a wall every week. And if Fitterer got rid of CMC anyway, there’s no way Blackshear would be getting the opportunities he’s getting under Rivera. Bozeman would still be on the bench. Etc. 

Dunno about Bozeman - although Rivera was very loyal to his guys, it was mostly to the detriment of rookies versus good veterans. But you are right on CMC and one of apparent benefits of Wilks over Rivera.

However, I'm a little afraid to crown Wilks that way yet since we've had very little time overall with him...

I have accepted that the panthers will most likely make the same mistake and Wilks will be our HC for the next 3-4 years with no back to back winning seasons or Super Bowl wins because he is a clone of Rivera and we wont be contenders until sometime in 2028-2030 if we hired the right coach a couple years prior after Wilks is fired around 2026.

Under ron

Terrace Marshall would still be inactive

Raheem Blackshear would still be on the practice squad if even on the team

Baker would still be here playing like ass

we would still be forcing it to McCaffery

 

 

 

I don't know, I mean Bonnafon got a decent amount of Carries,  But overall, Ron is like a lot of old school coaches in the NFL today.  He overuses his best running backs.  Don't know yet if Wilkes does that.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.

      I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.

      Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
