Wilks is never gonna outscheme anyone

his mentality is were going to be the more physical and aggressive team and impose our will on you

The complete opposite happened today

absolutely killed in the trenches and manhandled at the line of scrimmage against a team with nothing to play for, in the most important December game in 5 years, at home

 

sorry Steve i was rooting for you but that’s unforgivable

Matt Canada's not really anything special as an OC either.

I would like to feel that way but common logic forces me to realize that the Panthers are currently not a playoff caliber team.

 I really wanted them to make the playoffs, but now it is becoming apparent it would be in their best interest to fogus on the 2023 draft and forget a playoff berth that seems to have passed.

Never said we were a playoff caliber team. The fear of getting this team into the playoffs, if it happens would be nothing short of amazing!

If he wins the division I think he deserves a shot. I mean look at the mess Rhule left him, they trade CMC, and he’s got McAdoo calling plays. If he can win the NFCS give him a shot. 
 

However, I like conservative coaches. I’m an old school run heavy, strong D type guy, but Wilks is waaaayyyyy too conservative. He makes John Fox look like Jim Harbaugh. I just don’t think it will work out for him.

 

I also have concerns about Al Holcombe being DC and who Wilks would bring in to be the OC. If you look at his Staff in AZ and Cleveland it wasn’t exactly a bunch of Winners.

Don't know if it's over, but I would say the Wilks train took a pretty big hit today 

Yeah, I am sure Tepper has a few spurs in his ass over this lose.  The one time where we could have beat them and we got manhandled offensively and defensively.

I think at this point a deep run in the playoffs is his only hope and with a 5-9 record that seems highly unlikely.

The bad part is that the Panthers didn't just get beat, they got destroyed at home by a team that shouldn't have been any better than them. A total let down from top to bottom.

If we had a winning record, even 9-8, then sure. If we back into the division at 7-10, there’s no way that needs to be treated as any sort of success. It’s a result of us sucking just a little less than the rest of our crap division. 
 

Let’s move on.

If we finish 7-10 that means Wilks basically went 6-5 with the disaster QB room we have (i dont count the first game against the Rams against him because he became the coach the Monday before the game)

That does not excite me about the possibility of Wilks going forward. The Bengals and Steelers games were disasters, even if you want to be generous. That’s even assuming we win 2 of our last 3, which I doubt happens at this point. 
 

I guess I just don’t get the optimism around him. Even before yesterday I wasn’t on board. The NFL is moving away from guys like Wilks, not towards them. You really wouldn’t want us to explore other possibilities? Preferably offensive ones that we can grow a new QB with?

No.  It doesn't work like that 

I realize the NFL is not fair but to give Rhule 7 years to prove himself and not give Wilkes a fair chance is wrong .  the players are playing better in  all  positions with the same team as Rhule .  Lets see what he can do with players from his draft .

    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel. 
    • Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
