wilks has done a fantastic job with matts team he assembled...the whole wilks has to go undefeated to be good enough argument is asinine.

He didn't have to go undefeated. 

He had to win this very winnable game with what he had....at home 

Time to move on

I like Wilkes and his ability to communicate with the players--based on what I have seen.  Today, regardless of what the scoreboard was saying, Pittsburgh was undisciplined and we did not really take the bait.  I have a ton of respect for Tomlin, but like any coach we tend to call "great," you have to watch him without a franchise QB.  He got in a face or two today, which is admirable, but our guys stayed, for the most part, composed.

Does that mean Wilkes should be the next coach?  Nope.  I want to see how we finish.  I am not impressed with some of the defensive mechanics I saw today--bad angles, poor tackling--CB giving too much cushion vs. a #2 wr--no apparent understanding of the situation (Taylor)

Archeletta made a few good points--LBs were hesitating (when was the last time you saw Shaq in the hole making tackles?  he gets his stats 4 yards past the LOS)  Chinn was bad in contain. 

I am also disappointed in our fans--we wont even go to a home game when we have tickets when our team was in the playoff hunt--Pittsburgh fans travel and buy up tickets when their team has the same record--and less of a chance to make the playoffs.

 The Panthers lost cornerback CJ Henderson early in the game to an ankle injury, and the Steelers took advantage.

The passing game Pittsburgh did get from an efficient Mitch Trubisky was largely in the direction of replacement cornerback Keith Taylor Jr..

That was what happened on a pair of third downs late in the fourth quarter when the Steelers were able to effectively ice the game.

again..you are basically saying he cant lose a game..that is basically an impossible feat to set on the guy...any big named coach we hire will lose to teams we should beat as well.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      I feel like this was the case with River and McDermott defenses as well, we just had the jimmies and the joes to overcome these deficiencies with all pro players at edge and linebacker positions.  Even then, was extremely frustrated in 2015 when we'd let team come back from 20+ pt deficits playing prevent only to barely win at the end.

      Bryce Young is the worst QB in Panthers History

      By panther252 · Posted

      We need to move on soon and just use Bryce as a bridge to find our next guy. I'd like to see how this offense works with Canales hand picking his own guy. Bryce holds this offense back a lot considering you draft the first pick to carry your team and be your best player. We invested heavily for Bryce and need everything to go right just to have him look like a solid game manager sometimes. When he plays well he can look decent or mid, but when he plays bad he looks like a bottom 5 qb in league (backups included). It's not worth it, especially if we need to pay him soon, which means we have to skimp all over the roster. If the defenses don't hand it to us on a silver platter Atlanta style then we struggle big time. Defenses don't respect the offense at all. With Cam we could have the worst offensive talent and I'd still think we had a shot in any game we played. If Bryce is facing a 3rd and 10 I pretty much wave the white flag and don't think we can make that first down.
