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.

No, that's saying that he can lose a couple games, but not this game. 

It's not an impossible feat. Beating the Steelers was not a  impossible feat...and if it is, then that is an even bigger red flag and reason to NOT hire him full time.

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’ve supported Coach Wilks 

Today, going for field goals instead of trying to win by going for it and if it wasn’t made, pinning Pittsburgh back was a deal breaker for me 

it’s not like the panthers had anything to lose by, at last pretending to be creative on offense. 

the fact that this team had everything to play for and nothing to lose to come out flat like they did, and those with  the C on their jerseys not doing more, I’m in favor of blowing it fully up …staff, Fitterer, moving players, all of it 

both lines got beaten…the defense with all those high draft picks and the offense with a rebuilt line and they still suck

they can’t play the Falcons every week.

This is the first time this year Trubisky looked like an NFL QB. Our defense was flat out abused and our vaunted run blocking OL looked like the 3 stooges.

Wilks has shown he can take a bad team and make them average.   That's not the same as taking an average team and making them winners.  

I love the guy and what he stands for but watching today seemed to show he's not in Tomlin's class. When a team that has everything to play for gets trucked by a team that has no real reason to win it doesn't seem to be a good sign. He clearly has more substance than Rhule but I feel the same about hiring him long term that I do about darnold.  Good people, just not going to accomplish what we all want.

Low ceiling. Too low.

I mean the Steelers always beat the poo out of us. 
 

And did you hear when they kneeled for the win? This wasn’t a home game for us at all. Never is when they are in town. It’s pitiful. 

This, I fugging despise how Pittsburg is represented in this state. Same thing for the Penguins against the canes, they are always represented here. It is embarrassing.

I like Wilks

This is kind of a key phrase.

Damn near everybody likes Steve Wilks, and likewise everyone respects him.

But do we believe he's capable of leading the team to become a perennial contender?

I think we want to.

He's like that person you dated that you aren't really attracted to but you like so much you wish you were.

Over time though, you come to understand that's just not gonna happen 😕

Another thing that is not fair to him (or us) is we compare to him to Ruhle, who is the worst coach in team history.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
