Again. He didn’t drafted and staff this team

he was quoted as telling snow his dline was too light for sustained success in the Nfl 

he was right 

He had his DC and wouldn’t even adjust a safety over the top of Evans pretty poor showing IMO

Did anyone here hear (or see) what he said in his Postgame presser?

If you did, then those who call him a "scapegoat" shouldn't be calling him that since he scapegoated Sam. 

It is pathetic, really. 

As a head coach, you should always point the finger to yourself and he didn't.

Coaches who throw their own QBs under the bus aren't Coaches who get hired to be Head Coaches.

What if it’s Wilks with his own staff and a different QB? 

That's not what he said. He said Wilks with Darnold back as the starter.

I'm not completely opposed with entertaining Wilks staying. But Darnold is not a long-term option at starting QB. If he's signed to backup money and is keeping the seat warm for a developing rookie, fine. But committing to Darnold long-term as the starter and I'm out. That'd be it.

You'll probably spend the majority of your time over at the Canes board, I assume.  😉

Oh I know. I was just curious if it was more Wilks or Darnold that would piss you off the most about that move. 
Wilks with Ben Johnson or Pep Hamilton plus an experienced, successful DC would be interesting.

I don’t think Wilks would roll with Darnold as the answer. He was pretty adamant about wanting to trade up and draft his QB when he was at Arizona. Also the look in his face when Darnold threw that pick and fumbled the snap was pretty telling he isn’t sold on him…

How was his look when Darnold threw those 3 Touchdowns?  🤔

I think he had the same expression. 

 

Though throwing the QB under the bus and basically blaming him solely for the loss in his presser isn't a good look but I digress..

Did he blame Darnold in the presser?  I missed that...

Rivera has made a career of it.

I'd be much more ok with Darnold coming back than Wilks.  Much easier to cut bait on a journeyman QB (at this point in his career, that's his destiny) than a new HC.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Winning ain't gonna make my eyes lie to me. Context matters, and it will always matter in the game of football.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      That TD pass to Legette against Miami. Elite. The play where Bryce rolls right to buy time until Tet can reverse field.  Bryce pumps as multiple defenders close in.  He barely gets it away before he takes a big time hit.  Beautiful off platform throw and great catch by Tet.   The second TD to Tet against Dallas where Bryce dips and turns his shoulder in to evade the pass rusher.  Resets and finds Tet in the end zone. Dude embodies the Keep Pounding mantra.
