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.

      So happy that LaMelo got the layup to go and *won* the game. How happy he was after the game, that's what a young dude like him needs to keep it going and keep the belief going. If we lose, LaMelo gets blamed, and he's got an offseason to be in his head and hear the noise like the last few years. The season might still have an ugly ending, but weirdly feels like last night was HUGE for this team moving forward.

      My thoughts on Carolina's post-season run: Obviously, the season began with a below average Freddie Andersen and everyone hoping Kochetkov would pick up the slack, until he got hurt. Enter Brandon Bussi who had a made-for-TV movie type run until the end of the season, when he came crashing back to earth, his save % drops under .900 and the team needs to score 5-6 goals to win games. Freddie has shown signs of a resurgence and Bussi looked pretty good the last 2 games of the season, but both sample sizes are small and questions abound for all 3 goalies. The physicality of playoff hockey will take its toll. Save for a few players, the Canes best players are small, their top 2 lines are small and there's no getting around that. The only way to protect the size disadvantage is a strong forecheck. Allowing opposing teams to establish the offensive zone and create board battles with smaller players will hurt Carolina. The Stankoven line could be a difference-maker. If they continue to play well against lower defensive pairs, it only adds to the depth of the team.  The Aho line had stretches of absenteeism during the season. The Canes cannot afford to have them dry up offensively and leave the scoring to Ehlers and the Stankoven line. If they aren't performing well, teams will simply roll their best lines out on the Canes best playing lines.  If the Canes can get by Ottawa and get some help from Boston against Buffalo, I think they have a legit shot to make the finals. Make no mistake, I think their toughest challenges are Ottawa and Buffalo in the East.
