The raiders passed on him a couple years ago and then the Vikings passed on him last year and now it looks like we are gonna do the same. He must be asking for the Matt Rhule treatment or something crazy. I can respect it because unlike Rhule he at least has the results to back it up.

Tisk, tisk, tisk....we do not speak/type that name.  It is forboden.  There needs to be a filter that pops up used-car-saleman when that named is typed just like the filter when someone types a cuss word.

100% His name should go the way of the golden calf of bristol.  Make it happen Jeremy

If Harbaugh is available and Tepper wants him instead of Wilks, he will get him.

People also said Tepper would get Deshaun Watson if he wanted him.

Not sure where people get this idea that Tepper is some kind of godfather like figure. He's proven to be nothing of the sort.

This would be stunning. One of the hottest candidates on the market is seemingly basically begging to coach the Panthers and Tepper is like...

Jones makes It sounds like Harbaugh's "representation" have been The ones doing all the calling, not Harbaugh himself.

My guess would be they've been calling us primarily because we're one of the teams that already has an opening, not necessarily out of any affinity for the Panthers.

Does anyone think that Wilks would return as DC not head coach?

I know it may sound "insulting" to him, but let's be honest, outside of Carolina he has not had too much stability.  Arizona, Cleveland, and Missouri before he had the opportunity to come back home as a DB coach not even a coordinator.

Depending on the amount of openings he may or may not get another chance at anything above that position.  He's not going to Denver.  Anyone with a brain will stay far away from Indy.  I really don't think he'd be too keen to return to Arizona.

My preference to WIlks being the HC is because he has the locker room.  Finding that young offensive coach is great, but the young coach needs a solid voice in his ear.  Ron Riveria said the same thing as he began his career.  DO you think that Wilks would see that as a demotion if he was asked to mentor a young HC and be the DC?

Have you seen the record history of interm coaches becoming head coach? It's not pretty.

I think they should at least interview him, it would be insane not to. I like Wilks but he he is Rivera 2.0 and that won’t work. This is why I didn’t get my hopes up, Tepper is going to botch this so bad.

I keep seeing quotes and articles about the players backing Wilks, which is great, but they all backed Rhule too.

I will say this, I don’t trust Tepper to make a better hire than Wilks, so if he truly doesn’t want Harbaugh, then he could do way worse than Wilks.

The only way he'd might come back as DC is if we hired Ken Dorsey as HC or if Tepper pulls a Michael Jordan and rehires Ron Rivera.

My ideal would be Wilks with the duties of a DB Coach but an assistant head coach title.

      Peeking at the roster in 2026

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I’m keeping an eye on what the Hawks do with Boye Mafe. There’s a few young talented players that needs to be retained and one of their defensive starters might not fit within the budget. My guess is probably Riq Woolen is voted off the island but Mafe could be potentially too. His stats aren’t eye popping, but in McDonald’s defense, his role is to leverage for the DL to clean up. Mafe’s QB pressure rate is top notch and in a different scheme, he could clean up.    Just something to watch this weekend when SEA is in town.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By shaqattaq · Posted

      I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
