I keep seeing the media say that the fans want Wilks back. I don’t think that is accurate. I mean, look at the results of this poll for example. 

Wilks not willing to go for it on 4th and 1 while having nothing to lose and everything to gain?

Yeah, a coach who is that conservative isn't getting the Panthers to the promised land.

Hard pass.

I gave him a B due to the QB's he was given. But as far as a head coach goes he is another John Fox/Ron Rivera mold of head coach. The league has passed these coaches by years ago. The majority of the people who want him to be the head coach are led by emotions instead of logic because he has local roots. That doesn't make a successful head coach sorry.

Not sure how you can give the guy a B the way our defense lost the game last week…on the same damn go route 3 times. 

I think the problem is we didn’t have our top 2 CB’s. Had we doubled Evans then Godwin would have shredded us. 
 

I think they calculated the best bet to win a given situation was to hope Henderson could win a few downs without the scheme catering to him. 
 

I understand it cost us, but it might have been the only strategy we had.

I gave him a B because he’s playing with somebody else players tweaking somebody else’s system and cleaning up somebody else’s mess..

Yup. He managed a 50% win rate with someone else's garbage, even when that idiot only managed to win 20% of the time with his own system.

    • Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
    • That's why I say we have to keep looking. Even if you believe Bryce is the guy, KP and Grier are not and who knows if King is anything more than a gimmick player, we should be active in improving our 2nd QB spot. Season ending injuries happen, and you don't just want to roll over and give it up. How many starters have we seen come from the ranks of backup? Having 2 potential starting QBs is one of the best problems we could have. 
    • Eh, it’s more on how bad the refs are. Some of these calls against the canes are no calls
