Exactly. I wouldn’t be opposed to Wilks if I knew he wouldn’t torture us with Al Holcombe like Rivera did with Eric Washington.

Eric Washingtons play calling makes Al Holcomb look good. Dude dropped 350+ pound dontri poe into a zone and send one of the best coverage linebackers ever to blitz into a triple team.

translation: Demeco Ryans will NOT circle back to interview the Panthers

More like Translation: Everyone knows Ryans is going to the Texans

It just makes too much sense, they got hit hard in the media for hiring black HC's who they subsequently fired after giving them only one season.  On top of all the Watson stuff they had to deal with, looking at a minority hire always made sense for them if there was a good fit as it helps them from a PR standpoint.

Add in that he's one of the better players in franchise history and it just seems like it's too obvious of a fit for both sides that it is bound to happen.

Like I said, don't give him a choice. New coordinators if you want the job. 

Looks like that's what we want to do with prospective new offensive minded coaches...choose their DC for them. it shouldn't be a problem for Wilks anymore than it would be for those other guys to have coordinators chosen for them. after rhule insisting on his college crew come with him, i think that we have more than enough reason to be skeptical and even a bit controlling of an HC wanting his own crew. 

Get the best coordinators possible, not necessarily the ones that the HC feels most comfortable with.

I do think for Ryans it's Houston or bust (aka staying on as DC in SF for another year). He pulled himself out of consideration for the Colts and Cardinals jobs. Denver is reportedly looking to hire someone with previous HC experience (Quinn or Payton) given they they've flamed out with 3 straight coordinator hires.

I still think Evero has a shot

I'll be very angry if this happens, but nothing against that guy.

It will have everything to do with us not even interviewing 2 of my personal top candidates who are DC's, one being Ryans which I detailed above, but the other being Quinn.

If we hire a young DC with no HC experience without even interviewing Quinn, it would very much upset me, particularly with Tepper having said he would like someone with previous HC experience early in the process.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      By Swaggasaurus · Posted

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
