That sounds more like he's making a prediction than a report.

Having it come in the middle of a testy exchange doesn't help.

Also…If you read the whole tweet thread Ben is making it sound like that Denver wants him but none of the other teams actually want Payton…which line up to to earlier reports that Payton was meeting to actually sell himself to the panthers, not the other way around like some want to believe

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 don't think it will ever work by forcing coaches on a new HC. If you don't like any of their plans on filling out a staff, then that is clearly not your guy.

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.  

Ryans turned us down.

It’s fine as long as Father Time doesn’t go deep to the sloth that is mike evans 3 times to come back and win the game. Another reason to not want wilks is Holcomb 

This is what makes me say no to Wilks, alongside getting absolutely demolished by the Bengals and making Trubisky look like a starting QB. I don't even like the idea of Wilks staying as DC because, frankly, he's just not that good at it. Not sure any other team would want him in that role either.

Makes sense.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
