Tepper clearly wants to change the Panthers identity

Lutz's second FG was blocked, but yeah. Was a shitshow of a game all around -
Tepper clearly wants to change the Panthers identity
mav1234 replied to Saca312's topic in Carolina Panthers
I'm in the same boat. I have some personal thoughts, but also know that none of us are going to privy to the interview, until maybe we hear someone made Tepper meatballs again and his wife had to restrain him from whipping out more than his checkbook at dinner. I am leaning not-Wilks right now but I recognize that he has had a good overall run as interim HC and if the right questions are asked and he comes out on top, awesome, that's great for him as I'd be excited for him personally. -
This has been happening to me a lot - If I wait long enough, usually a page becomes "interactable" again. Not sure what's up, it only seems an issue on the last page. I was wondering if it was my adblocker. edit: Definitely gets worse as more posts are added to a page - I've seen a few other posters comment on this too.

Under No Circumstances Should We Trade a Haul for a QB/Pick
mav1234 replied to tukafan21's topic in Carolina Panthers
I don't know what exactly is meant by haul but we absolutely have to go out and get the QB we like if we are in position to do so. Enough with retreads and reclamation projects. We're interviewing a boatload of QB gurus and offensive coordinators for a reason. -

I actually think Burns was exhausted by the end of the season and maybe slightly injured. In general our best DL did not get enough breathers and I think it showed in the TB game. Still, despite how hard some guys fought the team still fell short and/or sucked at key times. I just don't know if Wilks is the answer - leaning more towards not, tbh. But as I've said, he deserves an interview and if he has a good plan I hope Tepper goes with him. -

And even against the Saints, we were bailed out by Sam fuging Darnold turning into Sam Newton and, after completing like one total pass, throwing a dart to move us into FG position. Admittedly Burns wasn't playing but our team looked dead... -
This is awesome... Would love to get a chance with him as our HC...

that might be true but our division is a combined 29-39, so is that really saying muhc? -

If a new coach does worse for a couple seasons we go after another new coach. Just how it goes until you find a good one. -

mav1234 replied to Saca312's topic in Carolina Panthers
He did a fine job but I don't necessarily just want a HC that does a fine job. I think Wilks can make an argument for his hire but I'm tired of mediocrity. In one of the worst divisions in football in a long time he had a shot at the division. He didn't make it. That means a lot IMO. -
Ok but he actually also had a TD that game... Dalton also has significantly more NFL experience which is valuable in a bridge guy imo.

Why can you take away 3-13 but we can't take away 6-6? Wilks may not be as bad as his 3-13 record but why do we assume he will definitely be his 6-6 record? When he took over our D nose dived. I think he's probably closer to .500 than .321 but let's not act like his floor is .500 ball. -
Minshew could make a lot of sense with our interest in Steichen... I mean I think I've been called a Darnold superfan, and I just don't see much point. His experience has been with (for the most part) Gase and Rhule. It's actually why his career could be vastly different elsewhere if he gets a different, new coach (it probably won't be lol). But it's also why there's better guys, like Dalton, Brisset, and Minshew, that have been in various systems etc and have had some of their own relative success at times. Darnolds best season was this stretch and he capped it with the worst game by a Panthers QB ever (stats wise)

Haha fair. I mean even idiots get lucky sometimes so here's hoping... -

I don't know why we are sure we are getting a .500 clip Wilks when his career winning percentage as a coach is .321... -

mav1234 replied to Saca312's topic in Carolina Panthers
Im sympathetic to that but I'd still rather he try than settle. Tbh outside of saying no to Harbaugh (which may be about total control) I'm relatively happy with his pool so far. -
I don't see the point in bringing him back when there are likely others with more experience to serve as a bridge out there for similar costs, but if his familiarity with the team etc means we get him cheapish and the new coach feels he's a good bridge to a young guy, whatever. I just don't want to see him for more than 5 games. He falls apart after that in a bad way it seems.

When you kept it going I thought you were serious lol

mav1234 replied to Saca312's topic in Carolina Panthers
Know he can win? I mean, we know he can go .500 against some of the worst teams in the league. He had some good wins but we lost when it mattered most. Why the hell would any of us want to settle for solid but unspectacular right now?? I'd like back to back winning seasons. If Wilks interviews well and gets the job I'll support him because I'll believe he will have sold Tepper on a new identity that includes more dynamic offense. I can believe he was severely handicapped there this year. But his defense is just as problematic. -
Either you do extensive reading yourself on this sport or you keep copious side notes on things you saw two decades ago. No judgement on either of those things. This is a weird take from you given you present information like you've done plenty of reading/research on a topic too.

It really doesn't, especially given how OSU performed against Georgia. I think the idea was "Michigan is fools gold" but Georgia just took their game to a different stratosphere.

Scott Fowler Observer column on coaching hire
mav1234 replied to raleigh-panther's topic in Carolina Panthers
I'm willing to let Wilks interview and give a plan of how he's going to transform the offense AND defense. And while I personally think he's the wrong choice, I admit that I could be wrong, and maybe his plan will be so good, Tepper will think he's worth giving another few years to. We'll see. But we really, really need new coordinators. -
So which QB do we think will be available at #9?
mav1234 replied to NAS's topic in Carolina Panthers
The Huddle is behaving VERY weird for me today. Keep getting weird freezes, unable to quote posts, etc. Not sure if my ad-blocker is acting up or what.
