Hes better than McDermott to be honest

I would agree.....from what I've seen.

No problems with this.

Steve should decline pending the immediate firing of Mike Shula

It's Rivera's defense. Won't matter who calling it.

Excellent

[The Lobo]

Love wilks. This is good.

[TheSpecialJuan]

Good looking man.

This assumes Wilks doesn't get the Rams job. Since this would be HC, we can't block if we wanted to.

1. Unless Los Angeles offers Wilks its gig or Redskins owner Daniel Snyder writes a gigantic check, there’s little reason to think Wilks won’t take over for McDermott.
2.  
3. But let’s say that doesn’t happen. Instead of looking outside the organization, next in line would be defensive line coach Eric Washington, who some consider a rising star.

I wonder if Wilkes will be on the sidelines calling plays? It would be nice to have a coordinator be on the sidelines instead of in the box.

Who McDermott DC will be?

One of Wilks' first duties would be helping Panthers coach Ron Rivera replace linebackers coach Al Holcomb. A league source told ESPN's Adam Schefter that McDermott will make Holcomb his defensive coordinator in Buffalo.

Btw, where are all our "insiders" ?  People like Steve Reed or Joe Person should be breaking info like this since, you know, it's Panthers related.
