Whats his name?

Okay, well if you didn't see the difference between Darnold out there vs Baker and PJ I don't know what to tell you. Maybe he will start throwing bone headed ints consistently again but as of now that was good QB play. Not elite, not franchise but good.

Bringing in someone else's OC to be head coach and call the plays does not ensure he's a good head coach either. You guys fall for whatever offense is showing off and then say that coordinator is a genius and should be our head coach.  Such a childish way of looking at it. But I don't really care because we have no say in it and Tepper is like a child chasing the latest new fad.

Bringing in an Offensive minded coach does ensure a change and this franchise needs one. We’ve been doing the same poo over and over to still be sitting here with an empty trophy case.

Any new coach brought in will ensure change. It doesn't ensure that it will be for the better.

Not really sure what you want me to say. He managed the game, didn't throw an interception. It is a conservative offense that opens up occasionally and he made it work. Like....what is the bar for good to you? Has to be 300+ and 3 TD?

You have no idea what Wilks will be for this franchise.  

You’re right but I have educated guesses like Wilks is a run first defensive minded coach with what a Head Coaching record of something around 6-16. If his co-ordinators are the people you want to see and you believe they will flip the script on his coaching career we should probably be hiring them.

Funny thing is you have to be able to run the ball and have a good defense to win in the playoffs.

The argument for me now has to come down to specific names. I'm about 90% sold on Wilks and would take him over any of the following options 

-Any college coach

-Any defensive minded coach not named Bill 

-Anyone super unproven (less than 2 years of proven success calling an offence)

That basically leaves Sean Payton (who I despise but do think is a great offensive guru) or someone like him as the only type of coach I would be ok with passing up Wilks for. 

 

If they were to pass on Wilks to hire someone like Dan Quinn that would be idiotic in my opinion.

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      By Aussie Tank · Posted

      I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.

      By ColumbusCounty · Posted

      I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
