Three quarterbacks, seven or so position coaches, and new defensive coordinator, all in one season.

I'd like to see another coach do what he's done with what has gone on herez especially considering the dumpster fire that Rhule left.

And he lost his only weapon

It was a dumpster fire with some really good talent on the team. We have good players outside of QB, and having such a good OL is the only reason Wilks is able to do decently like he has.  Many coaches could have come in and gone .500 with the talent on this team, imo

Rookie TEs, and most rookie WRs don’t make major impacts. Jefferson and Chase are not the norm. And there are no Jefferson or Chase type prospects in this draft. We need to draft a QB. For folks who enjoyed the style of game we played today you could have put Anthony Richardson in there and expanded the run-game even more. If we can get a stud offensive coordinator, cool. But then that guy will be gone in a couple years if we are good. It’s why most folks want an offensive mind. 

Sam ran fine

There are some Wilks haters who definitely can't be very thrilled today.

The thing is that they don't understand football. They think we are running smashmouth football because that's all Wilks wants. We are doing that because we have the personnel to do it with and our tight ends are the worst receiving group in the league. Tight ends open up the entire passing game in today's schemes and we have none that would qualify as a concern for opposing coaches.

I'd say we hire Wilks, let him go find an offensive coordinator who is inventive, and build out the offensive side of the ball. Look at Tua before Mike McDaniels got there. People wanted him straight up cut. Look at Hurts before they figured out the system to run. 

I'd take Sam Darnold and a competent offensive coordinator along with a first round wide receiver all day, every day going into 2023. I'd also like for us to attempt to find a receiving threat at tight end because that would open up DJ Moore more than anything else that you can do.

For those comparing Wilks to Fox or Ron, you don't know what you're talking about. Wilks is his own man.

And even if he were Fox, last I checked Fox went out and got Manning who threw 50+ touchdown passes in a season and got the Broncos to a Super Bowl. So sign me up for that.

The worry is you can’t keep winning like this long-term in a passing league. It’s fine if we get ahead but we haven’t shown we can pass the ball. 

out of pie but this is definitely my opinion. I don't know what Wilks would do with a competent OC and QB, but the reality is that competent OCs get picked up for HCs.  However, I will say that if Wilks keeps winning and gets us into the playoffs I think you have to bring him back.

He is making chicken salad out of chicken schit.

I don't know what else the man has to do

Make the playoffs in a shltty division. 

If we make the playoffs and eliminate the Bucs by beating them in Tampa, and thus end Tom Brady's career, Wilks deserves another year.

The schedule is doable.

      Some love for Steve Wilks

      By frankw · Posted

      I'm not saying he should be working in the NFL. He did deserve some criticism as DC there. But Kyle Shanahan certainly did use him as a convenient scapegoat. Now there is no one left to throw under the bus. Anyways he could find his way back to the league in some capacity who knows. But he's old school and in the NFL you either adjust or you get left behind. All the same no hard feelings toward him he's a good guy.

      Is it too early to lock up Horn to a long term deal?

      By CRA · Posted

      he has barely suited up for 50% of our games.  It matters pending how much of our cap and resources go that way.  If he cost in the ballpark of a Surtain? No thank you.  Let someone else  And as far we know what happens when we let talent walk away or trade them…..that’s a mixed bag.   should we of paid Norman, Bradberry at CB? They probably had earned the right to be called better than Horn at that moment of the decision.  Do we regret that? Do we regret Star walking? Can take it back to Spoon.  Flip side is probably Peppers.

      Bryce Young what a crazy statement

      By frankw · Posted

      We need to get better in the redzone. And yes that is an issue that involves all the moving parts. Oline receivers QB and playcalling. But Bryce himself has to lead the charge on that or surely we could face another blowout in one of these upcoming games. Every team no matter how good they are is going to face an opponent that imposes their will on them and requires the same in response. Those are the games where we have got to capitalize on drives. Honestly I get the sense that the Chiefs on some level overlooked us.  So while I am pleased we were as competitive as we were it certainly remains to be seen if this was the beginning for something new or just an anomaly. I think that's a perfectly fair take at this juncture.
