Tell me about his qb room 

how about his WR room

or TE room 

or his offensive coaching staff 

I’ll wait 

 

How about that defense which he specializes in with studs like horn, burns, chinn, and brown on it. Mike evans is still open 15 hours later.

this guys stunk in Arizona and got fired. The best job he could get was at Missouri after that. Then the Panthers gave him a chance as position coach, not even coordinator. 
 

He is 5-6 since he took over , and you would think by listening to the god awful Charlotte media and a group of dumb fans that he is 11-0. This guy would be a much worse ron rivera.

You clearly don't have a clue and general concensus is he did a great job under the circumstances. If we don't hire him someone else will which could be quite an embarrassment to Tepper if he does better than whoever we pick. Acting as if he would be a bad hire is way overblown and give you no credibility. Saying it over and over just confirms it.

Got it. Let me just clarify it for you one more time. If the Panthers hire Steve Wilks it would be one of the worst coaching hires of all time and would set this franchise back a minimum 5 years . Not even Davis Tepper is stupid enough to do that.

Counter Point:  How has it felt to have meaningful football in December/January for the first time since 2017?  Pretty darn good.

The reality is that most of us were hoping to win yesterday, win the division this weekend, and be ready to give the Cowboys the beating of their lives.  It's not going to happen, didn't happen, and it sucks.

While I have no problem giving opinions about Wilks or coaches, some of y'all get worked into a lather about who will coach next year.  It's out of our hands.  We can have our preferences, but chill out.  As the kids say, go touch some grass =P

Wilks has done a really good job in a short time period taking the poo stain of a team that went 1-5 under Rhule, cleansing his BS and building a tough football team.  That means something there of course.

Does that make him the defacto coach?  No.  There is still the Roney Rule that must be observed, and a lot of soul searching.

I'm a little sadder this morning.

Lady Cowboy Fan has tested positive for the virus. She has a heart condition so she's an elevated risk case as well.

Her sister apparently had it when she came here for Christmas. She has various lung issues so her having those kinds of symptoms wasn't necessarily anything unusual.

I'm still negative so far.

Again way overblown. There is a rich history of NFL coaches who flamed out and were terrible.  The Panthers have had their share with the most recent being Rhule. Wilkes has already shown he is a leader of men and can elevate the play of those he coaches. What he needs to show to Tepper is that he can bring in some great assistants and develop a modern day offense.  But again with most folks saying he has done a good job and deserves a full time gig, you are out in left field like usual without a clue.

Nothing says modern day offense like wilks. This is really a moot point. There is no chance Tepper hires this guy full time and I’m going to love the melt that will happen once he is let go. Finally bright times ahead for this franchise.

Good news is the latest variants going around seem to be good at evading antibodies but haven't shown to be causing folks to get seriously ill or die even in many high risk cases. So hopefully you can avoid getting it and she should be good to go in a week. My mom is 84, 200 lbs overweight and has congestive heart failure. She has had Covid at least twice and frankly had only minor symptoms.. Good luck.

I don't think folks will melt down unless we hire a guy with no head coach experience and then screw up in the draft. I could see us hiring a guy like Reich or someone who is offensive minded but has experience running a team. I don't see Tepper hiring an unproven entity again and many of the young offensive minds are just that. For every Sean McVay there are plenty of Matt Rhules and Kliff Kingsburys who have flamed out or have struggled to do much.

Appreciated.

Lady Cowboy Fan works in the healthcare field, though she's generally not in a direct patient contact role. Even with that caveat, I'm kind of surprised she went this long without getting it.

Her sister doesn't have the greatest immune system. As she puts it "that woman could catch something from someone just passing by them while a breeze is blowing" 😕

5-6 with a team that won 11 out of 38 games... 

 

Let's not forget that and if you listen to the post game, at least one of the deep touchdowns was because a safety didn't play the coverage that was called. 

 

Let's not talk about Arizona,  he didn't get to pick his staff or have input on draft picks or free agency signings.

    • KC has a very good defense this year. It is 5th overall. Yes, still worse than last year, but their offense is considerably worse. Their passing D may be their "weakness" but they still allow fewer than 20 ppg. BY completed several deep passes yesterday, and he was able to threaten downfield in ways he didn't seem capable of before the benching. I'm not necessarily worried about his ability to connect deep anymore. What to me was impressive was that he did all this without a run game. We used the pass to set up what little running success we had. Wild.
    • Solid and fair assessment.   I will say, one of the big things I noticed yesterday was that he wasn't shy to step up into the pocket in the face of pressure.  He's trusting the IOL.  And they took care of Chris Jones yesterday.  We had clean pockets but also good success rate vs. pressure which just hasn't been the case with Bryce.   If he has more confidence the OL gets it done and he can navigate and step up for throws, that's huge.  It's one of the biggest things that's held him back.  He was previously bailing quickly and just too easily throwing away or making dead plays.     He was finding his 2nd to 3rd reads within structure/without bailing in the pocket.  That was nice to see, as much concern I have with him.  And the overall limitations will always be there. Time to back it up this week against the Bucs.  
    • Suddenly the Cowgirls look like our best chance for a win remaining. I think the Bucs are playing better than the Falcons of late.  Our lone game versus the dirty birds is in the ATL where we always struggle.  The Cardinals are marginally better than I thought they would be. We are not beating the Eagles, they are starting to roll. I'm saying two at most, next week at home versus the Bucs and the Cowgirls.
