The obsession with Wilks by this fanbase for going 6-6 drives me insane. 

its over, he cant hurt us anymore. Hoping he goes to ATL to be the DC.

I wonder how Reich would handle Anthony Richardson if they can’t trade up.

I can't tell if the people in this thread that are excited about Reich are actually excited about having Reich or are just excited it isn't Wilks.

Honestly, this is a pretty meh hire. I think he will be something like a RR results wise - might get us to the playoffs 1 out of 3 years and won't do much of anything in the playoffs (unless he finds an elite QB to carry him).

Little of column A. Little of column B.

They better trade up and get their guy this draft 

I’d like to think both the Panthers and Reich are tired of throwing darts at the QB board

This again proves my point that there are far more average to poor coaches in pro sports than there are good ones. 
 

one of the worst days in franchise history.

I hear you but thats going to be pricey.   Would love to think we could get someone at 9 to be the man

I hope Reich can retain Campen and Tabor. That would be a good start for his staff.

Note to Jacob Eason:

Say hi to your old/new coach.

It's only temporary. Anyone brought in will only start until one of the rookies are ready. 

There are competent game managing QB's expected to be available in free agency, however. Why spend on an incompetent one?

[fjblair]

Uninspired retread hire. Low hanging fruit. 

Obviously an improvement over Rhule but Tepper never fails to fail. Wilks earned the job, but that's too out of the box for the stodgy NFL, and Tepper is incapable of original thought. He is a follower,who hired the incompetent Rhule because he was the new shiny object.

I don't hate Steve Wilks; what I hate is the borderline obsession a portion of this fan base has with him and the "smash mouth" style he represents.

It's not 1995 anymore, folks. I remember when the fans complained non-stop about "Foxball" and wanted a modern NFL offense. Nowadays Matt Rhule has folks so shell-shocked they're begging to go right back to it.

Reich was far from my first choice (Steichen) but my priority was getting an offensive-minded HC and he does fit that.

McVay looked like a dweeb this year without superior talent on the offense. It doesn't matter who the coach is if you don't have a QB, or incredible talent. And to that point, you could argue that Wilks coached the BEST VERSION OF SAM DARNOLD throughout the end of the season.

The same FO that hired Matt Rhule?  /cdn-cgi/mirage/020c0f87d61c068f33a4ff78c891995c10b9506773413970b538114a60ede8ec/1280/https://media1.giphy.com/media/l3q2K5jinAlChoCLS/200.gif

Well that credit goes to a previous FO, thankfully.
