That's what I call planting your flag in the ground.
Gutsy move...?? Well, yes. It was a gutsy move.........by Tepper.!! It sort of puts Wilks on the spot though. Man Up--- Grow a Pair--- Let's See What Ya Got---.. ESPECIALLY considering the class-action lawsuit against the NFL, and the fact that Steve Wilks joined that action as a plaintive. Do you see what I mean.?? What choice did Wilks have.??
Wilks getting rid of Snow (and Foley..) was a foregone conclusion. Had to happen or the spectre of Rhule would hang around the locker room and cause a lot of grief going forward. So, "planting your flag...", yes, definitely. But really, what other option was there available.??
It's a chance for Wilks, but it's a setup too. Setting him up to fail..... against the toughest competition schedule I've seen in a while. And without a solid QB to lead the team. It's going to be "a difficult row..."
I'm pulling for him. I think he was absolutely the best choice under the circumstances. Wilks is smart, and tough, he won't take any crap, and he won't quit. What more could you ask for..??
