I think we will know this answer soon.
I’m a little torn on this one. I like Wilks and the way he tries to command the situation that he is in. Players seem to like him but they like winning more than anything and Wilks is not proven in that area. However, until you have been given that chance you can’t achieve it. His time in Arizona concerns me most. It was his only NFL to be part of an off-season, a draft, a preseason… and the results were just not a pretty site.
I personally think his opportunity is 50/50.
However, I think if you keep Wilks because of the last twelve games, you keep Holcomb and you keep McAdoo…they were just as deserving in helping to accomplish that record as Wilks was… and he choose to keep them as he was supposedly given free reins. So if you feel there was some positive chemistry there you can rock that boat, you buy in and roll on. I’m not a McAdoo fan but it is what it is and we could do worse. In fact, I think a couple of those 6 wins could be pinned directly on McAdoo and their game plan. Hard to over look that.
Curious to see how this unfolds. But my guess is, if Tepper feels we can be competitive Wilks stays and if not we go after another (I like Ryans) but we completely start a new rebuilding program.
