Wilkes is my choice for DC. Will have a chip on his shoulder after this year and determination to prove people wrong
Wilkes is my choice for DC. Will have a chip on his shoulder after this year and determination to prove people wrong
Reading several pages on his schemes and philosophy now. The one consistent is the amount of zone and pattern matching zone he plays. With certain personnel he gets blitz happy and others not so much. Appears to be pretty aggressive mostly running 1 gap assignments.
On the fence about it because I see how badly the Cardinals fell off in defensive DVOA rankings after only one season. But I also know that when you're offense puts your defense out on the field for 75% of the game, then they're bound to pack it up eventually.
Still reading and versing myself. Will comment more later.

And a really lovely confederate flag flying off the back with an old hound dog named Blue guarding it.?
Yes, but there are some quality features to the Dogpatch lifestyle: Daisy Duke was simply a takeoff of Daisy Mae.

Wilks record as DC in his one season in Carolina

- 18th-ranked pass defense, 229.1 yards per game
- 3rd-ranked run defense, 88.1 yard per game
- 50 sacks
- 21 turnovers

Meh. I"m 50/50 but will remain cautiously optimistic. I'll have to make a few camp dates this year now.

Well, If you look at the stats Williams D put up, I doubt Wilks could do much worse... Though going from press man to zone is a lot different... What was the talent level of Arizona's defense though? I'd have to look up the before\ after.

One season as the Panthers D-coord isn't a huge sample size. And as I said earlier, the Cardinals DVOA drop off is a bit whacky. If our defense ends up being right around the same as the 2017 Panthers (they gave up 30+ points only 3 times during the season and at most 34) then I'll be completely fine with that. I just want to make sure we engineer a good turnover rate and giving a young offense as many chances to succeed as possible.

Steve Wilks DC

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports the Browns are working on a deal to hire ex-Cardinals coach Steve Wilks as their defensive coordinator.
Wilks had a failed one-year stint in Arizona, but this is a strong addition to Freddie Kitchens's staff. It's not a terrible fallback for Wilks, who should have a head coach of the defense role. The Browns will keep their 4-3 system under Wilks, but his zone schemes should improve a Cleveland seconday that allowed the eighth-most yards in the league in 2018. -

Reading several pages on his schemes and philosophy now. The one consistent is the amount of zone and pattern matching zone he plays. With certain personnel he gets blitz happy and others not so much. Appears to be pretty aggressive mostly running 1 gap assignments.
On the fence about it because I see how badly the Cardinals fell off in defensive DVOA rankings after only one season. But I also know that when you're offense puts your defense out on the field for 75% of the game, then they're bound to pack it up eventually.
Still reading and versing myself. Will comment more later.

When you play 1 gap up front - you better have good LBers. Wilks had that in Carolina and his defense was successful.
What I like about zone coverage (aside from DBs not turning their backs on the QB) - is it doesn't give opposing offenses the Ray Hortonesque Ghost towns to exploit. That knucklehead used to repeatedly leave an entire third of the field unmanned. So, what do you need to make zone coverage work? LBs and DBs that can close and tackle. Keuchly not only has elite 1st step instinct; but he's also well respected for his level of preparation. It seems like quite a few of his opponents said something along the line of "that guy knew every play we were about to run; and he was never wrong."
It wouldn't suck at all if we hired Wilks. No matter who we hire - we have to improve the LBer Corps, upgrade 1 starting DT and 1 starting DE as well as add depth/talent to the secondary. That said, we have the FA cake and draft volume to make it happen.
I welcome the only Defensive Coordinator to earn a Superbowl Ring in New Orleans while understanding Revenge of the Nerds is a sequel. "Come get some!" -
Zona D outside of Patrick Peterson wasn't much - they lost calais campbell, they lost their rover DB Mathieu. They're so bad they just hired the useless Denver Vance Joseph to be their DC.. They had barely above-average seasons from DB Budda Baker / LB haason reddick / DL chandler jones.
As well, don't look now but someone named Pierre Desir was the 15th rated CB [ahead of Lattimore, Slay and others] in the entire league this season with Indy.

& we've all seen how that works out- you have one all-world corner. Who's he covering? Throw it the other way.

Maybe he will be able to convince Dorsey to find a way to get White out of LSU. He has greatness written all over him as an ILB with sideline to sideline speed and toughness to fill the inside gaps.
