That’s a good move for Wilks

That’s a good move for Wilks

Definitely. He'll be a Head Coach again in 2 years, if he just maintains their level of recent success.

And won’t the Niners get a draft pick if that happens?

I'm calling it right now, no way that defense plays as good with Wilks as with Ryan's being the DC. Wilks went to the Browns when he left here & they hated his defense.

To me, Wilks has too much meh in him. There’s a lack of sparkle in his play calling.

 

[JohnnyCakes]

he will immediately change their base formation, foolishly

Best news I’ve heard all week.

Well I predict the 49er defense will suck in no time. For my next prediction the 49ers won’t have a winning record until Wilks leaves.
