Win or lose today, Panthers’ DC Steve Wilks likely to interview Monday for Giants’ HC, per source. A Panthers’ win or loss today will determine how many HC interviews Wilks takes this week.

But here's a video of Wilks taking football. Just a weekly press conference, but he talks general defensive philosophy a bit. Easy to envision him being able to command a room, imo.

"The physicality of your defense is not based off your front 7 -- it's how well your corners tackle."

This is actually New news

when he'll go on a rant about Ronnie Barnes next.

One question - Why was Perry Fewell fired? Not black enough to be forced on us?

Racist much?
Dosent really matter  
Alwaysblue22 : 1/7/2018 8:28 pm : link
who the next coach is ..as long as he is not married to a single offensive approach like Mac a--whats his name again? In this regard, the Giants will probably do better hiring someone who was a DC and not a OC. I think a former DC will be more flexible in his approach depending upon the perceived weakness of the opponent's defense.
Calling plays from the booth  
Jarvis : 1/7/2018 8:36 pm : link
My biggest concern with Wilks is that his only year as DC, he called all the plays from the booth.

“My first year, I’m going to do it from up top. I know a lot of guys do it from the field, but I want to be up there so I can see things and get ready for the next call, away from the sideline with all the emotion and hoopla. I’ll be focused and locked in.

“You miss the aspect of being able to look into the guys’ eyes and see exactly how they’re feeling and what they’re thinking, but that’s where trust in your coaches and communication between the booth and the sideline comes in. So on the whole, being up in the booth is more conducive for me.” - Steve Wilks
the nice thing about Wilks as HC  
Dr. D : 1/7/2018 8:54 pm : link
is because he's a defensive coach, we won't need a QB, at least according to the dude on the other thread. So we'd have that going for us.. Think of how much cap money we could save!
I dont know if Booth experience  
Alwaysblue22 : 1/7/2018 9:01 pm : link
instead of Field experience really makes that big of a difference. I think that the HC's mental approach to the game is the most important thing. Wilkes seems to have a good hold on how to approach each opponent separately, and that is what a successful HC needs to do. If you are talking about length of experience, the fact he has been doing it for only one year is something that could way against him. We will have to see how it all pans out.
Steve Wilks sounds like a good honest guy  
Fishmanjim57 : 1/7/2018 10:35 pm : link
I liked the presser that was posted. If he's a good possible head coach of Big Blue, I think I'll like what he can accomplish. His defence in Carolina was pretty damn good, and he seems like a bright guy.
I want the Giants to be a tough team again, not the bunch of wimps they became under McAdoo & Spags!
