Well our idiot scouts and coaches thought Sam would be our franchise QB. We had him on a one year prove it deal only to fool other teams into thinking we might draft a QB. The instant the draft was over Sam received an outrageous $18m extension without having EVER proved anything on the football field. Losing seasons and nothing else. Just like with Teddy, the Panthers leadership though they were getting a bargain at that price. No other team was interested in Sam. Idiotic. We are now in the middle of what I had been warning about all along. QB limbo. Teddy started QB limbo for us by helping us win too many games to have our choice at QB in the draft. Sam pushed us too high in the draft as well, except this is a lame duck QB draft, so it doesn't matter. The next QB to come in will also extend QB limbo further unless that QB is Watson. Watson is the only QB we could reasonably obtain that would end QB limbo and allow out team to focus on building around him and actually winning. Otherwise QB limbo will likely continue until at the earliest the 2023 NFL draft. Even then if we win too many games with a new poop QB we'll miss our chance again.

If we don't get Watson then you know what's coming. 0-17.

So now we have thread whining about whining fans? Just shut the forum down. And I wish I didn't know what that song was about.

You might have to shoot.

Rhule looks like a giant toddler with a poorly grown beard. Snow looks like he just popped up out of a coffin. Ben looks like a sleazy used car salesman who will say anything to make the sale. But so what? Sean Payton looks like a turtle and I'd be thrilled if he would come here to coach. Looks don't matter.

I take back what I said about the guy who wrote the article. I'm just in a bad mood when I come on here and see these articles.

Both of them can't catch a football so they are evenly matched in skill.

I'm telling you now this guy doesn't have a clue what he's talking about and is making this stuff up imo. Lord of the dorks doesn't understand football and doesn't talk with Rhule or anyone important.

Look at this dork who wrote the article. Think he could throw or catch a football?

Sports journalists can pretty much write whatever and cite anonymous sources. They have zero standards. Case in point: Rhule was keeping a close eye on the Penn State situation, sources said, sources said.... who said?????? What do you want to bet he made that sh!t up? What is stopping him from making that sh!t up? Nothing. When a sports journalist cites anonymous sources that is when my BS radar goes on alert. That source could be: A.) NO ONE B.) ANYONE C.) MY GRANDMOTHER. D.) A TURD THAT WOULDN'T FLUSH. Things are bad enough, but now the sports writers are coming in like vultures with imaginary stories.

You would think with the amount of money Tepper made he'd be smart about owning a football team. No. Those two things have nothing to do with one another. Tepper is a moron football wise. Rhule is a creepy used car salesman who doesn't know what hes doing in the slightest and thought Sam Darnold was going to be a star here.

Watson would immediately make the Panthers competitive. Any other plan of action would be long term, like try to have a good team by 2024. I don't think Rhule is going anywhere unless next season is a disaster.

Couple of things. We are picking 6th not 7th. A trade down is unlikely imo due to a lack of interest in the players at our pick. There is no chance we are taking a center high with Pat in the middle of his $13.5m contract. I think we're looking at QB or LT at the 6th pick. A later round center wouldn't break my heart as an insurance plan in case Pat goes down again with injury.

I'd like Rob Chudzinski to be our OC again.

Rhule just had a bad plan. Blowing our draft picks of defensive players and bringing in a proven loser QB who no one wanted put us where we are now. I don't see any reason why next season's team would be good unless we land an excellent QB. You don't win with defense and we went all in on defense. Time wise I don't see anything happening until we land a good rookie QB and get him acclimated to our system, so 2024 at the earliest. It's over.

Good to see Panthers North kicking some ass.

If we didn't want Fields then we won't these guys in the upcoming draft either. The NFL is a passing competition and we don't have a decent QB, so you know what's coming next season. Get the lube.

Stop it! Washed up Cam is our unquestioned leader!

From what I heard Watson invoked his no trade clause to avoid coming to this dumpster fire back in November. I would have done the same. Who wants to come here and play in a empty stadium running for your life when you can go elsewhere?

We have a bad QB, a bad o-line, and terrible coordinators who get outsmarted on Sundays. Our defense underachieves and will easily surrender 30 something points against good teams, which might as well be 100 points with our offense. The upcoming draft will likely only yield one new starter on a team that needs multiple impact players just to move up to being competitive. We won't be able to do much in free agency, and the players we do need are known to be hard to find even with plenty of cap space. The way this team has been built is ass backwards. The outrageous amount of draft capital spent on our defense is a complete disaster considering our offense. The problem is compounded by the fact that our o-line coach was totally unable to teach our o-line much of anything, he's been fired but it took too long. The hardest things to find in the NFL are QBs and LTs. We need both. There isn't even a good QB prospect in the upcoming draft, so we're years away from even drafting a rookie. If we bring in another free agent QB then Rhule will be fired at the end of next season imo. 18,000,000 for Sam to be shown the door on the heels of Bridgewater would be curtains for Rhule. The Panthers have made so many mistakes that I don't know where to start. I guess take a LT with the 6th pick and go from there. Try and keep building toward a winner in 2024, and until then it's pretty much over.

I never thought he was going to be fired to start with and now.... my song:

The o-line was bad with stunts at the start of the season, middle of the season, and end of the season. The o-line coach has been fired because our o-line didn't learn anything all season. All those meetings and full time and overtime work, and they didn't learn to block stunts at all. Zero improvement. The o-line coach should be rehired and then fired again and tarred and feathered. The Huddle consensus was that we were going to draft Slater. Instead we took Horn and Sam got slaughtered instead of Slater. That was the one think that could NOT happen this season if we had any chance of being decent. A QB who was already traumatized and seeing ghosts was thrown to the wolves and all we got out of it was in injured DB. Now look at Sam. Look at his idiotic happy feet like he's stepping on hot coals before he throws. He was not even making reads he was just tossing it up or running for his life the instant there was trouble. He's ruined. Rhule ruined him, and he wasn't that good to start with. This season had me angry, then disengaged, and now and I'm angry again thinking back on our mistakes. What a disaster. It was all avoidable.
