I won’t be excited again until at least Rhule and everyone he’s hired is gone. I might never be excited about this team again as long as Tepper owns the team though

well in all fairness we needed one last year too and they decided to trade for a guy that already sucked

There's a real tangible chance the 49ers will be drafting #1 overall with the Panthers 2023 draft pick they traded away for Jimmy Garropolo.

slightly unrelated username reference comment

No no you misunderstood him. Scott Fitterer is in on every buffet deal

Yea I agree with this. It was time for Rivera to go, but hiring Rhule was a massive mistake. Can't fault Rivera for shooting his shot! Every player has a price - even the best.

Forreal And I wonder what people are going to say about Rhule after the Panthers are one of the worst teams in the NFL yet again in 2022. At a certain point you just aren't what a select few people say you are.

Same vibe I got. The Matt Rhule cult is freaking bizarre. He seems to have collected a bunch of misfit coaches and players over the course of his career and they're all infatuated with him. He has some sort of voodoo magic speaking ability that obviously worked on Tepper and Marty Hurney too. The rest of the NFL sees him as an amateurish joke.

Thompson is clearly one of the biggest Matt Rhule fanboys on the planet, having played for Rhule at Temple and now Rhule gifting him a 53 man roster spot he might not have gotten on any other team (sorry bro being real with you). He stuck up for Rhule many times in the thread. And of course he would, I don't blame him.

Reddick's on Twitter saying he didn't struggle against the run. I went back and watched a few highlights against teams that ran all over the defense. Just on my quick glances, Brian Burns is f*cking TERRIBLE against the run. But that's just my dumbass assessment. I saw his ass on the ground more than any other player on the defense. Washington specifically ran towards Brian Burns/Marquis Haynes's side. Cowboys just demolished the entire Panthers D-Line Patriots schemed the defense into hell Bucs bodied up every Panthers player and put them on the ground It's just a tiny defense that can't win 1 on 1 matchups

From what Fitterer also said, McAdoo apparently likes Thomas and has a plan for him. Who knows. I'll stash him on my fantasy football roster bench for sh*ts

If they signed him to that big of a contract because he's a good locker room guy this team is actively trying to lose.

Yea forreal wtf was that contract extension about? Tommy Tremble doesn't suck at blocking.

gilmore is old and injury prone. he would have fit in great on the bucs. doesn't fit on this trash team

of equal value yea, like the 3rd they lost signing bridgewater when they lost bradberry

fair point

he wins both tho

Trubisky has more potential than any of the rookies. Spent a year with a winning franchise re-tooling his game. If he goes into the right situation (Colts maybe?) I bet he lights it up.

I honestly don't wish for any player come to the Carolina Panthers. What a death sentence for a career. It's only the right fit for a player with little expectation of being good or winning games.

does matt rhule count

I'm sure you'll be fine. I know it hurts right now but it's usually a very good time to take some self-care time and reflect on your life and career. I know lots of people who have gotten laid off and ended up getting better paid jobs in healthier situations.

lucky y'all, in TX it's an at-will employment state and there's no laws requiring employers to pay out accrued PTO

What a loser hahahaha

Lol but did he get away?

Matt Rhule is always a day late and a dollar short so he'll probably draft a LB or something dumb
