TBF - Ruhle does not give me the used car salesman vibes. Not at all. When I think of a sleezy used car salesman Coach I’m talking about Calipari, Pitino, Mike Brey, Urban Meyer, Ed Ogeron. 
 

 

Well those guys are the cream of the crop right there, they even fit the bill down to their appearance.

I believe Rhule is more of a pathological liar… but who knows.

Can a coach get Djax not to get burnt by Mcclarin 2x or Get Burns to play the read option like he has most of the year??

Probably not… but the coach can probably one of the plethora of corners we’ve traded for, drafted, or signed and see if they fare any better.

Orrrrr… on obvious running downs role with Fox and YGM, or occasionally move Burns to a standing OLB position…

Just some thoughts…

If Rhule doesn’t want to make any changes he can join me up in the nosebleeds, we can enjoy some beers together and both be fans while someone else coaches the team.

I would rather go back to the Clausen year than subject myself to that.

That’s alright, when your brain evolves just realize that the Carolina’s have other sports teams that are solid.

Heinike made some plays today, no doubt… though it does make it easier to play QB when you can turn around and hand the ball off to Gibson, McKissic, an offensive lineman, and probably a fan, knowing that they’ll get at least five yards running it down our throat.

not jumping ... its just football... but ur good at twisting narrative to puff ur chest... if you can follow along... the convo was it really doesn't matter whos QBing..same results.

Just warning you… don’t read the “Big thanks to Cam Newton”’thread… you’ll get triggered, they are having fun in there.

Yea and now we have a lot of sunk cost in actual cap space and draft picks at the position that was there all along. Some of it its hindsight but you could argue that most of it isn't so the judgement of this can fairly be as harsh as you'd like to be.

facts!

It’s a lot easier to compete when you aren’t paying employees to work elsewhere.

We can compete with Cam even when the D straight up sucks. That's what I'm saying. Not trying to make you feel better.

Some people try to force you to go to their pity party even when you don’t want to go.

Oh well poo yea we didn't expect or at least didn't want the QB to start finger painting with his diarrhea. But a lot of people are now rightfully having a hard time coming to grips with having let Cam go in the first place as you can imagine this team with Cam from the start of the season and we don't lose those games and honestly would be sitting at 9-2 at worst.

This is the knife that cuts the deepest right here.

One can only wonder where we’d be if we had Cam since week one.

The contract is a valid argument. But I can’t help but wonder how much worse Turner would really be than the trash they’ve rolled out at RG since they traded him. 

Scott had a decent game last week. Unfortunately, the old ball coach trotted out John Miller this week and never gave Deonte Brown a chance.

Seems like that entire team had offensive line problems beyond Turner. Suddenly he’s serviceable on the Steelers?

Serviceable isn’t what we need anymore…

6 minutes ago, hepcat said:

I mean, did we?? Okung played in what, 7 games last year? Turner is still in the NFL and playing AVERAGE. 

FTFY

Not to mention he’s no longer on the contract that we gave him, he’s on a one year deal with the Steelers after an abysmal year with the Chargers.

If he would have had the same year with us that he had with the Chargers… let me just ask… have you seen the movie Old Yeller?

No we didn’t. We traded a guy who was in the prime of his career for a guy at the end just bc the guy at the end was at a more important position…then he ended up mostly sucking. 

***Tell me you didn’t watch Chargers games last year without telling me you didn’t watch Chargers games last year***

Prime of his career my ass… only thing prime was the steak and ribs ol’ buddy was throwing down from the poo ton of money we paid him.

Now imagine what today's game looks like with Sam Darnold at QB.

I want to poo this for making me imagine but I’ll let it slide.

Just now, hepcat said:

I guess Trai Turner is still a decent RG ranked 16 out of 39. Better than John Miller I’m sure. 

To be fair, we got the better end of that deal at first… Okung just prefers to dabble in crypto and stocks/bonds these days over grabbing grown men in their nether regions on Sunday and occasionally Monday and Thursday.

Just now, LinvilleGorge said:

Bingo. It's the coaches' job to get the players to do their job. If they can't, then they're not good coaches.

I’ll preface this by saying I’m a big fan of European football (soccer)… if these excuses were used over there they’d run the manager out in less than a week.

I find it comedic how long of a leash a lot of NFL coaches get. NHL and NBA coaches have already been fired or relieved of their duty 15 games into the seasons this year.

2 minutes ago, WOW!! said:

Can't blame coaches for players not doing their jobs..

This sounds like “missed opportunities”… mixed in with some “it is what it is”.

Not now Martin, this is a time of mourning.

I get 24 hours to complain about grown men playing a child’s game.

But in all seriousness, those are great points.

Henderson did lay the wood on someone today and of course Cam is back like he never left.

Hopefully they have an essay question on the next job application for the head coaching position of the Panthers asking how prospective coaches plan to use their timeouts.

If you want to talk about playoffs, we’ve already started doing that 16 games into an 82 game season over on the Canes board… feel free to join.

You mean to tell me what worked in college doesn't always work in the pros?

It took Joe Burrow a full year to learn an NFL offense well enough to where he looks like a decent QB.

Cam came in and learned enough of LSU’s playbook (in a week and a half) where he could play a full game in the NFL… something isn’t right here.

Ted Lasso ain’t walking through that door… this season is over.

Tepper quite literally said he saw himself in Rhule. That told me he tossed analytics and stats out the fuging window and hired his “guy” 

A used car salesman knows his kind, so I’m not shocked.

I hope Tepper took down those brass balls in his office because we’ve been neutered.

Rhule is completely in over his head, but he isn't a finished product. He may learn and get better.

 

Only question is does Tepper have the patience to find out?

Who exactly is going to teach him? Rhule had spent exactly one year in an NFL organization before getting the head coaching job of the Carolina Panthers… I know he’s buddies with Tom Coughlin and that makes me even more worried.

There’s not a whole lot of NFL experience on our coaching staff and it shows.

I definitely think coaches can learn but I’m not exactly sure who Rhule can learn from other than himself.

I LOVED the Brown pick but man, not gonna lie he's been underwhelming. Not the impact player I was expecting. You don't want a "good" DT in the top 10. You want a game wrecker. We haven't seen that from Brown.

 

I think at that pick that we were all hoping he’d somehow be a Suh (younger years without the dirty play) type of player.

If anything he’s been more Michael Brockers.

1 minute ago, LinvilleGorge said:

Yep. If you want to try to run to borders against us, best of luck. We have the speed to feast on that. But if you line up heavy and keep it between the tackles... uh oh.

Ol’ Derrick Brown was supposed to fix that… unfortunately he hasn’t and in the process we missed out on fixing the other side of the line with a player like Wirfs or Becton.
