Dude, it isn't an opinion when the final score and story of the game makes it fact. I am glad you are optimistic. Send all the good vibes Rhule's way. I won't be blowing smoke up his ass (or Tepper's) ever.

After watching the first couple of seasons of Rhule coaching the Panthers are you really still hoping that these issues are cleaned up? They never have been in the past. I hope you are right, I hope they are. I am about out of faith.

I am just going to leave this thought here: Does it really take a great coach to know that Ike would need help against Garrett today? Look, I know sometimes you have to ask your players to bear down and go 1 on 1 with All-Pro players but you have to know you can't ask that a majority of the game. I suppose it is "trial by fire" for Ike and hopefully he'll grow from it, but it's just common sense. Fans don't get paid millions to understand the obvious. As a HC Rhule has to talk to his OC, Off Line coach, DC, etc. to all relate and come to a common conclusion on things that are so OBVIOUS. It's poor game planning that we've seen for 3 years now.

Really? This is your reply? I can expect the professional football team I am a fan of to be FAR better prepared and coached than what they showed today even against a Top 10 (not 5 IMO) defense. I guess I expect too much of well paid coaches who "coach" well paid players.

If we had a competent HC and OC they could have avoided all the 3 and outs and giving Cleveland the ball for most of the 1st half.

I will hate: I hate the fact that Rhule has any space to work with after such a poor overall performance by the team through 3 1/2 quarters. Now everyone wants to talk about the bad roughing the passer call (which was as terrible as they come), the whole Brissett spike debacle, and how the guys kept playing to come back. Rhule's feet should be held to the fire for the poor preseason preparation (juggling OL, not playing projected O and D lineups enough, etc.), the piss poor game planning we have been seeing over 3 years now, NO adjustments between possessions (give Ike more help with Garrett, run the ball some), and basically just continuing to show what a buffoon he is calling TOs when we have momentum and playing for a FG instead of trusting paid professionals to do their job. Instead of the above he gets to talk about bad calls and that we "had a chance." At least he had to address the center/QB exchanges, but he needs his ass roasted for this team looking like fuggin crap during his tenure.

I saw Horn lined up against the slot receiver way too much IMO. Also, thought he used his hands way too much today. I mean it's like his 4th NFL game (?) so we'll see how he evolves as the year goes on. Donte is way overrated (at least to some) and will be roasted by good QBs repeatedly over the course of this season. Henderson is like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. He covers really well and makes some good plays at times and then goes completely insane and starts thinking he's in WWE. Taylor is young, raw, and got roasted many times last year. Maybe with more time he becomes solid.

You'll come to your senses soon enough young one.

Cleveland going to run it into FG range.

Unfugging real...... We should not even be in this game. but DAYUM!!

You just using singular "mistake?" Rhule is a walking mistake.

You'd think Snow would know what personnel he has available to him though and TRY to coach to their strengths and not force feed his lame ass defensive schemes into the game plan? Hell, I would accept 1/3rd of Snow's salary and outperform him by not trying to run a 4-3 or a 3-3-5 with defensive players that aren't in the right positions.

I think a lot of us knew that the Browns should and most likely would run it down our throats. I am shocked we are even talking about being in this game. I am also shocked the Browns have thrown it as much as they have. Stefanski must know Rhule will just fug it up for us anyways so he can give Jacoby some reps.

We don't have the personnel for the 4-3....and that's due to Snow's genius (I am being sarcastic) and Rhule letting his boy do what he wants. They go 4 upfront and get pancaked - Burns is about 15 yards behind the QB every snap.

If the Panthers D is smart they should know some runs are coming. Unless the Browns are just dumb af.

Honestly, fire Rhule, Snow and the rest of the useless coaches and install a LEGIT NFL defensive scheme and play the year out like one big preseason. This is the most miserable I have ever been as a Panthers fan....at least when I knew we would suck we sucked or I was pleasantly surprised when they won or played well. Now it's like maybe these FA additions, trades, and decent draft picks and some tweaks can lead to some glimmer of hope. NOPE just fuggin pathetic, thanks Rhule and pecker head Tepper

I truly hope he is....really, I do.

I never assured you....I assured everyone I talked to that he was a scapegoat and a sacrifice to the almighty Tepper.

I mean we should help Ike out with our outstanding blocking TEs Ian Thomas and Tommy Tremble.

I don't necessarily think this team is devoid of talent, but it is painfully obvious that the head coach sucks ass and has from Day 1. I mean even coaches we considered that were good additions during the off season have had their units look like pure clinched butt cheek today. WTF is this show and how long do we suffer before limp dick Tepper either does something or sells this damn team to someone who will??

Ickey playing 1 v 1 against Garrett? I mean what did anyone expect?

Clowney and Garrett picked the over on points.

Why are we EVER running a 3-3-5 consistently in the fuggin NFL? They didn't address what a huge problem was last year on D and that was team's learning they could run on our asses all day long.

I turned the game off....I can't take this garbage anymore. The whole projected starting offense should have played together in the preseason because what we are seeing is atrocious.
