Trading for Henderson was on Rhule. Rhule even said they were looking at him the year prior. I don't blame Fitt for that trade. I'm not sure who made the call on Darnold's 5th year option, but I doubt Fitt made that call all by himself though. So I'm willing to give him the benefit of a doubt to see what he can do with a new HC.

Sadly, it seems Tepper has already made up his mind to keep Rhule from various outlets. Nothing concrete, but it seems Tepper is leaning that way.

Only 5 days if showing no symptoms.

Built-in excuse for the loss.

I think keeping Rhule will be the final straw for most folks here, including myself. You can only be bullsh!tted by a bullsh!t artist for so long. Either that or Tepper just doesn't want to own up to his huge blunder and is doubling down in hopes to prove himself right and everyone else wrong. We keep beating a dead horse, but you don't give college coach unproven in the NFL a 7-year deal with complete control. That was beyond moronic.

If you count ten wins in two years as success, then sure. Only one of those wins were against a team with a winning record. Even that was against a depleted Cardinals squad this year as they were missing their QB, WR and others.

Read somewhere the Jags are looking at Pederson, Leftwich and Caldwell.

Merry Christmas all!

Does Pickett have small hands? You know, small hands and QBs are a no-go. Kinda like short-armed tackles.

Wouldn't mind him one bit if the tackles are gone.

The fans get it, why can't this freaking coaching staff? This is a simulator site and the three most drafted players so far in first round simulations.

Surely that pick will be a corner. Why? That's how we roll. Eventually Rhule wants Snow to unveil a 3-0-8 formation called 'fifty cents'.

Sure he does, they all went to Baylor and Temple.

If Rhule actually regresses and has a worse season (yes--same win total, but with an additional loss) I can't say I'll watch next year. If we lose out, and I expect we will, this year's squad under Rhule would have gone 2-12 after that fluky 3-0 start. Grasp this for a moment (assuming nothing changes) since week 3, the DETROIT LIONS have a better record than we do . Did you all catch that? The freaking Detroit Lions!

Ad blockers are a wonderful thing! The only bad thing is some sites detect it and a pop-up window asks you to disable it, lol! Not on here though.

Buffalo; Tre Boston tweeted it out as he's still close with several former Panthers players on their roster. The onus is on you to find the tweet as I refuse to burn the time to dig for it, but it was posted here somewhere. I really could care less if you believe it or not.

I wonder if the organization knows the laughing stock they have become or if they are 'blocking the outside noise?' When former players and other team's players are openly mocking your head coach because of his incompetence, that's beyond humiliating.

If Rhule's retained, I am not renewing my PSLs. I'm going to enjoy the conversation when the organization calls me and asks why. Yes, they actually call if you are severely late with you PSL payment. I won't be rude, just VERY, VERY frank.

If Rhule is retained, I'm not sure I'll watch any games next year. Tepper cannot read a room. The sad part is if this doofus wins more than 5 games next year he can point to progress and justify a year 4. At that point I'll tune out until he's no longer on the Panthers. I hated the hire to begin with because history is not on the side of college coaches making the leap to the NFL. A simple internet search by Tepper about college coaches busting big time at this level and he would realized he was not making a wise choice.

Personal opinion or actual knowledge of the situation?

Tampa's entire roster comes down with Covid and has to forfeit? Yeah, that's the only likely scenario for a win.

If Rhule is here after January, Tepper needs to fire himself. This team has unquestionably regressed. Building implies structure, a foundation for bigger things. The team looks disinterested. That will happen when you only have two wins since week 3. The dude is out of his League, literally. He should be able to land on his feet back in college and "actually" build something there. Rhule is a lost cause in the NFL.

My point exactly. This is the weakest QB draft class in several years.

If we lose out and the Giants and Bears somehow win one more game, we pick 5th. We should have our choice of the #2 LT prospect.

New coach, rebuilding, no identity. Yes, they have a few pieces on the OL, but that is far from their only issue. My point was no matter how good a rookie QB prospect is, bringing him into the scenario like I listed (in our case horrible OL too) is setting the guy up for utter failure. That's why I can't wrap my head around these people pounding the table for a QB. My only thought is: QB=Super important, therefore it's the automatic default option, especially to those that don't follow the draft process.
