let Rhule go to southern cal or LSU at seasons end it won’t happen but I can hope Byron Leftwich is who I want for this team he is young, played Qb in this league…,learned his craft and improved his craft under Arians in he NFL, not the ncaa he is well respected in Tampa by the players he would bring a nfl staff here there are no negatives I have seen enough of Rhule I can’t believe others have not as well as the coaching against the better teams isn’t there and I’m telling you had those two main stars been playing in ‘Zona, different outcome

They have won a few in a row right…Tua is playing better Their WR1, TE and RB are pretty good

Over two years, The coaching staff does not exude competency to many fans The players assembled by the coaches do not seem to do well against bigger lines the team does not seem to have the guts to hit back when punched in the face Not angry enough about their situation or poor game plans make it impossible or maybe they just aren’t good enough Or smart enough These things combined doesn’t exactly inspire excitement later in the season, good teams get better. Bad teams get worse Their losing to truly mediocre teams has been enough for me. I’ll watch them because I love the NFL but that’s it. That defensive effort last week against a not great Washington team told me all I need to know could be worse, could be the Bears

He is being paid like a Super Bowl coach he wasn’t even a big time college coach nor did Temple or Baylor exactly set the college bowl/playoff world on fire If anything, it is concerning that Tepper would chase this used car salesman

Value. Relative value to his peers suggests he is a top tier NFL coach. He isn’t https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/sports/nbcsports/who-are-the-highest-paid-coaches-in-the-nfl-in-2021-season/2636720/ Matt Rhule did nothing in college to justify this NFL salary. He has done nothing in the NFL to prove he is worth that salary and prospects going forward aren’t too promising either Anyone who thinks he doesn’t run all there is to run with the Panthers is mistaken. He sold Tepper his process bullshit and Tepper bought in the person who,would be a tremendous HC for the Panthers is Byron Leftwich, actually played the game, actually has coached and is coaching the Bucs offense now, and is learning with Arians

Yep. Our $28 million receiver

sorry I appreciate your thoughts and taking the time to put this together But The buck stops with the head coach. the $65 million head coach. period His staff. His players his team. His record his process his system would people liking this post on this board have this sentiment if it where Ron or John Fox

I agree Think of the possibilities if he had just kept his mouth shut about Bridgewater coach speak is one thing running his mouth constantly is some thing else never trust a head coach who talks this much. The nfl is high states poker and every had of his has been a loser

I would vote for Byron Leftwich here. He is young. Learned a lot from Arians I’m sure Would bring a good staff has played and coached the game I’m sick of the Baylor show

No I’m thinking of Moore and CMC they are both blue chip players, not drafted by Rhule I don’t see any blue chip players drafted by Rhule. Horn may be but who knows Brady might be a steal but who knows Honestly on defense, it’s a struggle outside of Gilmore and Reddick. More and more, Burns is a one trick pony. As for Shaq, this last week, I think it had more to do with Snow’s schemes than anything else. Brown is forgettable

I feel this strongly I’m sick of hearing. Quote. ‘ Congratulations to the other team. We shot ourselves in the foot. We did not execute. We had too many penalties’ im also sick of there never even being a hint of a long pass. One of the advantages of being at the stadium is seeing the whole field More than once, Washington 5 5 1 defensive setup Btw, it was no different with other QBS I don’t know if it’s Rhule, Brady. The oline They will never beat a decent team without the willingness to at least THREATEN the long ball dont get me started on Snow’s personnel groupings the blueprint on the Panthers o an d are out there and this coaching staff is not capable of adjusting to it

Yeah. The same Cam on the sidelines trying to get people to be louder for that sorry ass defense Sunday the Panthers have coaching problems, and talent positional value and evaluation issues, not Cam issues

What a waste of some talented players.

I wouldn’t be putting any money on that one as the NFC East, all of the teams, plus Minnesota, plus the Pats have put the blueprint out on how to beat the ever so fabulous brain trust of Matt Rhule

People say Rhule is rebuilding I just have no idea what he is building the fact is, just like a house, you start with the foundation…the lines…he has a dline that gets pushed around against the big boys hit them in the mouth and they don’t hit back. He has a horrible oline He brings back Cam, I believe to keep from getting lynched honestly, that defense yesterday, looked like they quit. The frustration of feeling that Tepper missed on this coaching staff is overwhelming

Article from Cat Crave. I’m posting number 5 first It is simple and straightforward https://catcrave.com/2021/11/21/5-major-factors-blame-carolina-panthers-loss-washington/5/ 5. Carolina Panthers were outcoached This would have been incredibly satisfying for Ron Rivera, who got one over on the team that fired him on his first visit back to Bank of America Stadium. It was a masterful gameplan for the head coach, who snuffed out pretty quickly what the Carolina Panthers were doing on offense and knew exactly where to attack the defensive side of things thanks to his previous knowledge of some personnel. These smooth adjustments made a significant difference as the game went on. Something Matt Rhule and his staff couldn’t match and this ongoing complication is holding the Panthers back. That’s the long and short of it, really. Making excuses for poor execution and sloppy situational football is all well and good and might fly in other organizations. But not when it occurs most weeks. Rhule is no longer a rookie head coach learning his craft. So it’s about time he started acting like it and start making the correct in-game adjustments that counteract what the other team is doing and provide a spark that simply isn’t there for the Panthers immediately after the halftime break. Until this happens, the Panthers will only get so far. If last weekend’s shock win at the Arizona Cardinals was their most complete display of 2021, then this one saw them revert to type. 4. Carolina Panthers had no answer for Terry McLaurin Curtis Samuel was unable to prove his fitness and take the field against his former team. But one wide receiver stood up and made his presence felt from start to finish. The Washington Football Team was depending on Terry McLaurin more than ever before. And he delivered with a special performance that further enhanced his reputation as one of the league’s brightest young players at the position. McLaurin gave Donte Jackson and the Carolina Panthers an untold amount of problems. One that didn’t really get solved unless All-Pro cornerback Stephon Gilmore was matched up against him. Just why Gilmore didn’t get this responsibility prominently was bemusing. But the Panthers are clearly limiting the corner’s snaps as he continues to work his way back from a torn quad. Blown coverages and miscommunication didn’t exactly help, either. The Ohio State product’s stat line of five receptions for 103 receiving yards and a touchdown could have been more had Taylor Heinicke connected with McLaurin when open. Washington also got plenty of success in the run game that meant the passing attack wasn’t needed all that much. Everyone who matched up with him had a tough time outside of Gilmore. In Jackson’s case, this was his most disappointing performance of 2021 by a considerable margin. 3. Carolina Panthers struggled on 3rd down It was a bad afternoon for the Carolina Panthers on third down. This was a problem on both sides of the football and something that played a leading role in their eventual demise. You aren’t going to win much going 2-9 on third down and 1-3 on fourth down. Although quarterback Cam Newton played well considering his limited knowledge of the playbook with just one week of practice to go off. Just bad execution in key moments coupled with poor situational football. And when one examines the Panthers’ efforts in 2021, these will be two areas that deserve to be scrutinized heavily. If that wasn’t enough, the defense just couldn’t get Washington off the field. Something they can take advantage of with Taylor Heinicke under center as was proven in their upset win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 10. Washington went 6-13 on third down and a perfect 2-2 on fourth-down conversions. The fact they managed to move the chains from a 3rd-and-21 situation in the second half was unacceptable and a microcosm of how things went for Carolina in this statistical category. Back to the drawing board, one suspects. But these problems are ongoing and it comes down to coaching staff adjustments – or a lack thereof – to get better. 2. Carolina Panthers couldn’t stop the run Phil Snow’s defense was conceding 107 yards per game on the ground before Sunday. But it’s also worth noting that they’ve shopped substantial yardage against the run in almost every defeat this season. Something that proved to be the case once again in Week 11. The Carolina Panthers were porous stopping the run. And things looked promising early on when they forced Antonio Gibson into a red-zone fumble. After that, it was one-way traffic as Washington’s offensive line had their way with Carolina’s defensive front en route to 190 rushing yards from 40 total carries. Simply put, it was not good enough. And the Panthers defense sure picked a day to have their most lethargic performance of the campaign. Hopefully, this is just a small bump in the road and they can get back on track next weekend at the Miami Dolphins. But run-stopping has become a problem when things aren’t going the Panthers’ way at times. What made matters worse was Washington’s offensive line being banged up and still managing to generate push consistently. Carolina’s defensive front just wasn’t at the races and it was too much for the offense to overcome. 1. Penalties cost the Carolina Panthers in big moments Remember the “Don’t Beat Ourselves” sign that was prominent across training camp? Well, the message continues to get ignored if this game was any indication. The Panthers were once again victims of their own demise with costly penalties in key moments. This halted their momentum just enough for Washington to hold on and gain revenge for Ron Rivera. Carolina gave up seven penalties for 65 yards throughout the contest. Although this was fewer than Washington on the day, it was the timing of the infringements that made a massive difference. A lack of discipline cost the Panthers in a big way. And in all honesty, not for the first time this season.

I was at the stadium and losing my mind over this

Lol. I know, right

To be lucky enough to be there, very grateful. An amazing experience

They published the tenets a week ago I think I saw it on a Facebook group. One person said it sounded like the Patriots He best look in the mirror with how mediocre his coaching is before he starts talking about brand

‘Premature’ Lol As is said, ‘you can put lipstick on a pig but it’s still a pig’ it should Not take too long to realize what Rhule is and what he should have stayed. Hope to wake up on Jan 5 to ‘Rhule and Tepper have amicably agree to split and Rhule is off to USC’

You are being kind…admirable brady has sucked routinely. Teams have caught on it takes a damned miracle to score these days how many throws on first down….let’s start there

Thank you. That was my point Gilmore should have been glued to 17. Period. End of story

I did too. It was awful and to be clear this had nothing to do with yelling for the players it’s actually better than it was in September

Exactly the list of bad play calls on both sides of the ball were egregious Rhule can take his ass and his staff to the ncaa
