So I had my air unit leak water all over in my basement, so I had a guy come out and look at it. 

 

After he fixed the issue, on his way out I was watching the highlights to the recent Panthers loss to the Vikings. (Im so upset. Now we are in a better position to draft a franchise QB in a wonky covid season. We need to win meaningless games! I digress). He also saw all my panthers poo down in the basement. He said to me .. "SLYYYEEEEE" and shook his head. I told him "yeah man, Im a tech fan, Ive seen him choke there, and I'm seeing him choke here". He goes "AHH well it was a 57 yarder...  Actually my buddy is good friends with him, they played together at tech. I ended up playing Call of Duty with him the other week. Cool guy. I talked with him, he said that the players LOOOOVVE Matt Rhule and that he thinks hes going to attract a lot of players looking for a coach to believe in, that he's never been around a coach that gets players to buy in as much as Rhule has" ....

 

I believe it. We are building something special in Carolina. Losses suck, but the wins will come. Build that culture, build that core. Coordinators will come and go, but that guy is a leader of men and I truly believe we have the chance to be the next DYNASTY

Rhule has made some rookie coaching moves and I wish they were far better at time management. This waiting to snap the ball at zero on the play clock is getting old but I do believe he has the makeup to build a very good team. There were several plays on Sunday I thought we were going to get a delay of game penalty. 

This team should not have been competitive at all especially with the loss of CMC for most of the season. The only explanation is that Rhule has the locker room and those guys playing well above what our talent level says we should. 

I am in 100% agreement that in the next couple of years you are going to see the Panther's continually fighting for the NFCS title.

Believe it or not, the whole waiting to snap the ball has thought behind it.  Early in the season, we were not doing this.  In fact, I remember a handful of posts here commenting on it.  However, what was grossly obvious early on is that we were getting KILLED in time of possession.  Our defense was spending far too much time on the field, and our defense isn't super talented.

What I've noticed as the season has progressed is that we are getting slower to snap the ball, but our ToP is greatly increasing.  I think this is our coaching making an adjustment to try to protect our rather fragile defense.  Certainly there are a few instances where it's clearly a  mistake, however the overall trend I believe is intentional and fit to a purpose.

I would believe it.

 However the only thing I question is that the stars of the team are sharing their opinions with the kicker. I have no doubt slye believes that. But does he actually have insight into Moore, moton, Chinn etc. thought process and feelings?

Agree with this completely. Was so frustrating the last few years getting to the line with 5 seconds remaining, with no time to make adjustments and frequently having to call unnecessary timeouts. It also almost completely removed the ability to catch defences offside, allowing them tee off perfectly as the ball is snapped.

At the start of this season, getting to the line earlier was one of the most improved aspects of the offense. Allowing Teddy to read the defence, use hard counts etc. For me, this was one of the most encouraging signs about our new coaching staff. Taking the clock down to zero started to stand out in the Kansas City game. Keeping the KC offense off the field is almost the only way you can beat them (and it almost worked). The coaching staff clearly identified this as a good way of prolonging drives and protecting the defence. I'm hoping that as the defence improves, confidence in their ability to get off the field will improve and we will revert back to the clock management from earlier in the season.

I also believe Rhule is going to turn this franchise around. He's learning of how it goes in the NFL too. Charlotte as a city attracts a lot of players who retire to hear and like to raise their families here. All of that will attract better players. I can only image what 2021 will bring with a off-season, training camp, preseason, some draft picks and few FA signings.

This is really insightful. I hadn't thought of that being the reasoning behind it. It does make sense and the evidence is there for sure.  Thanks for  putting that idea out into the discussion!

Players loved Rivera too. I don’t think this matters that much because I bet a lot of players like their coach. Yea there’s a few notable asshole coaches out there but what really matters is winning. I don’t want a lovable loser.

That said, Rhule has the team playing hard every game and that’s great. Hopefully with more talent the Panthers can start winning again.

      2025 Mock Drafts

      I think it will be hard to not go edge in the second if we go QB first. Say you have Starks, one of Bond/Egbuka, and maybe one Edge (don't have a name to throw out that is end of 1st round projected and may slide)... do you still go Starks? Just curious. I haven't looked into starks much, as I've been focused on QB, WR, and DL prospects.
