Rhule has Tepper by the short hairs...

He signed this guy to a seven year deal for high $$$$. I know Tepper has the bucks, but having to buy this guy out to get rid of him will cost big money... plus a shot to his ego. I'm sure Tepper isn't used to losing in business.

To lose with a lousy team and then to have to pay out the ass to can the guy you raved about that put the team together.....is real kick in the nutz. Hope he learns something from this fiasco.

 

But probably not....

It’s still early but the seat is warm.

Ron’s seat was in fire after EJ Manuel led Bills team won with the walkoff TD then Riverboat was born. 

But Riverboat was rudderless without an athletic monster like Cam Newton. He had a damn good defensive coordinator who has ended up making an even better head coach too.

And? They still were losing games they shouldn’t at that point in year 3 and figured out a way to turn it around.

They had some bad losses but the offense then to now is night and day at least Cam could get you some big plays. Sam is somehow worse with his decision making when he has time. It's clear our offensive players do not believe in Darnold. Rhule and Fitterer made this mess. At least Ron had the balls to draft Cam despite talking heads saying he wasn't even the best qb in the draft. Rhule chose to put all his chips in on Darnold and baby him. Barf.

He really doesn't. Rhule signed a 7 year, $60M contract. After this season, $17M of that is already sunk so there's "only" $43M left? You really think Tepper is gonna let $43M stand in his way of parting with the guy torpedoing his $2.2B investment in the Panthers? If Tepper becomes convinced that Rhule is the problem he's gone.

Big money to most people.  To Tepper, meh.  I mean he wouldn't just throw that much away, but he doesn't have to worry about paying the grocery bill next month if he fires Rhule.  The question will be if he thinks he can get someone better, or if Rhule still has a shot to improve the team?

      Snow in the high country

      By rayzor · Posted

      yeah. winter backpacking trips were the most miserable and amazing experiences. same with the coldest and snowiest hunting  experiences. i love being in it. makes for incredible memories. the worse it was, the more i ended up loving it. made the greatest memories.  i just want to get out of it afterwards.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      I forgot about Jackson...definitely elite.  The sad part of your list is that 2 of them were 'there for the taking for the Panthers'.  Rumor has it that Hurney loved Herbert and was vetoed on trying to trade up.  And rumor has it that Frank & McCown wanted Stroud.  I believe both rumors.

      Snow in the high country

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
