Rhules' QB clusterfick

Recommended Posts

As I watched the game yesterday, I couldn't help but think of what a ficked up mess Rhule has created. Basically he cut Newton, brought in Bridgewater but then gave up after a single season but is still currently paying him 7 million to play with the Broncos, has already guaranteed Darnold 18.8 million to play next year and gave up a 2nd, 4th and 6th in the draft for him.

 

So to sum up, the Panthers/Rhule have spent 25 million as well as a give up a 2nd, 4th and 6th round draft pick to entertain us with that offensive display yesterday. That is just unacceptable and really makes me question his ability to make personnel decisions going forward.

Should have stuck with Teddy and let him be the Bridge (heck it's in his name) until you find an upgrade at Qb.

The offense would be able to play much more complimentary football with an improved defense, definitely would have a better record and still have our draft picks to boot.

Total mismanagement. 

For whatever reason him and Brady didn't get along. It was the reason they moved on. It seems now Darnald has lost faith as well. Pretty telling.

From Peter King's FMIA this morning, suggesting that our Darnold situation may not be as bad as it could be:

 I think the Thursday night game told me one other thing: For the 11th time in 16 years next March, the Denver Broncos are likely to be in the market for a long-term quarterback. I empathize with Teddy Bridgewater, playing hurt the way he’s doing right now. But either Bridgewater or Drew Lock is going to have to show a lot more than they have in the past three months to convince GM George Paton to not pursue again the quarterback of the future in Denver. Those the Broncos have tried: Jay Cutler, Kyle Orton, The Golden Calf of Bristol, Peyton Manning (a different story; they knew he’d give them three or four very good years, he did, but Manning never was the “long-term” guy), Brock Osweiler, Trevor Siemian, Paxton Lynch, Case Keenum, Joe Flacco, Drew Lock and Bridgewater.

Or, hear me out: should have never acquired Teddy or Darnold. Imagine that...

Exactly. I know hindsight is perfect but if they had, they probably would have had a similar record plus 25 million in cap space, a 2nd, 4th and a 6th round pick.

    • You're not reading.  This isn't about his college performance. It's about his NFL prospects. The Golden Calf of Bristol was one of the greatest college players of all time. That didn't mean he was a great NFL prospect. Hunter is an elite of the elite NFL CB prospect who was a great college WR too based primarily on absurd physical talent and just natural ball skills. Could he be an elite WR if he focused on that? Honestly, probably. But in terms of him being the best WR prospect in this draft? No. His skill set is just way too raw as a WR. He just looks way more natural and instinctual playing CB.
    • Yea...another Brooks move and I yelling. I'll reserve that till I see how many holes he fills in the draft. We all know our needs at this point.
    • AND THERE IT IS Thank you, because you posted this as I was typing up my previous response and you did EXACTLY what I said the Hunter defenders do. You're taking people having very legitimate concerns about how part of his game will translate to the NFL and making it into someone talking bad about him as a college player. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME THING Go back and read every post I made about him this year, I consistently said he's a true generational collegiate talent, one of the rarest of them all.  But that doesn't mean jack squat when it comes to evaluating what kind of player he'll be in the NFL, or even just what position is best for him. If you want to think differently, that's totally fair, but pointing to things like stats and awards is just making you look like you don't know what you're talking about, because they don't mean anything.  There are so many instances of players putting up elite stats in college but couldn't sniff being even a serviceable NFL player.  Which again, isn't what myself or others are saying about Hunter, but it's just the proof that looking at stats/awards is a fools errand when projecting NFL potential and impact.
