Truth is Rhule needs to go.

I don't think he will but there is certainly plenty of precedent for canning a coach after 2-years or less...

If Tepper thinks it is the right move the buyout won't be an impediment in any way -- simply loose change in the car seat on a relative basis for him.

I cannot see Rhule getting fired with the massive contract he has. It could he a buyout if he and Tepper both agree. I don’t see firing Brady only to promote Sean Ryan to offensive coordinator, he hasn’t exactly impressed me as a quarterback coach. Putting together a coaching staff without more seasoned coaches on the staff has been a misstep.  I do think Fitterer will be ok long term. I believe Rhule controlled draft picks as much or more than Fitterer. Remember the joke about Matt Rhule’s wife liking Chiba Hubbard, asking for him to be a draft pick? Might be one of the more solid picks. I don’t think the personnel on this team is awful. Draft or sign some decent O. Lineman and with a middle of the road quarterback this team is at least a .500 ball club.

Rhule can be fired at any time. It's a matter of Tepper pulling the trigger. All he has to do is pay Rhule what he owes him.

If nothing comes of this rumor it will just be another thing to add to the laundry list of annoyances this team causes Panthers fans. 

Looks like nothing is coming from it. It’s Tuesday and we still have the same lame ass staff with zero shake up.

1.  It's been one day.  It's technically still "this week".  In fact it will probably be still "this week" for several more days now.

2.  That said, nothing is happening this week with the staff. 🙄

expectations were far too high for this season, the team, and Darnold.  This is a work in progress.  Early season success had created an opportunity for disappointment.  Come down off the ledge.  It's going to be ok.  Lets finish rebuilding the team, get atleast a full year to have the team gel together before we allow those super bowl expectations to sneak back in.

The reality is the team has no one to blame but the decision not to put a better oline Infront of Sam.  His poor performances can be directly tied to the oline problems.  How could they expect Sam to improve behind the line he has been playing behind.  And it only gets worse at this point.

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Everyone talks about the most important positions on a football team… backup LT is in the top 10.  Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
