The concerning things about all this...

[cardiackat88.]

I honestly kinda got Rivera flashbacks when Sam was seemingly suddenly ready to go after having his bell rung and his shoulder nearly torn off.

McCaffery as much as a game changer he is, really should have been super eased back into the role and used as a major decoy.

I was expecting the game to mainly be a bunch of handoffs to Hubbard.

If Rhule came out and said "Sam hasn't played well enough to win, we want to give PJ a shot to see what he does" it would have gone over a lot better than the way he fuged up this entire situation. He's now attempting to be a coward and cover his terrible decisions by letting on that Darnold is more hurt than he really is. This is the same type of dishonesty that we've seen from him since he mishandled the whole Cam situation.  It's getting old and tired at this point.

QB situation is so bad that the some in the media are suggesting a "vinney" moment by drafting Cam back in for a one game performance.............LOL

At this point I don't trust Rhules qb evaluation.

Really giving him the benefit of doubt, huh?

I wouldn't trust Rhule to order a fugging happy meal. And the same goes for the coaching staff.

Stuck with an owner indefinitely and his head coach for a while............and a QB situation and O line that is a mess................

and an OC who sucks................

Do we need to continue?

"Sam hasn't played well enough to win, we want to give PJ a shot to see if he turns the ball over more than Sam" 

is more like it...........and reason why it wasn't brought up......

Panthers haven't had a viable backup QB on the roster since Derek Anderson left.  How long ago was that, 5 or 6 years now?  Likely had a big role to play in Rivera's termination.

Rhule would likely be facing charges for dereliction of duty if he were in the military.  Major malpractice if he were in healthcare, but no, Matt is only being paid millions to run a football organization and after almost two seasons, Rhule still hasn't found anyone capable enough to play the most important position on the roster, much less that person's backup.   

This is a huge point as well. Anderson, even with his flaws, could get a win or two, he was good enough for that, which is what he did when Cam was banged up, not good enough to be consistent but good enough to cover for our starter. 

 

Sam and PJ are the same player, except that Sam cost more. Even getting rid of Grier was questionable at this point lol. I'd honestly be calling the Eagles for Minshew.
