Cutting cam and trotting out bridgewater and the worst starting qb is where a lot of the over the top hate comes from. It’s not just that but that we signed one to a big contract and traded a high pick and a 5th year option pick up for the other.

we suck this year, we’re missing a 2nd and a 3rd for the upcoming draft and Darnold is getting paid 18 million for next year. And the qb class has been deemed not good by many on here for a front half 1st round pick. We don’t have picks in the 2nd or 3rd for olineman. It just feels more hopeless than after Rivera’s first two seasons.  Next year feels like it’ll be the same situation. And we haven’t had a winning season in a bunch of years. All  of that adds to the hate and frustration.

Rivera was a well regarded/proven player/NFL DC prior to becoming the Panthers HC.  

Rhule is a coach who took over a couple of failed mid-tier college programs.  He made both competitive prior to jumping ship after three seasons.  Matt  then demanded total control at the pro level.

Rivera's resume was much more robust IMHO.  Even so, JR was ready to fire him if not for Hurney taking the fall instead.

I don't think it is as bad as you are making it out to be. Head coaches of other franchises have had it much worse look at the Lions or Browns. As for Rivera some people hated that man with a passion and we aren't even close to that with Rhule. Ease up on the hyperbole.

I'm not sure it's as much about football or the situation as it is with people generally being more angry online and wanting a pat on the back for supporting the mob.

 

It's the same as it's ever been. When you're on a losing streak and getting blown out regularly all there is to talk about is negativity. Folks like you acting like this just started recently are either trolling or just confused.

      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.
