I guess it was blind faith that Matt (he doesn’t deserve the dignity of being addressed by his last name) would work out but I guess the bottom line is that the Panthers as an organization have been incompetent since their inception.

The best coach in franchise history has a winning percentage a hair over .500 and if it weren’t for lucking into Cam Newton then we’d be Jacksonville Jaguars of NFC (if we already aren’t).

The organization rarely gets anything right on the first attempt, I don’t know why we expected this situation to be any different.

Because he’s not getting fired.  Not 1 shred of evidence is leaning towards Rhule being fired.  The process should have already initiated.

You just had the team mouthpiece state how embarrassed Tepper is. He has lost the team. The fan base will not react well to him being here next year. I don’t see how anyone can justify him being in charge for another year.

Honestly, I’m warming up to the fact that he is going to be here next year. We’re clearly not going to win many games next year regardless and we don’t have enough cap space or draft capital to fix anything this off-season, so we may as well have him leading the charge and taking the fall for the poo show he’s created. I honestly hope he bails mid year like Petrino did just to show the rest of the league and its fans what type of guy he is. 
 

it sucks that we will have to sit through another crappy year of football, but at least we know the new head coach will be walking into a top five pick, in a better qb class draft. 
 

With all that said, Tepper needs to strip him of roster control at seasons end to make certain he doesn’t mortgage our future. 

The new head coach will not be walking into a top 5 pick next season. Rhule will trade away our 2023 picks to try and save his ass for 2022. We need to get rid of him now and hit re-start on the rebuild. Draft o-line this year and trade or sign a QB in 2023. Right now guys like Watson and Stafford don’t want to come here because our coaches, scheme and line suck. With the current roster plus a real coach and better line we’ll be .500 next season and might make the playoffs. We can then attract a better QB in 2023 to become a legitimate contender.

I always use Dabo as the example.   A legit great college coach.  But he is a recruiter, culture guy, and motivator.  And his formula wouldn't work on NFL players.   At all.  Would be silly to attempt it.  I don't think it is so much about seeing through what Dabo does.  But a 18 year old kid and 28 year old family man see everything different in life.  Because life is drastically different for the two. 

In pros you basically just need a respected locker room guy ...who is a great in the moment game manager that excels at gameplanning week to week (X and Os).   

Pro players want coaches who put them in the positions to make plays and win games.  To do that a coach has to be good at X's and O's -> gameplans, in-game adjustments, in-season adjustments, accurate player talent evaluations.   

If a coach can surround an NFL player with talented other players, draw up great game plans, identify specific situational tendencies of the opponent and make the necessary adjustments, that's going to help the player win.  And also make big plays (the sack, the INT) which helps his future contracts.   That's what NFL players respect.

All the other stuff is just window dressing.

And the Panthers players have seen enough of Rhule to know he's bad at basically all of these things.  The guy might be a good rah-rah college coach like Swinney but he's a fraud at the NFL level.  And that's why Rhule has lost the locker room.  Everybody knows he's incompetent at the NFL game.

I couldn't be happier that I unloaded our PSLs years ago. I've also become a lot more accepting and less emotionally attached since making a conscious decision to give up my fandom for any one team. It's far better to be just a fan of the game and enjoy watching the sport for what it is instead of allowing a team to impact your life on an emotional level.

Now, I watch whatever football game may look to be interesting, otherwise I have other things to do. It's such a better life, a healthier life.

The franchise is broken. Fixing a broken franchise is not easy because the owner is making money hand over fist regardless of the team's success or failure. Only when an owner truly wants the team to succeed is there an opportunity to fix it.

 

This was me before we drafted Peppers. I had casual interest in the Panthers as the local team but there was never anything to make me take the leap into full fledged fandom until we drafted Peppers out of UNC. Prior to that I was just a general NFL fan with favorite players more so than favorite teams and I'd basically just tune into the best game on at the time.

Y'all, it gets even worse the more you read.

Part of me can somewhat understand the current defensive issues. They built a defense designed to rush the QB and create turnovers because they were supposed to have an offense that moved up and down the field at will, effectively eliminating the running game for opponents simply by running the score up. The other part of me can't understand why the coaches thought that it would actually work.

Holy poo this is bad. The brand has to be adhered to, or it doesn't have to be, but it's the best way? What in the fug? This supposed to be one of Rhule's trusted managers, and he's like "Yea... you can do it or you don't have to, but it's better to do it." I... I can't right now.

Get rid of him. Any team that is not a meritocracy is not a team that I want. Stop putting these comfortable pieces in place and start putting competitive ones in instead.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Icege · Posted

      One has a proven, offensive-minded, Super Bowl winning head coach along with a top 5 OL + defense. He's being protected and getting the ball back not having to chase the other teams. The other had Frank Reich + Thomas Brown their rookie year with a bottom 5 defense as well as a bottom 5 OL that gave up the 2nd most sacks against a rookie QB ever. The sophomore season is being ran with a top 5 OL but also with a rookie HC (that has just one year of OC experience) and a bottom 5 defense still. The Broncos defense has allowed over 20pts just three times this season (26 vs. SEA (L), 23 vs. LAC (L), 41 vs. BAL (L)). Meanwhile, the Panthers have had ONE game where the defense gave up less than 20pts (vs. NYG (W)).   I'm not sure how folks couldn't expect Bo Nix to statistically perform better given their incredibly different situations. With that said, I didn't expect Nix to keep ascending as impressively as he has this season. Hopefully his arc will give other older college QBs a better shot, especially given the recent media blitz against the NFL regarding how development of the QB position in the league seems to be non-existent. Hopefully Bryce continues to improve as well, of course.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By 7CLOWNS · Posted

      “You can learn a lot in 10 games,” Nix said. “[I’m] still learning, still growing, but just finding ways to execute the play that’s called, no matter what it is: run play, pass play. It doesn’t matter. Just finding the right way to go with the ball.” To that point, Nix noted how his developing partnership with head coach Sean Payton has helped Denver’s offense get to the next level. “To be honest, I think at the beginning, you kind of make the NFL bigger than what it actually is,” Nix said when asked where he feels he’s made the most strides. “These players are really good, but at the same time, you have really good players on your level. I think simplifying the game, trying to play as fast as possible, and finding a completion, which is what we’ve been able to do here recently. “I think as we’ve gone on, Coach and I have found a good rhythm of what we both like, what we can kind of put out there on the field, and what we can execute. Then the guys have kind of adapted to it, found our roles within the offense, and executed at a high level. It’s just all about slowing the game down and processing things in a manner that you can handle. Just kind of see one or two things, and let those guys take you to where the ball is supposed to be.” -Bo Nix From what I'm gathering regarding Bryce, the Panthers entered this season with a reset mindset. It's Young's rookie year, which explains the benching. Now, we're beginning to see the development of Canales and Young's offense. Slow development but we're winning 😃
