Legit surprised.

I assumed that Rhule was just going to promote his ST coach from Baylor that's the assistant now to full-time ST coach.

I've got a feeling he was directed to hire from outside.

They still let him decide who to hire, but he can't just promote or rehire his buddies.

That's a theory, of course. The OL and DL hires will be interesting.

It’s almost like a clear cut change has been made.  Whether that is Rhule or an owner demand….Carolina looks to be going from college guys to a pro guys. 

I’d like to see some more shakeup too.  Given how Matt Rhule has explained how they do things….I’d still like some of these guys under the coordinators gone.   For example, the OC doesn’t work up the full game plan.  The staff under him, Rhule’s buddies are tasked with different eras to gameplan each week.  Think some of that needs to shake up too.

The initial gameplan seemed fine for the most part. It was the lack of good adjustments after the other team adapted that seemed to derail things IMO. Offense was ranked 7th in points for the 1st Quarter while the Defense was ranked 2nd. I'm hoping the added experience improves the other 3 quarters.

EDIT: Oh and excited for the ST hire.

It’s a decent hire.   Better than McAdoo.  
 

if Rhule gets fired in season….we have options.  Fields and the Bears looked pretty dang good vs SF in the game he was the acting HC lol

Was thinking that when I heard he was interviewing. That whole team looked different/played harder the week Nagy was out haha.

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
