Idk if most use Walterfootball.com but he seems pretty turned in and likely has scouts as his sources. He basically says what we all know…Rhule is insisting on full control but clearly over his head and we’d be better off letting Fitt/Morgan run the show. Oh and we’re dysfunctional and Tepper is meddlesome. Get your popcorn ready folks….

Of course Tepper is meddlesome. He was on the phone with Christensen even before Rhule was. There are actually people who think Hurney chose Rhule lol. As frustrated as we have been with Rhule he didn't hire himself or give himself full control. You know damn well the Giants brass were laughing their asses when Rhule took our offer to them. We should have hired a consultant but the same man who wanted Mike Tomlin gone wanted to run the show. Now he's nowhere to be seen.

Yep. Blaming Rhule completely on Hurney was always just passing the buck. You don't give a guy $70M and full control unless you're sold head over heels.

In general I'm sympathetic to coaches who want full control.  Like Bill Parcels said "If they want you to cook the dinner, at least they ought to let you shop for some of the groceries."

But the Panthers are coming off of a 5 win season.  And after CMC got injured, the team completely tanked with a 2-12 finish.  The Panthers had bottom-of-the-barrel stats on numerous measures.  

So, in my mind, Rhule has lost any justification for full control over this team.  The 2021 season showed his personnel choices, contracts given out and player usage were, for the most part, quite poor.

I generally think a coach should get his way.  

But that all assumes you have a decent coach.  If you have an unqualified idiot? Well, you end up giving up your 2022 draft picks for the worst QB in the NFL because your college defensive coordinator told you to.  This only ends one way.  And that became clear a long time ago.

Chances are Rhule didn't agree to coach the Panthers without an agreement/contract that stipulates he has final say.  Tepper wouldn't be able to just snap his fingers and force Rhule to give up his power over personnel decisions.

Tepper is a clown as is a Rhule. We ended up with the worst owner in football and it’s not even close. Until Tepper hires the right coach and stays TF out of the way this team is going to suck. 

So new owners with no real nfl experience still is expected to be a expert about the nfl. So I'm guessing you think you could run a nfl team with no mistakes, and chose the right coach when you'd only been in the league 2 years before hiring the first head coach of your tenure.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Tetairoa McMillan.   The last 28 1st overall picks were either a QB, DE, or OT. Seeing as I don't think we'd take an OT in the 1st and give up on Ickey as an LT yet and there doesn't seem to be a clear overall #1 type of QB or DE pick this year, it very well could be a non conventional #1 overall this year, at least in regards from the last almost 3 decades of drafts. If we didn't have Horn, I'd be more open to Hunter as a CB at #1, but we have him so another CB wouldn't be how I'd use a #1 pick.  And as much as I love Legette, if we have SB contending aspirations, I don't think Legette is a #1 on a team like that, but he damn sure is an elite #2 on a team like that.  He's more of the Smith/Higgins/Waddle to Brown/Chase/Hill (in terms of role/impact, not style of play of course). T-Mac is going to be the top ranked WR on every team's board in the end.  He is going to be a true outside #1 WR who is viewed as a consensus Top 5 WR in the game by his second contract in the same way guys like Jefferson and Chase have done.  His height combined with his speed, athleticism, and hands are near impossible to find all in one player, there is a reason his generally used comp is Mike Evans (although as he's not as thick, I personally see him more as an AJ Green). Yes, as an Arizona alum I've admitted to having bias towards the player to begin with.  But he's also someone very widely being put into the Top 5 in mock drafts lately and most of them have him as the first non QB offensive player being taken, so it's not really THAT much of a homer pick on my part anyways. If a QB or DE truly separate themselves as being a can't miss prospect come draft day, I'm open to that discussion, but until then, or if it doesn't happen, T-Mac is my pick 100 times out of 100.
