Florio: Panthers understand they have to give up 3 firsts, another pick, and 1-2 (Chinn, Burns, Brown, Horn)

I want Rhule gone and I think this team won't have a chance until he is  gone, but I don't want it done because some player won't come here unless he gets his HC of choice. I know it would probably be Brian Flores who would be an incredible upgrade, but I would rather just Tepper bite the bullet on his own and make it happen rather than using Watson as an excuse. 

If he's not convinced enough about Rhule to even let it be a non-starter in negotiations with Watson, then Rhule should have been gone already.

Yep, the insanity behind keeping Rhule is evident again with this whole fiasco.

This is a huge red flag.  Tepper is really trending in the wrong direction fast.

Tepper reeks of desperation and has put the Panthers in a horrible position where they have no leverage.

Sure, Jerry Richardson ran a Mom and Pop organization for two decades.

But, that's still far better than David Tepper's Amateur Hour that we've been witnessing for the last 3 years.

On one hand its been refreshing to see an owner put his foot down and not tolerate stagnation. But it is alarming that he seems to meddle too much. I feel like he risks stalling necessary growth and road bumps to chase instant success.

It's OK to put your foot down. But so far Tepper has been stomping on turds.

Tepper probably told him to play out this year, serve whatever suspension he will get and Rhule is gone.

They will pick a coach together next offseason.

That is the only logical reason why Rhule is still employed.

Yep. Having a player-GM sounds like a really, really dumb decision.

How are you supposed to coach a player who you know got you the job and could also get you tired tomorrow? You'd basically have an NBA team in the NFL.

The Cleveland Browns have been aggressive about Watson and are “incredibly interested,” and are regarded as a “wild-card entry” into his trade market

The Browns are among up to 10 teams that have been actively monitoring the situation, Wilson reported, adding Cleveland has done a lot of work on Watson lately and is regarded as “a wild-card entry” into his trade market.

The Browns have Baker Mayfield installed as their starting quarterback, but Watson is obviously better.

Tepper is wasting his wealth in all the wrong areas.

Tepper has made poor decisions from the outset.  Had he hired a successful NFL executive 3 years ago, (rather than putting all his trust in Hurney) this unfortunate turn of events could have easily been avoided.  Instead, Tepper foolishly puts all the team's decision making authority in the hands of Matt Rhule, an NFL novice.

The rest is history.

I honestly don't see a way back to relevance for the Panthers if Tepper doesn't radically change his ways. 

Mortgaging the team's future for one player isn't the answer. 

The NFL isn't the PGA.

This is the Vikings Herschel Walker trade disaster all over again.

This could be the system working 1000% that we just can't see, yet.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      What I really learned here is that the Carolina Panthers aren't anywhere near as bad as I initially thought they were earlier this year.  We've got a young and growing offense with some promising parts. But it still needs some tweaks and improvements.  We really still could still use a dominant #1 WR. But Chubba,  Legette, Coker,  and J.Sanders have generally looked decent. Bryce took a big leap after the benching. We can score enough points to keep pace with 2x defending super bowl champions, so offense isn't a huge issue. Main thing that needs improvement is defense. We sorely need a CB 2, and a number of new players at Dline and LB.  We're not quite as bad at edge with Wonnum showing promise.  But we definitely need 1 or 2 more edges Clowney is old.  Run D is probably worse prevailing theme these past couple years. We really need a good young stud or two to pair with Derrick Brown and another LB to pair up with Trevin Wallace. If Morgan and Canales can focus on rebuilding the defense this off-season and possibly going out and getting a #1 WR. This team could easily be somewhere around 7-10 to 10-7 and flirting with playoffs in 1 or 2 seasons. Overall this game has made me feel alot more positive about the direction of the team.

      Team is looking good for next season

      By PadresPanthersFan · Posted

      With our picks we need pass rush, lb, Safety, a speedster yac wr, o line depth and I still want a mid round qb. We got 9 picks and 8 in the first 5 rounds. If they pull Off another solid draft we be cooking.

      Bryce Young - Good and Bad, what say you?

      By frankw · Posted

      We had one passing touchdown against the Giants and one passing touchdown against the Chiefs today. Yes a good backup can replicate that. And that is why Andy Dalton in significantly less games has the same number of 30 point outings as Bryce Young. I am on board with you guys about wanting to be hopeful for the future. Today was a good performance to build on especially at home. But let's please keep things in perspective. BTW the Bucs who honestly aren't even that good blew the doors off the Giants today after we went to overtime against them with 17 points. Again. Perspective.
