Rhule: We don't need to make any changes, we just need to battle through it right now.

I will translate whatever he is saying:

 

”please for the love of god mr tepper fire me so I can go enjoy this 70 million you gifted me”

Seriously. It's like he's recognized that he's not cut out for the NFL and is gonna end up back in college anyway so just go ahead and get it over with. He was sniffing around all the top college openings last year thinking he was as good as fired.

Can't make this up.  Just said this in his presser.

Also, when asked about the pressure the Giants got he said he didn't think anyone just got flat-out beat, they were just bringing "extra guys."

😂😂😂

Why didn't this stuff work with my parents growing up? 

"No, I didn't disrupt the class and get kicked out.  I just interrupted the teacher.  My behavior isn't quite there, but I'm really close.  You just can't see it."

He doesnt want to quit because he will have to give back the money.

Yeah but he wouldn’t get paid by both 

That is the way it usually works in the NFL.  I don't know about Rhule's contract, since Tepper was busy trying to outsmart the rest of the NFL with him.

Most NFL coaching contracts are structured like personal service contracts.  So, he can be fired as the coach, but he continues to be paid but he can't go elsewhere for the term of the contract. 

He can't just sit on his arse for four more seasons and collect the rest of the money.  It is almost like collecting unemployment, where he is required to try and secure another coaching position.  But, if he goes elsewhere, there has to be a buyout (offset) to the former team.

Rhule makes roughly $8.5M a year with his contract with the Panthers.  So, if Northeastern Southwest Mississippi Institute of Technology State A&M pays him $3M a year, he'll get that and $5.5M from Panthers.

Here is a link that talks about coaching contracts in general.  Again, whether Tepper ran with terms normally in NFL coaches' contracts or tried to outsmart everybody, well, who knows?

Exactly. That's the only reason he's still here. Probably the reason Tepper hasn't fired him. They're in a standoff to see who gives in first. I don't think it's gonna be Rhule. He's not walking away from tens of millions.

      Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair.

      it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
