Since the merger in 1970, there have been 400 teams start the NFL season with a record of 0-2, according to Stathead. Of those 400, only 38 have reached the playoffs. That's 9.5 percent of 0-2 teams. It has been a while since teams that started the year 0-2 made it to the postseason.

If that is the actual line in the sand then Matt Rhule agent is dialed into the college openings and he will take one of those before Tepper gets around to it 

And that school will owe David Tepper a lot of money to buy out Rhule’s contract. In a way, it’s a win for everyone involved including the fans

NFL contracts aren’t the same as college ones though.  It would be interesting to know the details of Rhule’s.  Buyout clauses I don’t think are as standard in the pros.  For example, Petrino didn’t have one when he quit the Falcons to go back to college.  

Most NFL ones generally have an offset clause.  So if he landed some sweet Nebraska gig after being fired and was going to make the same money in college….Panthers don’t owe him if they fire him.

    • They gave him franchise QB money. Sorry but if you don't earn it you can be embarrassed.   He's rich he can take it. Stop feeling sorry for people who can't live up to their contract. This isn't a sport to be soft. Daniels deserves to give back some of that money he stole if you ask me.
    • And it was coming off of a bye week. Perhaps he should vacation a bit in Germany in the off season, something certainly seemed to help him there.  No, really... He showed maturation and the possibility that he's turning a corner. That wasn't the NY Giants out there, but the back to back Super Bowl champions with the #3 defense in the league, with them coming off of a prime time loss. And that was a 9-1 team we just played literally down to the last second. Bryce played so well that maybe, maybe he wins over some nay-sayers. It's still early, though, but what a nice breath of fresh air that was. You can win quite a few games if that is your normal performance. It is obvious that we are still on the learning curve, though. But that was one helluva test he just took. Some of these QBs coming out of college just don't have a lot of games under their belts, especially in top end programs. They are perhaps just a year to two years behind center in games that matter before they move up. It can take them some time to hit their stride. We can still be cautious about our future and still celebrate a great game by the kid, though, and we should. He earned the laurels today, or had before they were snatched away at the last second.
