Lets play a game like the title says.. undo 1 decision that Rhule made in his tenure.. 

Mine would be releasing Teddy Bridgewater after year one.

IMO they had the right plan when they brought him into be a bridge QB. That signing made sense for that reason. 3 year contract sets up perfectly to draft and develop after you bring in more pieces to build a stronger team around the rookie.

But either Rhule got impatient or he was pressured by Tepper, the decision to cut him set off a snowball effect of traded draft picks for bad QB play.

There is not one decision you can reverse that would change anything (besides not being hired).  Every mistake Rhule made was compounded by future mistakes.  He was destined to fail.

 

Edit: I would add that the idea of a bridge QB is stupid and makes no sense.  Especially not for 60 million dollars.  It was a massive overpay of an NFL backup, simple as.

I’m going to be completely original and say interviewing for the job. Aside from that, cutting Cam. Could have saved money, fan goodwill, and developed a guy behind him for a couple years without wasting all those draft picks and money on Bridgewater, Darnold and Baker. 

Should have cut Cam and never signed Teddy.

I think not keeping Cam untill we had another stable QB on the roster, or a rookie that cam could mentor 

Started a cycle of reject QBs that sunk us into oblivion , when Cam did come back Rhule still favored Darnold so it was basically a lost cause , especially not putting a C on him and giving him the team back, he was more or less a highly paid mascot 

I am 100% sure if Rhule was still here, we would be talking to the Jets about Wilson this off-season

      What top 10 prospect do you absolutely NOT want?

      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

      Is running back on the table for the panthers this draft?

      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.
