This game was over when Wilks punted from midfield when we needed half a yard. Find the next offensive coach. We don’t need Rivera 2.0.

Their fans are absolute dipshits and their message board is the softest, least football-knowing fan base who thinks they know everything and their mods edit posts with no warning and they all can suck it so yes I hate them still and they can go to hell.

Good lord what a piece of poo.

I wasn't aware we had a vote on who the Panthers next head coach will be. When did this happen?

Seriously though, we have no say in it so let it play out. My bet is that the list lining up to take the job will not be long and it will be comically underwhelming.

 

I mean, we have no say in anything at all regarding this or any other sports team, so why talk about them at all?

what?

What part of that sentence did you not understand?

It seems Steve Wilks has all the qualities of an at least competent NFL HC. His influence in the way the team has played since Rhule’s firing speaks for itself. That said, speculation is Tepper wants an offensive minded head coach, something the Panthers have never had. I tend to agree this is the right approach, as today’s NFL is geared towards scoring. 
 

My main concern with keeping a defensive head coach is even if he’s highly successful, a carousel at the offensive coordinator job will be inevitable, and the offense will have to undergo major changes as OC’s come and go.

Is this a dumb way to look at it? 

The national media all said Matt Rhule was a great hire soooo

Would a team in the top five trade that pick for two 1sts? Then we could conceivably take Will Anderson plus a QB with our pick. Now that could be interesting. Also gotta wonder if Fitt is thinking, yo I might not even be here in 2024 if I trade our best player…again.

Panthers have reportedly already turned it down sooo

Make the trade for the hope and prayer of landing a player as good as…Brian Burns.

Trust the process 

Are people upset we lost? Lol I love the effort, L equals a W at this point. Onward we tank!

Lemme get that Eagles/Saints pick so we can get Will Anderson. Oh wee mayne

Lots can happen between now the draft. Everyone thinks it’s a two QB race at the top with Stroud slightly ahead, but if the Panthers think the dude from Kentucky is the best don’t be shocked if he’s the one. No one would have suspected Trey Lance would have gone so high at this point in the 2020 college season.

Panthers were picking top two with or without CMC

Contract off the books for an amazing playmaker who missed the last two years due to various injuries. Sucks but better than him getting hurt again while costing a ton.

Likely.  I just think the fake rah rah stuff can wear on some people and their personalities (such as myself), much more than a guy (Urb) who tries to be intimidating but isn't very intimidating himself.  That's where I am coming from.  If I was a staffer around Rhule and Urb, Rhule would bother me a lot more because his type of fake-positive but super insidious style of leadership does what it just did - lasts way too long with more far-reaching implications.  Again, Urb was a dick and extremely hostile, but I think the staff and team knew it wasn't gonna last and they just had to ride it out for a short time.  The poo Rhule had going on had enough bells and whistles that he was able to get his hooks in to enough people that mattered for long enough that he was able to hang around and extend the misery for way longer than he should have.

Not trying to convince you either way just explaining why it would bother me more with Rhule.  But, I'm only referring to the pros...  if you're wanting to include him willingly hire a guy with ongoing domestic abuse issues in college that's a whole nother ballgame, and I would agree, that is easily more toxic and problematic.  I'm strictly referring to the big-time college coach taking over a pro franchise and which style was worse.

yeah I mean Urban verbally abused staff and in one instance physically abused a player, skipped the team flight home after a loss so he could go to bars, lost the locker room and owner and couldn’t even finish one season amazingly. 
 

Rhule is an awful pro coach, but by every account I’ve heard he’s not an awful person like Urb.

The only difference I'm seeing is the physical assault and publicly threatening jobs aspect...  but aside from those, Rhule actually seemed to be more toxic IMO, and the environment he created and fostered was able to fester for a lot longer.  We knew it was bad, but the fact this went on for two and a half years is insane.

I think we have different definitions of toxic.

Why the fug did this not come out sooner? Like the urban meyer crap last year. Also is Tepper really this absent or did he believe this is truly how you coach an NFL team? 

I’m surprised things didn’t leak sooner, but I understand it. Folks don’t want to lose their job and potentially be blackballed in the league. As bad as Rhule’s situation was it wasn’t nearly as toxic as Urbs.

Kind of amazed this stuff never leaked until now.

This motherfuger liked Pepsi? 

I’m positive he used Pepsi because it’s from the Carolinas and he thought he was being incredibly clever. 

If I was getting paid $40 million to be fired, I’d lay low for a while too.

Now we just need a young stud QB…

What Payton means is an owner willing to pay $60 mill to Matt Rhule sounds Fugging amazing to his bank account
