Rhule has been terrible at developing any player, not just Darnold. Most players on this team regressed. I think there may have been a window to fix Darnold with competent coaching, but that window is likely closed. Gase was terrible. Rhule has been worse. McAdoo, who knows what he can do, but I hold no illusions he will be able to correct Darnolds flaws. At this point, he's an 18m paperweight.

Charlotte and surrounding areas has a huge fanbase potential of those who have never really watched soccer, many of whom are Panthers fans. It is perfectly reasonable to expect the same standards from an owner from one franchise to another. Businesses are often associated with the owner and a substandard appearance in one will likely be associated with the same in another. Rhule has embarrassed himself with his comments and his coaching. By keeping Rhule, despite the team collapsing after 3-0 start, and stating the only way for Rhule to keep his job is hire a Rockstar OC, Tepper is telling potential fans he's not really serious about delivering a quality product. And if hes not going to at least attempt to deliver a quality football product, potential fans can expect the same for his MLS team. Same owner, same standards.

As a lifelong Wolverines fan, all I can say is please no. I can't take any more Rhule.

We are on our way all right.

We've got to run the ball more...

Hate the team. No Found a new level of indifference towards them? Yes

Is 50m worth the hate and contempt that's going to be directed at his soccer team? People are not going to invest emotionally into another team run by Tepper when he's running this one into the ground. Canning Rhule at this point makes more business sense than anything else given his 2-12 finish and the way the team performed down the stretch. Fans can't dictate business decisions but fans aren't the only ones who have noticed there is a gigantic lack of NFL HC ability currently.

We could have Slater and still be looking for a LT. Rhule doesn't evaluate offensive line talent well. He's looking for the prototypical LT and while it may exist on paper, it doesn't in the real world. Choosing a LT in this draft should not be left up to Rhule.

I hope to hell you're right and we're getting a new coach in 2023. But I also figured finishing the season 2-12 and getting embarrassed multiple times would be reason to fire Rhule and not give him a chance if he can hire a Rockstar OC. We are the laughing stock of the NFL right now because of how we are handling this coaching poo. I don't have a problem with drafting a LT and keeping BC as a swing tackle. I think it's actually a good idea if we could somehow ditch Erving. Rhule cannot evaluate oline talent. It doesn't matter of the 3 top guys are there for the taking if Rhule decides that some bumpkin out of BFU has all the measurables to be an all pro. Rhule is infatuated with his analytical approach and all its turned out so far is a big steaming pile of poo.

But do you trust them to figure it all out later? Right now we should know if BC can play LT. Rhule refused to put him there until he had no choice and only then did we get a look at him with 3 games to go. Rhule refused to even consider a 2nd team all pro LT at that position in the draft because of his measurables. The problem isn't our need at LT or lack thereof. The biggest problem is the person in charge of making these evaluations and decisions thought that Erving and Elfien were day 1 FAs, Miller and Jordan were the best guards, and that BC and Brown didn't deserve playing time even though the starters were handing out sacks like Halloween candy. The biggest issue isn't the players available, it's the clown driving the car. I want a franchise LT. I DONT want Rhule deciding who that will be.

But then you have to build around him which always seemed to be our problem.

The sad part is they've experienced as much success in the past 5 seasons with no 1st rounders as we have in almost the past 25 years. I'd make that trade any day

You kind of have to though. Baring a trade back, if we take a T at 6, there's no pick until the 4th. BC looked terrible as a guard. It's not his natural position. So now we have a few picks to fill a ton of holes, and not a huge amount of cap space as long as we don't do some restructuring that won't actually accomplish anything long term since we aren't going to be competitive in 2022/23.

This is probably his fastest shot at HC, at least interim.

You think anybody is going to pay good money to watch another clown circus coached by certified clown coach Rhule.

Dear Dave, In your line of work you obviously understand risks, and you took that with Matt Rhule. Sometimes those risks pay off, sometimes they end in catastrophic failure. It's time to move on. To quote a Panther legend. Ice up son. Consider the 50m buyout of Rhules contract a paltry sum to save the fan base that may still buy this anemic product that has been put on the field the past few years. Also, it will be difficult to sell the area on MLS when as an owner you are currently showing that you are not only ok with losing, but are actually embracing failure. That same fan base won't support another one of your miserable endeavors. Signed A Panthers fan from way back.

How much practice do you really need for run up the gut, run up the gut, 30 yard bomb but gonna be a sack, punt.

I'm available for OC. No experience. No NFL resume. Could I really do that much worse?

I live up in the Pacific NW and what they say about Cam would make the Carolinas look like royalty.

Eric Shelton already has a pretty firm grip on that particular catastrophe. That and we've unfortunately had our share of bad decisions in the draft. Still not topping the Sean Gilbert fiasco. This could be just another to add to the stack.

The only OC we're going to get.

Great listen. I'm on OL fan. You can really tell the guys who work on technique vs the guys who rely on mass/athleticism. Good balance, leverage, and technique can overcome power and speed most of the time. That's why I love watching the big guys doing the footwork drills at the combine. You can really tell a lot in those few drills about how well some of these guys are going to do.

At least the Cowboys find new and creative ways to lose in the playoffs time after time.

I think it's fair to say most of us here would love to see the game played the way it used to be, with a NFL caliber HC.
