Yep. 

Tepper's gotta man up and realize signing Rhule was a colossal mistake. He did the same for Cam's farewell tour. 

 

Gotta move on. Rhule is not NFL material. Tepper waited way too long to cut from Rivera. Don’t make that mistake again. 

I'm almost speechless. We talked about this at the game Sunday. I said no way in hell Cam would even take the call, let alone sign. Goes to show what I know.

Sam Darnold is absolutely terrible and this offense needs a leader. It’s obvious Darnold is a failure and will not improve. Maybe Brady is also a problem. But at least having Cam will make this a more interesting season to watch than watching a Jets reject ruin our season. 

There is not a chance in hell Cam Newton would sign with the Carolina Panthers.

Remember how y'all said I was crazy for even considering that Matt Rhule could be on the hot seat before the end of this year? That if he didn't post a better than .500 season things would get dicey for him.

Well, the locals are calling for blood. The team seems to have lost its identity due to a couple of key injuries (we talk about CMC a lot, but we REALLY missed Shaq Thompson out there on Sunday). 

Big, long contract people said. Tepper will give him time people said. It's amazing how many people who said those things are now just fuming.

poo takes time folks, and some things aren't nearly as bad as people think. Heck, my mind has changed and I can see some thing headed in the right direction. I can also see some things going way wrong right now, too.

There's a lot of games left to play this season. It's going to be a bumpy ride, but we're going to come across some teams that have already packed it in, we're going to come across some teams that are more injured than we are. It ain't over yet.

It might get better. It might get worse. But I think Rhule needs to start coaching like his career depended on it. 

The booing yesterday in the stadium was rough. I agree with it. There seems to be a frantic concern emanating from the sideline. Rhule running in a 12th man against Dallas, the timeout before the half against the Eagles that cost us a first down via penalty, and Sam's two consecutive timeouts yesterday. Tepper seems to be pretty calm; I thought he waited way too long to pull the string on Rivera and Hurney. Afterall, I'm pretty sure he didn't become a billionaire by being hyperbolic. 

This is the worst coached game in Panthers history. The 54 yard field goal. Not dropping the red flag when you’re about to call a timeout to discuss going for it on 4th down. And then our head coach literally sent a 12th man on the field to effectively allow Dallas to milk the game away.

What the fug was 26 doing on that last clip. If he got his head out of his bum and turned around to block the interception return may have gone a whole lot further. Even if he had just gotten out of the way a bit. Totally wtf moment there.

Donte probably got called out in the film room Tuesday for that.

He wasn't going to make the team. Why keep him around and risk him doing it again?

Occam's razor. 

I suspect this is a second or third offense of some sort.

worst case?...lose to the jets in week 1 for starters

Yea, that's looming large for me. 

I apologize for posting something not on-topic, but I can't create posts, I can only respond.  Anyone know why that is?

With the possibility of the Panthers wearing alternate helments, should they go ahead change the uniforms as well?

 

 

 

I would like to see a new uniform. We’ve pretty much had the same/similar looking uniform from our inception.

 

I've heard pretty consistently that the uniforms will get an overhaul for the 2022 season.

You got to follow this up, is that a real panther prototype or just one of the 700 High school panther helmets?? 

That's legit the first prototype of what the Panthers logo was going to look like in the infant stages of putting the expansion franchise proposal together for the NFL. 

Told you I did. You must unlearn what you have learned. 

I was literally talking to my buddy about this today. What if the Panthers went with the original concept design as a throwback before we re-design the unis and will have legit throwbacks.

Big Rosinski guy, but whats his age? I know these talking gigs are old age friendly, just dont know where his health is either. Honestly I thought the first time Trepper heard Mixon do a game, he would have fired him before the half time show. I think the search needs to be just like the HC and GM, wide net. I also prefer for the next guy to have some honest talking room, I hate some fluffer telling me how awesome they are playing down 40 with 20 minutes left. 

He's 66 or 67.

Would love to see Bill Bozinski back. I loved his enthusiasm for the Panthers.

Make it happen, Tepper.

This. Bill still lives in Charlotte. Make the call Panthers org. 

Back the Brinks truck up to Gus Johnson's front door and let's be done with this.

Honestly only the huddle and Panthers fans still hold this burning ire for Rivera. Kuechly doesn't strike me as the type to stay on an extended vacation and that attachment to the sport doesn't just fade for guys like him. If he does take on a role with another franchise like wft I could only consider it a loss for the Panthers in the short term as they seek to establish a winning culture again with one of the youngest rosters in the league.

No Ron Rivera is the one who acted like a child dumping all his Panthers gear on his front yard before he moved away from Charlotte. 

Did Rivera require Luke not wear anything with a Panthers logo on it. I mean Ron did dump all his Panthers gear on his front lawn before he left Charlotte and called it a yard sale.  What punk. I don't miss his ass one bit.

I'm more of a Rosinski fan, but Mick was a hometown guy that was very likable. Not sure why there is so much hate for him.

Makes no sense. His first season calling games wasn’t great, but he’s been good since. Not great, but good. Rosinski is forever the voice of the Panthers. Would love him back. 

Anyone think Rosinski would take the gig back? I would love to hear the gang back together, Bill, Eugene, and Jim. He never left Charlotte - resides here to this day.

To add to this, the Pats may not seem to fit that bill from the outside looking in, but Belichick is pushing 70. Even if they may not seem to have a "win now" window, Belichick does and he calls all the shots.

Belichick loves these scenarios like Randy Moss. 

I can't stand Ron Rivera. So glad he's gone. And so glad he acted like a child and got rid of every single item he had with a Panthers logo on it. SMDH
