10 points is the best we can do. We are that bad. I’m shocked we looked as good as we did for a quarter but you knew we wouldn’t play well after that. We are a SOFT TEAM on both sides.

“Rhule can say toughness in his mind, but they’re not oozing toughness on the field,” the scout said. “They’re soft. They’re a really soft football team. I don’t see the defense stopping anybody where it’s a 14-13 score. That’s tough football.” -This scout was right about our defense. Don’t get me wrong, I know our offense is the worst in the league, but this defense is soft regardless of our ranking and the thing Rhule tries to hang his hat on is such an improvement in defensive performance…..but they wear down after the half every game.

He's trying to show improvement over the next two games to save his ass so he won’t be truncating a rookie any time soon. Same reason our 2nd round pick is never playing.

Why wouldn’t you even consider letting him get in game experience even on an extremely limited basis if you are red shirting him this year? We are out of playoff contention and literally have garbage players starting who will not be with the team next year.

A few eye opening quotes from the Joe Person article in The Athletic this morning for you miserable fugs to enjoy: -But the three-month collapse after a 3-0 start has tested everyone’s patience, with one Panthers source characterizing the team’s regression in Rhule’s second season as “a clusterfug.” -Many of the 20-plus players, staffers, team and league sources interviewed for this story believe the same attributes that made Rhule a successful college coach are undermining his efforts in the NFL. They say Rhule — like a lot of ex-college coaches used to controlling every facet of the program — has the tendency to micromanage “everything that touches football,” as one source put it. -“The defense is starting to wear down,” said a longtime NFC personnel executive. “They don’t have a lot of size on defense, which is starting to show late in the year.” The Panthers have allowed 30.4 points during their current five-game losing streak. Only the Steelers (31.0 ppg) and the Chargers (30.5) have allowed more points since Week 10. -Another veteran scout said it’s tough to say what the Panthers’ identity is, but it’s not toughness. “(Rhule) can say toughness in his mind, but they’re not oozing toughness on the field,” the scout said. “They’re soft. They’re a really soft football team. I don’t see the defense stopping anybody where it’s a 14-13 score. That’s tough football.” -There’s also the feeling among league sources that Rhule keeps too many of his former college players, which can affect his credibility in the locker room. An agent who represents multiple Panthers’ players called Carolina “less meritocratic” than any team he deals with, adding the Panthers have Temple and Baylor players who wouldn’t make a roster anywhere else in the league. -Sources also say Rhule sometimes gets concerned with seemingly trivial matters, pointing to one week when Rhule was upset when a player signed an autograph before a game.

I bet he told his wife something similar when he was liking Halle Berry’s pics on Instagram. “With the money Tepper is paying me, I could pull women like this….but I choose to be with you”

What would your reaction be if we beat the Saints
WarPanthers89 replied to WarPanthers89's topic in Carolina Panthers
Lol with an extra game played this year. -
Call is a season a let’s just forfeit the remaining games.
-
I never root against us winning, but I have a feeling the Huddle will explode this year if we beat the Saints in a meaningless game. I hate the culture build vs draft pick debate….but this year it seems more than ever that we all want the highest pick possible. How will you feel if we beat the Saints in a battle of the suck bowl?
-
Showing up to play…..and of course the DBO sign.

What draft picks do we have left?
WarPanthers89 replied to ThPantherFan's topic in Carolina Panthers
If it resulted in us using our 2 1st round picks on a QB and a LT I would do it in a heartbeat. There isn’t really anyone on the team I wouldn’t trade to help us get a QB and a better O line. -
We had an all defense draft…. I say trade down, pick up as many additional draft picks as possible, and draft all O line at this point. Give us some hope for the love of god.
-
I’ll take a trade down and use our 1st and 2nd round picks on linemen. Guard and Center are massive needs and we could continue to develop BC at LT with Erving as backup next year.
