Just gotta give it about 5 more years! It's the Jay-Z Process!

With Brady possibly retiring, Sean Payton out, and Atlanta having a lot of work to be done.... Who knows what the NFC South will look like next year, and years to come. The funny thing is when Rhule took over, we knew all along that Carolina was in prime position to take over soon with 3 aging QB's in the division. Now 2 years later the team is possibly FURTHER behind than it started. lol smh

This thread is very immature, and ridiculous. I can't believe this is how low of a level this forum has reached. .....but also yes probably.

Oh man; look how slim he is. Crazy how much they just fatten these guys up during their careers. Kudos to Mike, I remember he and Ken Lucas were some exciting signings back then.

This post lost me at trade CMC for a 1st. He has played all of 10 games out of a possible 33 in 2 seasons. He's an injury prone RB that's getting older, and has a huge contract. I believe we get a mid-round 3rd at best, probably a package for a 4th, a positional need, and conditional 2nd would be what I consider realistic.

I'm all for it. Hope a mod pins this and it gains traction. (not much else to talk about at this point lol)

Hey angry fella, try to relax.

I respect this answer, I've been a fan of the league (as we all have) for quite some time. A lot of people in the thread are speaking it as if it's absolutely unheard of for players to voice they're upset with coaching or play calling. I don't mean to give off the impression that the players normally scream 'off with his head ' at the presser, but normally you'll hear a few sly comments that allude to the players disdain. Also...this isn't a defense of Rhule at all (which I can tell some are trying to turn it into), just an observation about an abnormally quiet locker room. Did we have a single player only team meeting, heated disagreement, etc. as we've had in the past during down years? (granted I may have missed it, I was a bit more disengaged than usual years lol)

Yeah, I definitely recognize the obvious about players wanting to stay professional, needing to get paid etc. But in the worst run franchises you'll usually get at least a peep about the coaching, or even see it funneling down to the players criticizing each other. I didn't get much of that. I definitely see Rhule has a lot of work to do to even be decent. I'm just a bit surprised to see these guys behaving so calmly. Especially the vets that have dealt with this for 2 years.

I realized; for everyone to hate Rhule as much as they do, and for him to show low competence... I've noticed players have been surprisingly quiet and taking on the blame, besides R. Anderson at most. Is there a possibility that the players actually DO respect him? Why hasn't there been more uproar as there has been in past seasons when things have gotten bad. I barely heard a peep smh. I'm genuinely confused at this point, he must be a great car salesman as everyone calls him.

Now I'm sure Tepper wants to make sure that Rhule starts to put his butt to the fire, and he may just be mulling over things, But I feel like if Tepper were THAT confident in Rhule he'd just say this himself. It's not like he ever acted like a shy guy when it comes to getting in front of the camera.

Haha, and we traded high picks for that guy.

Happy New Year!!!

Not just yet; I'd give him one more year before labeling him a certified bust. But yes, he's on that trajectory. I'm also not sure whether he's being coached to the greatest extent.

I won't say that it's new or surprising not to blame his coach. But to listen and watch his pressers he has clearly learned a few things in regards to keeping his composure. He's not just giving short bs answers to get out of there, he's actually elaborating on the situation at hand. It's impressive and smart especially as he prepares to likely be back on he market.

Oh yes, without question.

https://twitter.com/Callihan_/status/1475226378018693123?s=20 Tried embedding; but Cam has definitely undergone some maturation when addressing the media. He's been saying all of the right things, even when he deserves to say more. (Not that he's been playing at a high level himself.)

That was great of him! *waits to see how people flip this thread lol*

I was just thinking "Tepper seems like the type of guy that would get easily swayed by the media due to his ego."

LMFAO I do hope no one takes that as a true endorsement of Darnold from me. I'm just saying of the 3, I think Darnold makes the most sense to play and evaluate, outside of the sentimental value of Cam. I'm a Cam supporter, have his jersey, went crazy upon his return. But we literally aren't even getting completions past 15 yards right now. Outside of Cam's rushing ability, he just doesn't seem to have the arm left.

No one will like this.... I think you put him back out there. Cam won't be the future of this franchise for years to come which I hate to say. We also literally don't Darnold is still young, and you've invested important draft capital. You need to know for sure what you've got in him before the off-season. PJ is PJ.

Just my opinion, that would be idiotic. There are 3 games left, and if I saw correctly they're mathematically eliminated from the playoffs. Zane has been one of the few bright spots this year. Instead of having him risk further injury, why not bring in a young guy or even a guy that you might want as camp fodder next year? At least for this week, unless he's 100% healed.

Haha , some people also hold sentimental value with players too. But as far as 'who'd win us the most games'...Prime Cam. By far and easily.

See now THAT is the kind of answer I was also wondering about. It's easy to say Luke, Cam etc. but I'm sure there are some other guys that would've had amazing potential if they'd stayed healthy.
