How JR was forced to sell and Snyder is still hanging on strong baffles me.

Until proven otherwise, yes. Inaction on this dumpster fire is inexcusable.

This might be the best screen name currently posting on the Huddle. Laugh

I made it through Pickles. I made it through JR being a creep. I made it through unceremoniously cutting Cam. But I don't know if I'll make it through this. This feels truly helpless.

Investment? Holding onto those PSLs at this point is like those folks still stuck holding onto GameStop stock.

Look at me! I'm "rebuilding"!

He had the best defense in football.

Most interested in hearing about Willis, Zappe, and Strong. See how they handle the step up in competition level and look with a stronger supporting cast. I've already formed my opinion on Howell, Ridder, and Pickett.

This. If we had a good offense I think they'd look a lot better but this is a D kind of like the Manning era Colts. It's built to get after the QB and play with a lead. It's exposed when our offense sucks and can't score so the opposing offense can just run the ball down our throats not feeling pressured to put up lots of points.

If they hire O'Brien that's gonna be hilarious. The guy who was last seen in the NFL creating the Texans' dumpster fire.

I just wonder which was due to editing? The first one or the "edit". I used to do a decent amount of freelance writing. Depending on the outlet, it's not surprising when you see "your" article posted and it's not a damn thing you actually wrote.

I fully expect Jason Garrett. He's still a "name". He's a former NFL HC. Rhule initially said he wanted one on his staff before bringing in the whole college crew. Rhule will sell Tepper on this as part of his "process" and Tepper will throw enough Money at Garrett to make him say "ah fug it, I'll cash another check before picking up the fishing rod and golf clubs".

I'm there as of a couple of weeks ago. Haven't watched the last two games. Don't plan on watching anymore Rhule coached Panthers games. If Howell find a nice landing spot I'm probably out for good. If he doesn't, then maybe I'll be inclined to tune in when the Panthers push the reset button again. I'm just not interested in watching Rhule and company shoot for another quick fix afterthought vet QB that no one else wanted which is exactly what's going to happen.

David Newton is a fuging embarrassment but he's the ESPN beat writer we deserve.

I'm not. I'm worried about trading significant assets and sinking significant cap space into yet another third or fourth tier vet QB because that's all we can get. The only way Watson ends up here is if he sees that no one else is willing to touch him. Zero chance of Wilson. Zero point zero.

That's a typo. It has to be. *Oh god, I just saw this "also seems to back Rhule" line.

Any QB with any ability to chart his own course steers clear. The only way we lure a FA is to grossly overpay. The only way we land a guy in a trade is if he knows he's going to be released if he isn't traded and that he can't get near his current deal on the FA market (enter Jimmy G). These guys need to be scouting the fug out of rookie QBs. That's their only shot. God help the poor kid they'd draft though.

They really think they're just the right QB away, from Tepper down. Tepper said the NFL is reliant on a GC, GM, and QB. He thinks he has two of those three boxes checked so the desperate swings for a QB will continue.

Sure we can. We aren't gonna spend any money in the OL. I doubt it'll be Mitch unless we pay him way too much. Seems like he's taking a smart approach to his career. He took an obvious backup job in a good organization to try to get right. I think he's going to be very careful picking his next shot. He knows it'll likely be his last opportunity to prove himself as a starter. The right situation wasn't there last year. This sure as hell ain't it.

Seriously, if this happens Tepper will have taken a mediocre NFL franchise that enjoyed occasional brushes with greatness and made it a total doormat and laughing stock. Maybe I'll tune back in for the next reset. Maybe not.

The writing is on the wall. There's literally no one predicting Rhule will be fired. Plenty saying he deserves to be, but none saying he WILL be.
