If we start out run heavy and lose our first few games Tepper will say I've had enough and fire Rhule. Our new coach will change to a pass first offense and we will start winning . We will have a new sheriff in town .

Trade Sam for a 4th , we pay 10m of his contract, a coke and a happy meal . We net Baker for 15m and get our conditional 4th back . Win win

Fits has done a masterful job . If he can make a trade thats is equal or better than the Baker deal it is a wash at the QB cost . If not we just sit Darnald at the backup spot and let him walk next year .

Now let Fits made a deal to trade Sam . We can eat some of his contract like the Browns and get back a conditional pick. Roll with Baker , Matt, and PJ .

We have a lot of WRs on the team that could pan out . If Marshall is ready , Robbie could be traded . He says no about Baker so make a deal . Darnald and Robbie for Baker and a future pick . What say you

Question ? Is Cam a better option than Darnald . I think the answer is yes . Cam does not see ghosts . All we need is someone to manage the game . Cam can mentor Corral until he is ready to start . Cam can rally the team and with a better O-line we have a chance to win . I know Cam is not the same player he used to be , but he is a veteran and knows what it takes to compete . It would bring back the fans and give us a little more hope.

Bring back Cam for a full training camp and let the chips fall where they may. At worst you have a great locker room QB and mentor for Corral

They need to go like the NFL and select by their records . We haven't had the Number one pick since Larry Johnson . Other teams have had top 5 picks several times . It just seems to be rigged . Everything needs to be out in the open .

If Matt is (Golden Corall ) then Ickey is ( IHOP )

Before you say GB needs to go , you need a plan on who is his replacement . Good coaches stay where they are . Bad coaches are fired so pick your poison .

Tepper is a Pickett fan . Hard to go against the boss .

losing out on the Watson trade is a blessing . It would have cost way too much . We could not afford to lose any of our best young players much less several draft picks . We now can focus on the draft and getting the O-line help we need . Maybe with a better line our QB (if Darnald) can have enough time to make a good play . If not , we can draft a QB next year .

Amen brother !

Gardner Minshew was traded to the Eagles last year and is under contract for year 2022 . Robby Anderson is showing interest in being traded . Robby has one year left on his contact also . Would you try to make a trade with the Eagles for Minshew . He is an upgrade QB over Darnald and the cost for the trade would not break the bank . This trade allows the Panthers upgrade our O-line with our draft and if MInshew doesn't work we can draft a QB in2023 .

Build the O-line in the draft ! Trade down if possible . If a QB falls to a lower 10-15 pick then take a shot keeping the extra picks to build the O-line . If we don't pick up QB in the draft just wait for a QB to be cut from another team (maybe Carson Wentz) . We keep our draft picks and give Darnald competition . At worst we have a good backup QB . Cut Walker .

It won't matter much with a new coaching staff if Rhule is in charge of the draft and FA pickups . He went all defense the first year and did not address the 0-line problems . He then went on two FA quarter backs spending our future draft picks . If he goes QB again with the first pick our O-line will still look like a mess next season .

If I am Rhule (abandon ship)

Rhule leaving for Michigan is a good way out for Tepper to not admit a hiring mistake . Allow Fitts to take control to find a new head coach and any other positions that follow Rhule . Tepper will save a butt load of money not paying Rhule the rest of his contract . Rhule will take the first college job knowing his job is under fire with the Panthers Rhule was a Hurney hire which was another mistake .

Mcadoo and Fitts made this hire happen . He had to connection to Rhule . We now need a D-line coach . Let Campen evaluate our O-line and let him tell Fitts what we need to improve .

It took several years before Michael Jordan found the right GM and coach to get the Hornets looking like a team that can make the playoffs . They are young and fun to watch . Tepper is new to being an owner but he is not dumb . He sees what we are seeing . Give him a little time and things will work out .

You have to dance with the one you brought . (for better or worse )

No Lower than #12 . Trade with Washington and get rnd 1 #11 plus #42 rnd 2
