Kirk Cousins is horrible

Yea, seems like they would give some incentive for a team to hire a minority HC. (Besides avoiding be bashed in the media for not)

 

But geez...there are people who just want to tear others down, they complain about everything.  Tepper took a hit (unfairly) for not hiring Wilks.  He pointed out what a diverse admin staff he already has.  So, they (primarily Reich) went out and found the best coaches they could.  There happen to be minorities in the mix...so now they want to criticize him for hiring minorities?  It is a stupid comment.  Makes no sense.

I didn't want Wilks as our head coach, and I'm black. Tepper did take an unfair hit on that decision. If he had won against Tampa Bay and won the division, he would be our coach right now. I believe the game that cost him the job was the Tampa Bay game. That was Tom Brady's best game of the season, and he is supposed to be a defensive coach. It is also possible that Wilks was offered the job, but he didn't want to get rid of Al Holcomb, who, in my opinion, doesn't need to be a coordinator of anything.

You play to win the game. I'm glad we didn't tank.

I've seen some dumb threads over the years, but this one might be the dumbest.

Unfortunately, there has been some threads dumber than this....this one is still dumb though.

If he is the head coach, Al Holcomb needs to hit the road.

He ran more than Chubb last week.  Maybe he's tired.

I hope so!  I believe we can still win if Barkley gets over 100 but we have to get off the field on 3rd downs. That's the main problem I have with this defense. It should not be so fuging easy to convert 3rd and longs on us. It should be hard to convert those anyway and we give those up with ease.

John Boy and Billy from WRFX morning show? No I didn’t click the link to listen because I already know the content based on your posting history. Just figured I’d clutter up your thread, as you do to others.

I will admit when Rhule is right. Kid is a monster G that can swing to the outside. 

What? Say it ain't so? This is rare and not typical of blasting Rhule.

Baker played like poo in the first half but in fairness he also doesn't play defense and that side of the ball was also lacking.

A sensible post from you....I didn't think you were capable. I hate to say but I agree with you.

Similar. 
 

In my 20’s I was so angry when it came to sports. Took everything personally. A loss would sometimes linger all week. 
 

I guess my agenda here is the hope that people on here will realize they don’t have a say/control what the team does. 

If you can’t find something to like about the Panthers, then you are fuging yourself over and wasting your time. Doesn’t mean you can’t get disappointed or upset. Just don’t be consumed by it.

I see a lot pain in here. Life is too short to give that much of a sh!t. 
 

Just my opinion though. 

The amount of animosity and the vitriol I have seen towards Rhule is crazy. The Rhule criticisms are valid but some of them are just too extreme.

This isn’t a Rhule thread.

 

What we do has no impact on Sundays. If we could choose the coach/players that would be different, but this team is going to do what it does, and then we respond to that. 
 

What makes your choice of response better than the alternative? 

Unfortunately, every thread eventually turns into a Rhule thread.

we decided to go with speed instead of power and it shows. 

good plan for college ball.

next week barkley is going to go off. if you've got him on your fantasy teams, enjoy it. could be a career day.

 

Yeah, we are not stopping Barkley.

It's the scheme and the players.

CMC got 14 touches yesterday and people complained that he didn't get enough. CMC in the past was getting majority of the touches and people still complain.

That should have been a come back win for the Panthers despite all the mistakes we made in the first half. I just think Baker was too hyped in the first half. He started to mellow out as the game went out. Those tipped balls killed our drives. People were open. That fuging holding called on Ian Thomas killed a drive too. We just couldn't stop the run. If we could just stop them from running the ball we win that game easily.

The same coaching staff that people are talking poo about is the same coaching staff that coached this team to score 17 points in the 4th quarter. Even through all the poo that happened in the 1st 3 quarters, we had the lead and those two calls definitely played a part in that. People are dismissing those two calls because of their pure hatred for Rhule. 

I am not defending Rhule by no means. I killed him for calling the timeout at the end of the half when the Browns was going for it when they had no timeouts. I would have let them went for it and took my chances.

I blame this stupid ass defensive scheme that we got. We don't have players to stop the run. Every last one of them are undersized. There was a few times defenders did get in the backfield but they couldn't tackle. I'm pretty sure we are going to see the same thing with the Giants next week.

Yeah, I know what the huddle hive-mind thinks, but has anyone actually seen or reported Bozeman looking significantly better in preseason this year?

Can't look any worse than Eflein. Eflein is god awful.

I only recall hearing Bozeman being mentioned specifically one time during preseason coverage and it wasn't great. Did I miss something or is the "Bozeman is the second coming of Ryan Kalil" just huddle lore? 

Anybody but Eflein at center please

It wasn't a bad decision? What was the line from Rhule when the move was made. That he wasn't a "fit"? He got a speeding ticket big whoop. Shi Smith got arrested and he turned it around. It fits a pattern of overall impatience with this regime which ironically enough that same impatience has cost us significantly in both draft capital and salary cap space with various decisions. At the end of the day people who want to excuse it will do so and if that's the case here that's your prerogative.

This is what you said in this thread(https://www.carolinahuddle.com/topic/171345-panthers-are-trading-lb-denzel-perryman-to-the-las-vegas-raiders/?&page=9#comments) on Page 9 about the trade:

I will say it is refreshing this new regime is not afraid to move on quickly in situations like this. On the flip side though I hope this is a learning experience bc there were red flags from the beginning the Chargers let him walk for a reason.

As you look through that entire 18 page thread, everyone was ecstatic including the people that are very critical of Rhule. Your previous comments made it seem like we should have never traded him at all because he made the pro-bowl.

We basically flipped Perryman for Cade Mays (the 199th OVR pick we got from the Raiders).  Very much TBD whether that was a good or bad decision.  Personally, I'd rather have a promising rookie OL prospect on a cheap contract for the next 4 years, but if you'd prefer an oft-injured 29 year old LB who, best case scenario, would've resulted in one or two more wins for our team and simply hurt our draft position during an uncompetitive rebuilding year...then like that's your prerogative bro.

He agreed with the decision last year with us trading Perryman.

I'm here for it. She knew exactly what she was getting into when she married him, I'm sure. You can't be Tom Brady and TB12, ext without being an absolutely obsessed individual.

I hope he continues to choose football for as long as he wishes. For his body of work, it's only fair he and only he decides when he's done.

I completely agree.

Mostly everyone applauded moving on from Teddy Bridgewater yet we went on to replace him with a far worse QB for even more investment. People have given the decision makers the benefit of the doubt in the past but they have been spotty at best. Any skepticism now has been well earned that's just reality.

The decision to move on has been great, the replacements not so much. What I was getting at was that you brought up the fact that we traded Perryman to the Raiders like it was a bad decision. At the time it wasn't.

He is offering an opinion not based around being a kiss ass all the time. Yes the staff can and will make some mistakes. Like when we signed an LB then traded him while we went on to become thin at the position and he went on to become a pro bowler.

And mostly everyone applauded that move because he was injured the majority of the off-season.

The entire " exclusive rights" arrangement has changed. No more CBS with AFC and Fox with NFC per say. Someone explained it here on the board very well last season.

https://awfulannouncing.com/cbs/while-details-remain-sparse-the-nfls-tv-packages-on-cbs-and-fox-will-seemingly-look-much-different-in-2023.html

I believe what you say but that article states that is supposed to happen next year.

I wonder why the 49ers @ Panthers games is on CBS instead of Fox. NFC Teams usually play on Fox.

This thread is dildos.
