Fan base reactions to Rhule


crowntownpanther

Recommended Posts

I’m worried about what I’ve seen from our fan base reactions for the most part so far.  It’s clear this is meant to be a long term move based on the contract (even though Tepper could still send him packing early), but it doesn’t seem like the fan base is ready to give him a shot to rebuild.  They want win now.  I’m very optimistic, but I always am.  I’m excited to see us move In a different direction, and while I can always hope for immediate results I know it will most likely take some time.

After two losing seasons already the idea of a rebuild and more losing seasons is hardly exciting. Tepper may be looking at a long term plan but 2020 is year 3 for me under his ownership. So no I am not looking forward to more years of losing. Especially when I have season tickets and have to spend thousands of dollars to see a losing product or lose my PSLs ( which might not be a terrible idea right about now.)

Half of this fan base never even heard his name before we interviewed him.  The same people have never read anything on him.  Half of this fan base have never watched a single half of Baylor football.

 

 

Half of this fan base wouldve been mad with McDaniels 

 

 

Half of this Fan Base would've been mad with the Chiefs OC

 

Half of the fan base would've been mad with the Vikings OC while half of the Vikings fan base wanted us to take him from them

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

75% of this fan base had Kyle Allen as the QB of the future week 6

I said it years ago if we took Hurney back we were looking at our super bowl window closing with the Allstars we had. My prophecy has come true.

Because  he had won 4 games in a row? We were cautiously optimistic to ready to give him a $200m deal. The media fed it too.   That got me curious....

The defense crumbled and Allen showed that he cannot put the team on his back and bring them from behind.  To be honest, Cam struggled a bit from behind too. He is 68-53-1 as a starting QB (56%).  He has 15 fourth quarter come-from-behind wins and 17 game-winning drives. Is that good?

To Compare, in 36 fewer games (over 2 full seasons), Andrew Luck (53-33, 62%) had 16 4th quarter, comeback wins and 20 game winning drives. 

  •  19% of Luck's wins were 4th quarter comeback wins. 
  • 12% of Cam's wins were 4th quarter comebacks.
  • 23% of Indy's wins when Luck Started were the result of game winning drives.
  • 14% of Cam's wins were the result of game-winning drives.

That is a bit of a difference.  Lotta variables, but I thought it was interesting.

Not saying im right either

But when everyone who knows the game and NFL, writes about it etc.

And they all are glowing about something.  Im not going to go around claiming to know more or better than the people who know more than me and get paid to do it.

Lol and that right there is why I don’t listen to anyone who overreacts in the huddle!

 Who in the hell wanted to give Kyle Allen a $200 million dollar contract hahaha especially after four games?

    • Now now now, I wouldn't say there is no logic, but there's just not a lot of in-depth thought put into Barnwell's  "analysis." Now to be fair to him (and other national writers), pre-season team rankings are basically clickbait. And...Barnwell, himself, said that "there's a lot of projection here." He basically admits that he doesn't know how the hell things are going to turn out with our receiver group. He also said that "I find myself" more intrigued by Coker than Legette; that does not mean that he said that fans should be, or that Coker will even be better than Legette (regardless of ESPN's per-route-run stat). So, yeah, Barnwell said some things, but even he has to basically admit that he doesn't know how bad or good that our playmakers will be in 2025.  Overall, what Barnwell is basically thinking is that the Panthers have gotten worse at the offensive skill positions, and baked into that is that others have gotten better. That's the argument in July (meaning, please don't give this any more weight than it's due). I would personally be surprised (not shocked) if we end up worse than the Titans, Pats and Giants at least. Once you throw in the Bills, Giants, Jets, Steelers, and even the Chargers, I personally think there are several teams' skill groups that may end up ranked lower than ours by the end of 2025.  @kungfoodudeis one of my dudes, but like others he is over the tipping point. He's had enough. Seeing is believing. I will say this though: Barnwell's piece is less about logic than just good ol' opinion. And to be honest, he might as well be a Huddler throwing out sh¡t in the summer based upon nothing but good feels or bad feels.  Our offense as a whole (just like any other team's) is going to depend upon the play of the O-line and especially the QB. How you can even rank the skill positions without expressly baking those two things in the cake is beyond me. I would dare say that that's not even logical. 
    • Football is not the professional sport where timidness and apprehension are justly rewarded. 
    • Bryce Young had a super high floor definitely at least won't be a bust safe pick we allegedly had seen in some time.......and went on to have one of the worst rookie seasons of all time.  They are all lotto picks.  And that is especially true for whatever they will be day 1 in the NFL.  I don't think Tmac is a sure thing year 1.  It's not like we watched him do his thing in the SEC.  He was a PAC12 guy.  I'm sure it will take time
