Did we win the Head Coaching hire battle? Sure seems like it.

[PanthersNC1984]

Mike McCarthy- Mr free massages for everyone whose Green Bay team actually got significantly better after he left Green Bay.

Joe Judge-.special teams coordinator with zero offensive/defensive experience nor HC experience.

Stefanski- One of the better hires but let’s be real, it’s Cleveland, if he doesnt win a Lombardi in a year or two he will just be joining the loooong line of Ex Browns head coaches anyway.

Rivera- Ahh last but certainly not least. Mr “couldn’t beat a freaking Gary Kubiak team with a geriatric Peyton Manning with a bad neck” Rivera in a season with Cam playing MVP GOAT status and Kuechly in his prime. Good luck with Dwayne Haskins bwahaha.
 

Rhule- Leader of men, literally took not one but two college teams that were a joke and abysmal and turned each of them into world beaters in a couple short years. Has received praise from many respected heads around the league, from Tom Coughlin and even Sean Payton singing his praises.

Obviously I realize only time will tell, hell, for all I know, Joe Judge will be the next Bellicheck and Rhule will be the next Seifert. But on paper so far, it seems we definitely landed the best prospect this year. 

[Mr. Scot]

Ask me again in about three years.

[Rubi]

He hasn’t won a single game fwiw. 
 

 

[Cary Kollins]

Rhule was the top college candidate available. Just like "winning the offseason", it doesn't mean squat at this point but it sure as poo is better than not getting the guy you want.

[Carl Spackler]

How can you tell? We need two or three seasons, not a week.

That just isn't true. 

Baylor had 7 straight winning seasons before Rhule arrived.  Including 4 10+ win seasons during that streak.

Rhule came in and didn't let the scandal completely derail what Baylor had become.  He gets credit for that.

They still lost good players to transfers because of the scandal and lost tons of scholarships with 3 and 4 star recruits decommitting or whatever. He had to work with a 1-11 team with minimal talent and work them back up.

If Matt Rhule turns out to be as good as George Seifert, that will be A-OK with me.

114-62 (.648) Regular season

10-5 (.667) Playoffs

5X Super Bowl Champion coach.

Mike McCarthy,... “significantly better” remains to be seen. The Packers has 14-2 And 15-1 seasons under mike, plenty of back to back and playoff runs. Remember Rodgers was fresh back off injury last year and the 2 seasons prior was a nightmare. 2016 they were in the NFC Championship.

next week when the 49ers annihilate them will you say “significantly improved”?

I personally will have to wait just like everyone here for the next “5 seasons” to see what this looks like.

Will we be the Browns, Houston, Kansas City or the Patriots?

or just the same as the Panthers have been for 25 years,...

You realize most of those Super Bowls came when he was the DC for Bill Walsh right?  The 3 years he was a coach here he was 16 wins and 32 losses.

[Sgt Schultz]

This is about like crowning the Kentucky Derby winner as the horses enter the first turn of the race.

[DaveThePanther2008]

He says all the right things but as most have stated. Performance is the gauge not his hiring. 

He'll have enough talent to be..500 or more next season. We'll see if his philosophy works on NFL players. 

[Jmac]

Don't know....the guy hasn't done anything yet, nor has he had a chance to....he may crap the bed and be gone in three years for all we know.

And two likely future Hall of Famer's as edge rushers with perennially underrated Danny Travethon in the middle. Aqib Talib on the outside and Harris on the otherside.

That defense wrecked everyone they played in the playoffs.
