Matt Rhule press conference


Captain Morgan

Recommended Posts

Rhule won't commit to Bridgewater as the 2021 starting QB, but also says he won't commit to anybody at any position as a 2021 starter because he believes in competition so much.
 
 
 
Rhule: "Teddy has to have a tremendous offseason." Says he didn't think Bridgewater was the same after getting banged up Nov. 15th in game against Tampa.
 
Matt Rhule: "It's probably been one of the hardest years of my life. And you know what, we competed right to the end."
 
 
Rhule also says he thinks it's "vitally important" they have a full offseason.
 
 
Matt Rhule says they'd like to coach in the Senior Bowl, but may be out of their hands. Bengals and Eagles have worse records and are maintaining their coaching staffs. Bengals coached in it last year.

Matt Rhule says that he thinks as they look towards the draft, they'll have to move to getting younger offensively.
 
 
Matt Rhule said Teddy Bridgewater played well early in the season...But the last month of the season, Teddy hasn't played his best football. "I personally feel like ever since he got hurt, in the first half of the Tampa Bay game, Teddy hasn't played his best football."
 
Matt Rhule says he felt like the Panthers really missed out absence of OTA's and a regular offseason.
 
Matt Rhule: “Ever since he got hurt in the second half of the Tampa Bay game, Teddy hasn’t played his best football. … My encouragement to him has been, ‘Hey, you’ve got to have a great offseason.’”
 
 
 
"The key in the NFL is making decisions that are unpopular." -- Matt Rhule (and of course Belichick probably trademarked this one)

The quotes don’t do it justice. He really didn’t sound high on Teddy as the QB of the future and said a QB has to be able to stay healthy throughout the season and take on the west and tear to be able to play the best football that they have in December 

Ah okay. Yeah from the quotes it sounded like he was making the same old excuses for Ted.

I like that the HC is not afraid to call him out. Now that might change if Teddy was a guy that he drafted as that typically means their fates are tied together.

... which is why I think its reasonable why we will NOT draft a QB this year. As soon as you draft a 1st round QB your on the clock and need to win. With a 7 year coaching contract, its better for him to build the rest of the team THEN get a QB as the final piece.

    • Ideally Bryce and the other starters should get at least a full quarter and an argument could be made for 2 full quarters given how they've played early in the season the last few years.
    • A rookie that has never played a snap and a proven 1000K NFL WR are not going to be viewed the same in these type rankings.  And calling draft picks, lotto picks, isn't some new quip I just invented.  take the big 3 Hubbard, AT, insert whatever 3rd Panther you want vs Kamara, Hill, Olave.  Most football folks outside of Carolina are picking the Saints there IMO.    
    • You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
