Sound's to me like the writer of this article is a pussy. 

Love what I read in the article from Rhule. Holding players accountable, no plays off, staying focused. I like it

I mean...if this doesn't scream "my pee wee coach didn't treat me well" idk what does

Writer seems to think Rhule should’ve handed out juice boxes and cookies instead.  Sure they learn nothing about taking the game to the next level but hey, it’s a glorified scrimmage plus he wouldn’t have hurt anyone’s feelings. Such horrible traits on display from someone who gets paid millions of dollars to motivate people to win. 
 

Guy should go write for Emily Post or something. It’s a billion dollar industry and you have to prove it or look at another career.  Realizing that before getting cut could be a career saver for some of these young men.

This is why he died in the Revenant.

From the article...

Quote

Rhule unintentionally presents a meatheaded synthesis of how football worships through-the-whistle, no-plays-off toughness, and he’s doing it at the Senior Bowl. Sure, more obscure prospects can make their name at the event, but they’re mainly trying not to get hurt before the draft. It’s a barely coherent speech that hinges on him being loud. He seems a bit unsure about whether he wants a more convincing performance of coachability, or simply more discipline.

So I guess he yelled at some kids and might have hurt their feelings and stuff.

SOMEBODY STOP HIM!

Keep in mind you are referencing a guy whose lack of career aspirations have him writing for The Defector. What would he know about being motivated to be better in his career?

ALL OF OUR BULLSHIT,
NONE OF THEIRS
This is Defector, a new sports blog and media company. We made this place together, we own it together, we run it together. Without access, without favor, without discretion, and without interference.

@Mr. Scot

This is their mission statement. So....basically just a bunch of us here that started a website.

Fitting.

    • I liked him when he was at Michigan because I'm a Wolverine homer. After that... 
    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.
