Jones is playing the game obviously. 

 

Although it would alleviate matters immensely if Rhule (and the staff) deem jones as a competent NFL starter and we can trade back for him if Lance isnt there.  Reading the tea leaves from this week it seems there may be mutual interest  

Yeah, that is where I am.  Maybe he is plan C, and we will learn a lot over the next 6-8 weeks,

Dude clearly has never played any real sports and has no idea what football is. Just trying not to get hurt before the draft? WTF did they accept the invitation? Beyond awful article and if this is the typical reader, I know to never waste my time reading another article from this poo site:

performative masculinity is killing this country and this guy is just a league average asshole who thinks hes special. 

I saw that post & laughed. Then I saw the hundred+ up votes & was like wtf, smh & laughed some more.

Great way to coach if you're at the HS level however I don't feel that is the best method for an NFL HC, and I hate to agree with the comments but what has Rhule really done thus far? What has he won? So far, he's got a 5-11 record and Teddy Bridgewater as his hand picked starting Qb. Yuck.

There were not a lot of options, I suppose. But Rhule's honeymoon is now over.  I think he will win in 2021, but he must fill 7 or 8 holes with quality players.   I am not as convinced that Brady is this genius everyone thinks he is; I am more impressed with Snow and what he did with what he had.

Sure, however I think they are pretty fair points. Rhule deserves his fair share of criticism for the Teddy Bridgewater/QB debacle.

I am thinking that Rhule did not know Brady as well as he needed to know him, basing a lot on his national championship and Burrow's evolution, but he trusted Brady to select personnel and he missed.  Yes, it falls on the head coach, but remember where we were with Cam, the pandemic, etc. and Bridgewater was pretty good (when surrounded by a good OL) in New Orleans. 

You do not hear comments now about QBs coming from Brady (of course, he is Covid-19 absent), but you do hear Rhule making them.  He is letting it known that he is shopping for a QB.

About Bridgewater, I find Rhule's use of the word "urgency" to be interesting.  Does he mean late in games?  Does he mean TB's career?   I think he means "urgency" across the board---get the team out of the huddle, learn the 2 minute offense, know when to throw it down field in game situations and when to hit the check down.  Know how to win the game in the fourth quarter--there is a different approach to the QB position when urgency is needed.  TB stayed the same.

He's a demanding Head Coach.

He'll quickly weed out who's a professional here to improve as a football player and win games and who's just interested in the pay cheque. 

If he wins the players will love it. If he loses he'll be fired - it is what it is.

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

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      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.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      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.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
