Bringing in Teddy was a mistake. Everyone already knew he was a game managing QB who could never win a SB. We should have either let Cam play his final season here, or even better had Grier start all season. That would have put us into position to draft Lawrence, Wilson, or Fields, and we wouldn't be in QB limbo. This isn't hindsight 20/20 because we knew this is what was needed to to be done at the time.

Later we're granted the good fortune of having a top 3 pick despite our foolish move of bringing in Teddy. What does Rhule do? Everything he can to beat the WFT and ensure we lose our chances of taking a top 2 or 3 QB. That win makes me question Rhule's overall intelligence and leadership ability.

Now we're in a bad position at QB, and we desperately offer way too much for an aging middle of the pack QB who has never accomplished anything. Well our GM completely fails in getting this soon to be 33 year old QB. Yikes. And makes an offer that is crazy stupid over the top and STILL fails to get the QB. Good QBs with options don't want to come here, and you can bet we won't get Watson either.

We're in a bad position in the draft because of Rhule. If Rhule had benched Teddy for the WFT game we'd be in a great draft position, but he screwed up. Plain and simple. Now we have to take a long shot at QB, like Lance or Jones, and we're in danger of making a busted pick. Or we're stuck with Rhule's blunder of Teddy for another season, and you can bet Rhule will win just enough games again to keep up from drafting a top QB. We're in real danger of multiple seasons of 8-8ish records and QB limbo. This is why we need an innovate free thinking coaching staff and GM who are focused on draft position when the season is clearly lost. We don't have a savy deal maker who can go out and snag a top QB in free agency. We don't have a coach who cares about draft position, and thinks Teddy is acceptable for a 3 year contract for big money.

Things are not looking good for the Panthers with the current coaching, and the record reflect that. Expect 8-8ish at best with Teddy back at QB thanks to Rhule.

I must have missed that. They had a guy decline to cover a guy in a drill??? Seriously?

Yeah, was talked about here a while back. Came from someone who was at the Senior Bowl practices.

Might be in one of the draft forum threads. Don't know.

We didn't lose that game because of Rhule. We lost that game because of Ron. No coach in his right mind would have kept playing Haskins after halftime or likely have let him suit up to start with after what he had done earlier in the week.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
