Fair but at least from that angle that was a pretty clean hit. He was in front he didn’t go high. That was common place football. If we are gonna throw a towel in on that. I don’t have much hope for any toughness coming out of this team. 
 

I mean frankly the only tough guy we have on defense currently is Chinn. Past that turf toe and turf hand may be good but they ain’t tough. 

 

Although there may be some players who seem to play a little soft. It wouldn't even be close to being right. That football players ain't tough.

 

The vast majority of these guys are Alpha, I'll show you, Males. They play a physical game. A game where you are run all over if you aren't physical enough. They give no quarter, and they ask for none. For 3 hours every Sun., they grunt and groan, push and shove, tug and pull against other Alpha Males. All for our entertainment. 

 

You want tough, try getting out of bed after a long season.

 

And that is why the average career is still less than 4 years.

I really like Rhule but this and having players run laps for mistakes is very College football. 

I don't know how long that flies with NFL millionaires. 

 

Don't want to run, you may need to cut out the mental mistakes. We are trying to instill a culture where mistakes are not tolerated. We drafted/brought in smart football players. This reminds them to be smart.

 

Rhule is not going to stand for unnecessary penalties during the football game. This instills that behavior.

Not the direction I was coming from on that but still very valid.

Very true.

Could have been that the players were specifically warned about this before the pads ever got put on and he went right and played outside the instructions given.  Rhule would have certainly been correct to have made an example of that

As fans, we know very little of this situation. After all is said and done. We just have to hope Rhule knows what he is doing.

 

Ibe won't be the last sacrificial lamb I tell ya what.

It wins a lot of Super Bowls. 

 Bill never coached college.

Maybe not, but if the offender had been Horn we probably wouldn't have had the same outcome.

Agreed. We have WAY more invested in Horn and would try to coach him into keeping a level head. An undrafted rookie better be on his best behavior…

    • Not sure if they are happy but realize they can’t upgrade everything this year and are content with the group
    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
