Thursday after practice:

Reporters: Are the starters playing Saturday?

Rhule: You know, there's still a chance, obviously, we have to see, our OL depth is nursing, I mean our starting 5 could very well be nursing, and I want those guys fresh, 

Reporters: Lamar's starting....is Sam?

Rhule: I mean, Horn's going get some reps, so yeah, you definitely going see some starters come Saturday.

Just cut Denzel Perryman already, what a waste of a signing. Dude couldn’t stay healthy on the Chargers either 

You don't want to give up on the guy early but this is what people were trying to tell some fans who had him penciled in as the next all pro Panthers linebacker. Carolina took risks on multiple oft injured players for key roles and so far it's going as expected. Somehow the team didn't see it though.

Just say Sam is getting some snaps. Who is he trying to fool? It’s the fugging preseason. Honestly that doesn’t speak well for Rhule. He needs to go boot camp with RBA.

Rhule is going to mimic the Ravens.

Came here to say this. 
 

Rhule is essentially playing follow the leader during these joint practices, for better or worse.

I don’t necessarily a bad thing. Him and Reich agreed to go all out with the 1s in practice and play the 2s and 3s in the game. They might do something similar this week.

Taking input from another coach is not a weakness, taking feedback and being open to suggestions is a strength.

Yep, following the lead of 11 win playoff teams that have different priorities.

We are rebuilding back to back 5 win team.  Not a returning playoff team.   

Reich set the practices up and ran them how he wanted.  For his team.  Teams like the Colts are resting their starters.  Rhule admitted he had no input on how the practices would be set up.   He almost bragged about not having any of input.  Was weird.

yeah that's a good way to install YOUR CULTURE, correct??? .

but on another note...

He talked about seeing Will throw more. That's a good sign...but also telling about how much less Sam is actually being discuss getting reps in-game situations...shouldn't the QB who just got the playbook, get more. I mean, what haven't they not seen from Will at this point? he was here all last season.

I get why some of you are in love with Fields - you're still not over Cam Newton and wanted Cam Newton .5. That's weird, but understandable.

I don't understand why people seem to hate Rhule. He won 5 games last year (and made us a tough out in the rest) with, and I cannot emphasise this enough, a terrible roster. He's brought in back-to-back stellar Draft classes too.

He gets criticised for being an inexperienced College coach. He gets criticised for following the lead of an experienced NFL HC that won 11 games last year and took his team to the Playoffs. He literally can't win.

how did you come up with that from what i wrote....

I'm really not hating on Rhule, just curious to his logic of thinking right now, and there's no mention of Cam or Fields....

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.

      Where do you fall on the Bryce Young spectrum?

      there is a 100 mile long list of NFL players and coaches going to bat and defending horrible play from teammates.
