We are not even half way through the season and Rhule is trying to limit the number of times Sam throws to whatever is reasonably possible. The is because Sam is terrible, and Rhule places an extreme value on not having picks thrown. Like Teddy would throw a rare pick, and I think he would catch hell for it. Imagine how Rhule feels about interception machine Darnold.  We dumped Teddy for throwing just a few picks over the season (among other reasons), so imagine what will happen to Sam. I think Rhule is going to try and strangle Sam to death as soon as the season is over, let alone cut him from the team. That's a given.

I think Rhule should strangle himself to death first because he failed to upgrade the O-Line before going after a QB.

His days as our starter--anybody's starter, are numbered. He's destined to be our backup.

backup on our team?

Nah.  He's destined to be a backup on another team if he does not turn it around soon.

 

 

BTW, check out this pathetic loser who should never be allowed to don Panthers/Huddle colors again :

Probably around Week 10-11, that’s my prediction. Then we’ll lose out with PJ. But you better believe there will still be the PJ Hive saying he’s the future. 

 

pj will make some moves, the offense rallys around him, panthers will win a few, im gong with 3-4. this is all unlikely because i don't see rhule benching darnold regardless of what darnold does. bridgewater should have been benched after the vikings game last year, but he wasn't.

Rhule is going to live or die with Sam at QB....no guarantee he won't be bald by the end of the season after pulling all his hair out, though....

Depends how bad it gets. 

If we end up winning only 5-6 games and he has a worse season than he did in 2019 with the Jets? 

 

Well, good luck to Tepper selling that.  It will mark the first time in franchise history with 4 consecutive losing season.  With a promise of NY Sam coming back?  

think for Sam to return, things will have to turn around from the current outlook.  If we continue poorly….the football gods will require sacrifices. That’s the NFL.   And Joe Brady won’t be enough. 
 

 

I believe you to be right 

followed this team, in person, for a very long time and the only time I can recall so many PSL owners selling were thE 

1.  Siefert Chris Wienke era and of course

 2. Fox Clausen era

many are just not buying the product on sale by Tepper 

  They aren’t buying Rhule and his assistants and Sam Darnold and they know when all that is marketed is a running back, well that doesn’t put butts in the seats 

they aren’t blind to 3, soon to be 4, losing seasons under Tepper 

when Darnold threw that opening interception, you could hear the deflation  then the boos rained down on darnold’s head very quickly on the two time out debacles 

they are tired of other team’s throwaways at QB

watching ineptitude year after year gets very tiring particularly when one is paying for it  in person.   watch on tv, you can turn it off  watch in person and you’ve wasted a day to day and a half plus money 

ill say this too, the stadium atmosphere is missing a great deal  it used to have a bit of class about it.  No more  it’s hard to explain but looking at those expensive on field seats put in for soccer at the cost of football PSL owners that also used to be full of kids looking for footballs, it’s just not special anymore in anyway and seeing the football team store being 33% soccer, 66% CMC and 1% everyone else also tells a story 

personally, Sam Darnold is like Charlie Brown, so pitiably inept that you want him to do well as no one can be that bad   It’s a shame really   All the physical talent in the world

Curious as to how many here believe he will and how many here think he won't.

I think he might but it's also too early to tell.  

If he plays like sh-t against the Giants next Sunday, though.....

(I also am attempting to create my first poll here so hopefully I did it right but if not, f*ck it)

If he is gone, what is option B?

A bigger mistake was not drafting Justin Fields. We would not have been good this year, but we would have a rookie getting some experience and our 2nd rd pick next year. Instead we gave up both of those for the guy who was the worst QB in the league for the past three years. 

I think Darnold hasn't bottomed out either, its gonna get worse. He will get replaced by PJ at some point.

Its early, but Fields has looked pretty bad so far

The two timeouts thing was something I never saw before even when he was with the Jets.  

Then again, isn't it the Coach's job to notice when a player isn't in his proper position on the field and then call a timeout?

Maybe Sam was trying to do Rhule's job for him or something?

Anyway, that first INT did take the air out of the place....but don't forget it inflated back up after the "D" came up with a huge strip-sack-fumble to get the ball back which led to the Chuba TD.

So the Crowd was back at that point. 

And then the drops began..... sigh... 😐

BTW, that fumble by DJ really REALLY hurt and it ultimately (in hindsight) turned out to be a costly one as it gave the Vikings back-to-back TDs basically.

If he’s here it should be as a backup only.  This rebuild, as people are calling it, is being done ass backwards. QB and O-line should have been addressed first, before signing and drafting 100 defensive players. We are putting together a roster for a version of the NFL that hasn’t been around for at least 20 years.

I haven’t been to as many games as you. On average I go to one home game a year. I was at the game Sunday and I’ve never heard our crowd boo the team as loudly as they did when the two timeouts were called.

 I would've focused 1000% on the O-Line *FIRST* before even thinking of QB.

How loud was the crowd when Sam led the team on that 96-yard TD Drive and 2pt conversion?   

I think Sam redeemed himself from that ridiculous double-timeout garbage at that point in the crowd's eyes.

    • Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers. 
    • Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production. 
    • I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
