When did you give up on Matt Rhule?

When he picked up Sam's 5ht year option.

You don't need to be Nostradamus to know that was never going to be a good idea.

betting on him turning it around and having him under contract for another season, vs. letting him dangle and demand a huge contract extension

if you're bringing him in you obviously think he's going to rebound

that was just a logical move

I don't know how expecting Sam to be something he hasn't shown he can be is a logical move.

Honestly I was almost done after the first year. I could see the bad at the end of last year but I hoped it would be corrected after a full offseason. It wasn’t. In fact the team seems to be getting worse under him. 
But after this game I am done. We need an NFL experienced head coach or Rhule needs to hire some coaches that aren’t a bunch of college coaches.

then you don't bring him in 

sam was always the third choice. if you're in for a penny you're in for a pound. the panthers believed they could build an offense for him to thrive in, one that leaned on CMC that he could execute. And that after he did that he would command more money. and for a second there it looked like it was going to work out, but of course now everything has fallen apart. 

just because of what's happened in the interim doesn't change what the situation was when the move happened

He kept running fake punts last year, going for it on 4th down at the wrong times and just generally making stupid decisions. The team was no good last season but I think they lost 2 or 3 games as a direct result of terrible coaching. I remember asking myself "what in hell is he doing?" multiple times.

I don't know if you pay attention to fit your narrative but Fields blows. If we took him it would actually set us back further because we would give him a 3 year leash, so at least we wasted a 2nd round pick instead of a first

yea you probably right lol

still, slater though. i would have been fine with rolling with PJ for a year tbh.

Did the Cards do that with Josh Rosen?

    • Dude... you're just all over the place. You're the one who said T-Mac is better right now than Chark was at his best.
    • When I say "average NFL WR", for me, that's comparing him to all WRs in the league during that season/span of time.  He was of course better than those #4-6 WR's that can't even get on the field, but talent/ability wise, he probably wasn't any better than a #3 WR for most NFL teams, he just happened to be on one of the teams in 2019 with even worse WR's so he put up solid stats for the season. Here's more or less how I'm looking at it. Take T-Mac right now and Chark at his best, put them on every NFL team at this very moment, and where would they fall on the depth chart come Week 1 (basically, the teams that don't put the rookies at #1 to "make them earn it in camp" don't count, it's projecting week 1 depth charts). T-Mac would be at worst the #2 WR on the majority of teams this season, (hell, he's likely our #1 at this very moment right now already), peak Chark would not.  Yes, T-Mac still has to prove himself at this level, but his current ability, even as a rookie who hasn't played a snap yet, would have him above Chark on any team's week 1 depth chart. Because again, you can't just fall back on "well Chark had a 1,000 yard season" and use that as the reason for having him above T-Mac.  As he didn't have that 1k yards because he was a beast, it was because he was the only halfway decent receiving option on a bad team that was always losing and passing the ball (the Jags had the 7th worst scoring differential that season).
    • We clearly need to add a veteran stopgap at safety one way or the other.
