Rhule has Tepper by the short hairs...

He signed this guy to a seven year deal for high $$$$. I know Tepper has the bucks, but having to buy this guy out to get rid of him will cost big money... plus a shot to his ego. I'm sure Tepper isn't used to losing in business.

To lose with a lousy team and then to have to pay out the ass to can the guy you raved about that put the team together.....is real kick in the nutz. Hope he learns something from this fiasco.

 

But probably not....

It’s still early but the seat is warm.

Ron’s seat was in fire after EJ Manuel led Bills team won with the walkoff TD then Riverboat was born. 

But Riverboat was rudderless without an athletic monster like Cam Newton. He had a damn good defensive coordinator who has ended up making an even better head coach too.

And? They still were losing games they shouldn’t at that point in year 3 and figured out a way to turn it around.

They had some bad losses but the offense then to now is night and day at least Cam could get you some big plays. Sam is somehow worse with his decision making when he has time. It's clear our offensive players do not believe in Darnold. Rhule and Fitterer made this mess. At least Ron had the balls to draft Cam despite talking heads saying he wasn't even the best qb in the draft. Rhule chose to put all his chips in on Darnold and baby him. Barf.

He really doesn't. Rhule signed a 7 year, $60M contract. After this season, $17M of that is already sunk so there's "only" $43M left? You really think Tepper is gonna let $43M stand in his way of parting with the guy torpedoing his $2.2B investment in the Panthers? If Tepper becomes convinced that Rhule is the problem he's gone.

Big money to most people.  To Tepper, meh.  I mean he wouldn't just throw that much away, but he doesn't have to worry about paying the grocery bill next month if he fires Rhule.  The question will be if he thinks he can get someone better, or if Rhule still has a shot to improve the team?

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
