I knew giving Robbie money was a bad idea. It was such a Hurney move, and people here loved it at the time. Also, it’s looking like we should have kept Arnold to keep Darnold on track. Another move that didn’t totally excite me. Can I get a shot at GM here?

You know it fitterer who gave him the contract extension and not hurney right?

Rhule just wants to hand out contracts to his former college players. What an idiotic way to run an NFL franchise 

What he wants is guys who bought into what he was selling before so that he has a cadre of guys he can lean on to get his point across.

Please note the large number of Temple players as well as those from Baylor? It's six Temple, three Baylor. Was anyone else scratching their head when they saw #57 Clay Johnston out there on defense last week? He's a Baylor guy and I have no idea how he earned a jersey much less a chance to be on the field. 

And what have we found out? That out of those nine players only Haason Riddick is starter quality. But all but Tecklenburg saw the field on Sunday. That worked out well.

I could be wrong but I think earlier this year there was discussion about the front office and the gist of it was Rhule ultimately has final say. It would be interesting to know who pushed more for that contract. I think we can make a reasonable assumption.

That's the sad and pathetic part on matt rhule I keep talking about.  I don't get why we have to have so many of his former college players on the panthers roster. It kinda makes him look weak and a "yes man" to them.  Alot of them were cut by other Teams but they conveniently found their way to Carolina. 

I think it's funny that, for months, I got flamed for pointing it out. Now it's suddenly accepted that Rhule's fake, used-car salesman, nepotism-fueled scam artistry is costing us success.

He’s basically planting “yes men” or “cronies” in the locker room and it looks like he’s still losing it

Well, I don't want to make it sound like that, although it does, but it was more of a "easier to import the culture than to change everyone's hearts."

We sent Cam packing not just because he really wasn't Cam on the field anymore, but because Cam still owned the locker room. Can't change the whole culture if Cam says, "No man, that's not how it works around here."

Still, I don't think the culture has changed in a perceptible way. We've gotten younger, but I don't see us with the mentality of "we will outwork anyone else to win" or any sign of a chip on our shoulder. We don't seem to be making this a pride thing, or even a professionalism thing. Hell, I'm not even sure what our identity is supposed to be and I sure don't want it to be what it is looking like.

We had something those first three games, but Dallas broke us. It wasn't the CMC hammy going, but it may have been the first time someone really hit us in the nose and we just didn't have a bit of grit.

You’re right. Dallas exposed us as not tough. We are crumbling in response to adversity

      Joe Person: Austin Corbett is not expected back with Panthers

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Here is what it said about him coming out of college: Overview A three-year starter with good feet and technique, Samac could be in consideration for a move-blocking rushing attack. He is strong at the point of attack but will have limitations against NFL power. He operates with good hand placement and nimble feet and is a demon once he’s on the move as a pulling center leading the way. He’s fluid and agile in the run game, but those traits fail to do as much for him in protection. Samac punches with inside hands but can struggle to widen his protection base in order to protect his edges. He has eventual starting talent as a run blocker but needs to add more mass and improve in pass protection to get there.

      Through 2 games cltfc has 12 shot attempts. Opponents 23 shots on target. Attack sucks, Defense definitely sucks. Kahlina is the only reason they haven't given up 14 goals in two games.

      Steve Smith on Ron Rivera

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I met a few times--never liked him. I figured he might have had a bad day--but then realized that he must have a lot of bad days. Once he raised his voice at my son because my son did not understand a question when SS was signing his jersey.  I wanted the jersey to represent his encounter with a Panther great, not some small man with a bad attitude.  I told me son, "Forget it.  He was asking you what your name is (My son was about 7 and told me that he thought Smitty was going to write (my son's) name on the jersey.  He said "Dad, I thought he was supposed to write HIS name on the jersey, not mine."  I said, "He was personalizing it, writing it to you--like a birthday card."  He is now grown, and he has a steve smith Jersey that is framed and matted.  He keeps it is his closet.  I asked him, "Why not have that out on your wall?"  He said, "All I remember is an A-hole scribbled on my shirt.  I don't remember a legend or hero.  But he had a Jake Delhomme Jersey on his wall.  "Jake was great.  I will always remember that."  (Jake stayed and talked to us for about 5 minutes or more--GREAT guy.)
