Thanks for your input. I am just hoping to get it from the people who were actually in the room.

How about meeting with Teddy as soon as he got the job. In NO, after the Sugar Bowl. 

 

     

Rhule and Cooper were at the Saints' practice facility late in December preparing Baylor to face Georgia in the Sugar Bowl. Just over a week later, Rhule was headed to Carolina to begin the journey into the NFL they once joked about.

On that day, Rhule hung around to talk to Bridgewater after the quarterback finished his post-practice regimen of throwing to receivers to perfect his timing.

Again, the coach saw all the traits he was looking for in a quarterback. He later shared those thoughts with Carolina’s scouting department. He had Brady in the fold by then, and their relationship made it clearer Bridgewater was the guy to succeed Newton.

I challenge anyone that thinks Cam is completely broken to watch his 2020 highlights. Yes, he throws bad balls occasionally not in those, he's not in MVP form, but he is a significant upgrade over what we've seen the last 5 weeks (edit: what we've seen all year tbh). He gives us a real chance to succeed... And it also puts Brady on a real fuging hot seat imo.

You mean besides Rhule? Didn’t matter. He was the only one making that decision. And seems to have had a pretty good idea about his decision as soon as he got the job. Who else are people trying to blame for it?  Is there an actual name or fact you’re looking for? Maybe Rhule was lying to the reporter. That’s happened before.

      I’m expecting a breakout season from Ja'tavion Sanders

      By Car123 · Posted

      Not many are talking about this player. He played well as a rookie last year. If he refines his blocking, continues studying film, and keeps working hard, I can see him being the next Greg Olsen. I’m expecting 55 catches, 700 yards, 4 TDs this season.

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I'm not a Bryce hater and I would 100% move on.  Especially looking at how the upcoming qb draft looks on paper.  Hopefully he continues to improve but if in 3 seasons you're still chasing average season numbers then he's not going to be the guy.  You've just got to keep taking swings until you hit.  Average qbs without any elite physical traits cant get it done anymore.  So this year Hopefully he continues to develop and is above average statistically.

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By panthers55 · Posted

      Meltdowns???? He was pulled by Canales because he wasn't executing the game plan after 2 games into the season so he could watch Dalton execute the offense and show Bryce the windows available in the NFL, how to push the ball down the field and how to step up and move around when blitzed. When Young came back 5 games later he clearly watched and improved. Enough he was named the future starter. He doesn't have a history of  meltdowns nor is there any reason to assume he will have one. From what I have read he is mentally strong and emotional stable. He may have bad games down the road, everyone does. But this is all a learning experience for him and so far he seems to be making progress. I can understand being hesitant on anything Panthers, but Young has surprisingly been able to gain his confidence after a disastrous start. You aren't alone in being cautious but I think he is the future. I thought he was too small and too short to succeed in the NFL. Honestly I was pleasantly surprised last year and am optimistic about the offense for the first time since Wilks and Dalton were decent.
