You can know football and be a shitty person, Nick Saban and Dabo Swinney are the poster children for that movie.

The difference is they can get away with taking to young kids like that but grown ass men eventually get tired of it, especially when money is involved.

You can’t treat and coach college players the same way you treat and coach adults.

You can also be the best coach in the world but if your character is shitty then you will lose your team.

We have portions of the team playing well but it’s not amounting to success, that’s on your coach. The team is not together right now… hopefully Cam can help fix that but that is on Rhule.

I don’t coach football but I do coach soccer at a high level and hold a ton of licenses, there’s much more that goes into coaching then just knowing the game. At the end of the day, the X’s and O’s amount to less than 50% of what makes a successful coach. That’s why some people who know the game can’t hack it.

 

 

Soccer and football aren't even close to the same. Nothing you do as a coach in soccer translates into football. Not physically or mentally.

Rhule sealed his own fate when they sent Teddy walking lol. 

First they moved on from Cam and then they moved on from Teddy a year later. And then we find ourselves last week watching a bad quarterback playing on a bad shoulder lead our offense to zero points against a winnable NE Patriots team. 

I'm sure Tepper had seen enough by that point.

It literally doesn’t matter.

If you think coaching is only about the X’s and O’s then go spend thousands of dollars on licenses, listen to some of the best minds in the world in sports, and come back and talk to me.

I’ll also mention I did work as a quality control assistant for for an FCS team that is now an FBS team for coaching experience. 50% of the time was focused on X’s and O’s, the other 50% was countless other things. I’ve literally sat in a positions team room with a former Panthers player who is now a coach and we had this same exact conversation.

People tend to forget that these are games that grown adults are playing and there is only so many ways you can play. There is overlap in every system and as adults these players don’t have to be taught much, they’ve already learned it in college. That’s why Rhule is a good coach at the college level, he can teach the game. Bottom line is these are NFL players they don’t need to be taught. He’ll lose the team if he continues to treat them like children.

His downfall is going to be his ego, manipulation, and his integrity. College football coaches are known to be some of the most egocentric coaches because they are treated like royalty by their fanbases and they have to manipulate young kids to get them to join their team.

If he continues to treat these NFL players the same way he treats college kids then he’s going to get the Chip Kelly treatment (which is a great comparison for Rhule).

Shipping Teddy out was absolutely the right move - dude's middling and a rate limiter. Replacing him with Darnold was not ideal. 

I'd love to be a fly on the wall when these conversations are going down.

Can someone translate that for me?  And why is she not catching hell for that word?

God I swear this site is full of boomers. Sheena is saying that the Panthers were begging to have Cam back. And as far as "that word" is concerned, Sheena didn't say it, the person texting her did.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
