Fire Rhule

Still want to give him another season to see where we are at. Playing the coaching roulette game never works for franchises. I feel like you have to give them 3 years unless they are like 0-3 wins bad the first 2 years.

We are 5-6. How about we let the season finish before calling for heads?

Pretty much this. I remember thinking pre-riverboat Ron was in over his head after blowing a last minute lead in Atlanta early in 2012. I’d have understood him being fired on the spot that day, but obviously patience paid off in that situation. 
 

Funny how we try to (or are at least told to) wait 3 years to evaluate players, but we think coaches should reach their potential in their first year and a half. Rhule will at least match the win total from last year and I doubt we lose out. So there’s been progress. But he obviously isn’t there yet. 
 

My opinion means nothing but from what Tepper said when he hired him I’d be surprised if he’s ready to give up on him already. 
 

Not saying Rhule is gonna be great. Just saying I don’t think you can grade him completely yet.

How is this on Rhule? So he wasted a timeout; it's not the first time. Rivera would waste timeouts, too. That didn't cost us the game.

We had a QB we signed 10 days ago playing a great game and the effort was certainly there on offense and special teams.

Unfortunately, the defense laid an egg. I still am MUCH more optimistic coming off this loss than I was coming off the win over Atlanta a few weeks ago because the defense isn't going to play this poorly on a regular basis. 

On the other hand, we actually have a real NFL-caliber starting QB, which we haven't been able to say in a long while.

The NFL adjusts every week. If you don't add a wrinkle they're going to gash you.

3-4, may have been requested by ownership but we've already seen this movie.

3-4 lost Dom Capers job for him. John Fox came in and went back to 4-3 for a reason.

Not a fan of that defense. I love our players but there being schemed wrong.

Get some hog mollies and stop it. Undersized, is a weakness in the NFL. Can't scheme around that.

    • Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season. 
    • Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.        
    • My top-5 JAGS: 1. Tommy Tremble: May not ever be top-tier, but has been solid and you never doubt the effort. 2. Cade Mays: Not bad for a 6th rounder. Hated to see him go. 3. Brady Christensen: One of the most versatile backup OLs in the NFL. Hopefully we re-sign him. 4. Trevis Gipson: Quietly was really solid depth last season. Glad we brought him back. 5. Brycen Tremayne: Has been solid depth at WR, flashing at times last year.
