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.

      Off Season Thread

      By MillionDollarCam · Posted

      I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.

      Best draft picks ever at each slot (4 Panthers)

      Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.

      Panthers Blueprint out now

      By Gapanthersfan · Posted

      Homerism aside, the more I see from Dan, the more impressed I am.  His player evaluation instincts. Last year his 2 premier FA signings, Hunt and Lewis COMPLETELY changed the line and I have a feeling his success in choosing blue chip guys will continue.  Look at the panthers’s rep for FA signings in the past. By and large, it’s been guys 1 year past their prime who had an injury and suckered our GM in to a crippling contract. We never get nice things. When was the last time this team signed 2 young blue chip studs  in the same offseason to contracts worthy of their impact? Ever?  Im telling y’all, players respect and trust Morgan.
