Teddy was right

Many of us here knew what was up last year when we lost several very winnable games. It wasn’t all the QBs fault.

Yeah, essentially the last year has been us repeating the steps of the scientific method to figure out what is going on here. We've worked through pretty much all of the variables. The constant is Brady.

Teddy has a weak arm, Brady is shielded from a lot of criticism.

Sam has issues going through progressions and making good decisions, Brady is shielded from a lot of criticism. 

CMC is hurt like every other game, Brady is shielded from a lot of criticism.

The O-line has issues, Brady is shielded from a lot of criticism.

But then you have times like last week. Cam plays great, CMC makes great plays, the O-line doesn't look bad, and Brady still can't generate points or really any sustained drives.

Joe has issues with short yardage, Joe has issues with the red zone. So they go out and get him a QB that should be a short yardage and red zone cheat code, and he still looks mediocre.

Brady is just not good enough. He is the constant, and is in over his head.

4 weeks ago I would have poo’d this post and gone on a rant about Teddy talking nonsense and the signs of improvement from last season to this season... but that would have been my reaction for weeks ago. 
 

Now?

 

I hope Tepper does what I wanted him to do when he came here. Tear the ENTIRE thing down, add fist fulls of draft picks and get an NFL coach and let him build this team accordingly.

If I'm Fitt I try like hell to trade down with this year's first and get as many picks as I can.

Rhule and his staff should be gone by the end of the year.  His era is DOA.

Rhule/the staff sucking and Teddy being a crap starter aren't mutually exclusive by any means. The difference last year was that Teddy had years of film on him and the Carolina staff still had some benefit of the doubt. This year though, Rhule and Brady in particular just really seem out of their depth.

With respect to Teddy's comments, it was still a weak move to toss it out as he did, even worse since it was sandwiched with an 'i don't make excuses, but...'. Moving on was absolutely the right move but that doesn't mean Rhule, Brady, etc al don't suck as well.

    • Yea, I've never had high expectations since we drafted Bryce, so it's not like I'm just upset about not meeting them. I went into the season wanting to see player improvement and Canales' play design/calling improvement. I'm now to the point where I 99% only care about seeing individual player improvement.  The 1% is that I unfortunately have to still hope to see Canales play calling improvement, because that is kinda critical for the improvement of all our young offensive players. Offense is different from defense, you need good play designs and calls to show out.  On defense, everything can be a mess, but a great young player can still stand out and look great.  Our defense can be a mess but still have Horn locking down his guys on the outside, Scourton or Princely winning their pass rushing and pressuring the QB, DB swallowing up multiple blockers. But it's very hard for any QB, RB, WR, or TE to individually shine when the play design and calling is poo.
    • He actually said the Panthers are hanging on like a cat on a screen door lol
    • Oh, I'm not 100% expecting/demanding anything for next season. All that I want to see out of this season is progress, but I also understand that progress is not linear. I also understand that we've got a young team and coaching staff that are both developing. Expecting a winning record isn't reasonable at all, but I'll cheer for one all the same. I think that this is where some of the more angsty fans keep themselves in a perpetual cycle of misery: high expectations leads to low resiliency. Folks can have high standards, and the Panthers + Bryce have not met those standards, but some of those standards are completely realistic (like Bryce has to be built like Cam in order to be successful).
