Wouldn’t be against it. Still an Eberflus guy. 
 

Call me superstitious

Capers-Defensive Guy-Playoffs/Division title

Seifert-Offensive Guy- No playoffs

Fox- Defensive guy-3 times playoffs/2 division titles

Rivera-Defensive guy-4 times playoffs/2 division titles

Rhule- Offensive guy- poo show

 

Our “identity” Rhule has been trying to find for 2 years now is what it’s always been. Defense and running the damn rock.

I like Eberflus for HC as well. Pair him with Pederson as OC. They both have Frank Reich connections. Seems like a classic Panthers coaching combo. Pederson can develop a rookie QB.

Pederson and Reich both went to training camp with the Panthers in 95.

Reich obviously made the final roster but Pederson didn't.

Side note: Always felt like we benched Reich too early that year.

I remember them saying it was for Collins development and yadda yadda. Collins didn’t blow me out of the water in 96. We would have had the same or better results with Beuerlein that year, he played great.

A coin flip had big consequences there.

Bill Polian stated that if the Panthers would have had the first pick in the expansion draft, they'd have taken Beuerlein.

Not sure how having the number 2 pick in the college draft would have affected things given that we traded down from number one anyway.

I'm not sure I'd call Rhule an offensive guy. He's always built his teams on strong defense and an okay offense. He has said he owes his success to Phil Snow. The longer you're with someone the harder it is for them to his ego they really are. Rhule seems much more like he's cut from the defense minded Capers/Fox/Riveria mold.

If Pederson has any success running the offense, he's back in a head coach position.  Going this route, it's a one year rental of an OC and back to square one. If you give Pederson the head coach gig, you never have to worry about someone taking your OC and play caller away.

If Dave Tepper isn't ready to can Rhule at the end of this season, I'd feel better knowing that someone like Doug Pederson was on staff and waiting in the wings just in case this team continues to head south in year three.

Firing a Head Coach mid season a lot easier when there's already a viable candidate on staff to replace them.  Right now there is no one that could step into Rhule's shoes.

He's proven, went to a SB, only was on the outs because of that slime ball Howie Roseman, actually was right about some things in the organization (ie the FO wanted to fire Frank Reich the year they won the superbowl but he fought that off), and I believe the players actually liked him. That last year was not on him. 

Dang out of the game and I forgot about him. He put together a great staff his first time. Im still in the "give rhule 3 years" group......but if a legit big name hits the market and has tepper's dollars in his mind....bye rhule..

      Texas A&M Nic Scourton vs. Purdue Nic Scourton

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      I’m honestly not trying to argue with you or talk bad about Scourton, I like him and I’ve watched all of his Purdue stuff/videos you linked previously. Just like I’ve watched all of Princely’s Florida stuff I’m only pointing out the weight thing because I’m excited about the idea of him being 255-260 and being more of a stand up edge here in Carolina like he was at Purdue versus at A&M And like you, I have a crap load of experience doing the whole cutting/weight/fitness thing and I know how crappy/sluggish I feel when I’m holding as little as an extra 8-10lbs of unnecessary weight. So for Scourton to come out and say he’s 255-260 now and feels good that’s exciting based on what he’s put on film at 280 and not feeling his best

      2024 College Football Thread

      I hate seeing this. I'm not sure he was ever going to make it in the NFL without the injury but that injury knocked FSU out of the college football playoffs and cost him and them and opportunity on the biggest stage in college sports. The injuries are the worst part of this game. They've created a nearly unending list of "what ifs". Hell, every HS, college, and pro team out there has a long list of them. It's also a good reminder that there's no such thing as a routine major injury. Even though sports medicine has improved dramatically in recent decades, major injuries are still somewhat of a coin flip on how a guy is going to emerge from it.

      I don't know what Texas A&M was doing with their edge rushers. They had two freaks in Scourton and Shemar Stewart and yet instead of turning them loose they asked them to play 20 lbs overweight and just set the edge. That's full-on coaching malpractice at any level. Much was made about Shemar Stewart's lack of sack production, but while he wasn't my favorite prospect this year a lot of that was clearly what they were asking him to do. The good news with Scourton is that, unlike Stewart, did manage to be a huge factor as a pass rusher despite this and despite playing 20 lbs overweight. If he can stay around 260-265 it should help him re-gain some of that explosiveness from his Purdue days.
