The guy who had final say on that roster turnover was Matt Rhule.

Sure.  I dont think there were a huge amount of mistakes though.  He inherited an old team at the very start of a rebuild.  Hes definitely made mistakes for sure but it can take time to learn how to be a head coach in the NFL I would imagine.

Building an offensive line around "versatility" was a massive mistake.

I jus don’t understand the power running comment. No back we have is a power runner. This team is lost. 

Lol, I didn't catch that. Lol. What foolishness.

The power run game is built in the off-season. 

They don't have the staff to accomplish power running in the NFL.

Clueless.

The writing was on the wall for Brady .  When Rhule stated that we were going to be a run first team and Brady did not get the message , he was in trouble .  During the press conference Rhule stated that he would evaluate the players and coaches .  Brady was sent packing .  We will see if this makes a difference or not .  Fitts will be looking for a new OC and perhaps a new head coach if the team does not start to look improved .

I think I misread, the quote was a “heavy running game” meaning run the ball a lot. Not necessarily up the middle 30 times.

Don’t think the hire is Fitts call

Exactly right. Should've been done after the Miami game, giving the next OC 2 weeks to implement their scheme in.

I doubt they will be able to make wholesale changes over what these guys have been working on for months. Most likely, you'll see the same plays, but with a heavier run/pass balance. Run, Run, Pass, Punt.

Edit to add: against a team like TB, who is great against the run, that's... not a great plan.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.

      Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise

      Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
