Cutting cam and trotting out bridgewater and the worst starting qb is where a lot of the over the top hate comes from. It’s not just that but that we signed one to a big contract and traded a high pick and a 5th year option pick up for the other.

we suck this year, we’re missing a 2nd and a 3rd for the upcoming draft and Darnold is getting paid 18 million for next year. And the qb class has been deemed not good by many on here for a front half 1st round pick. We don’t have picks in the 2nd or 3rd for olineman. It just feels more hopeless than after Rivera’s first two seasons.  Next year feels like it’ll be the same situation. And we haven’t had a winning season in a bunch of years. All  of that adds to the hate and frustration.

Rivera was a well regarded/proven player/NFL DC prior to becoming the Panthers HC.  

Rhule is a coach who took over a couple of failed mid-tier college programs.  He made both competitive prior to jumping ship after three seasons.  Matt  then demanded total control at the pro level.

Rivera's resume was much more robust IMHO.  Even so, JR was ready to fire him if not for Hurney taking the fall instead.

I don't think it is as bad as you are making it out to be. Head coaches of other franchises have had it much worse look at the Lions or Browns. As for Rivera some people hated that man with a passion and we aren't even close to that with Rhule. Ease up on the hyperbole.

I'm not sure it's as much about football or the situation as it is with people generally being more angry online and wanting a pat on the back for supporting the mob.

 

It's the same as it's ever been. When you're on a losing streak and getting blown out regularly all there is to talk about is negativity. Folks like you acting like this just started recently are either trolling or just confused.

      Charlotte Hornets Offseason Moves

      By jfra78 · Posted

      Bleacher Report trade and mock has us trading to 9 and picking SG Brayden Burries Charlotte Hornets recieve: Kyrie Irving and No. 9 pick Dallas Mavericks receive: LaMelo Ball, No. 14 pick and No. 18 pick The Hornets just finished their sixth season with Ball. It was only their second with a winning record, their sixth without a playoff trip and the sixth in which someone else paced them in win shares (Kon Knueppel this time around). While they'd surely like to keep building on their second-half momentum, maybe they're just unconvinced that Ball can lead a winning team. Maybe they credit that stretch run less to him and more to the addition of Knueppel, the ascension of Brandon Miller and some out-of-nowhere gains on the defensive end.   Charlotte should be dreaming big right now, and perhaps it believes a steadier hand at point guard is needed to realize that. Or maybe it feels it needs a little more time to bring everything together and thinks that task would be simpler without Ball's money on the books and with a top-10 pick in a loaded draft instead of two selections in the mid-teens.   Either way, this shakeup works. Short-term, a healthy Irving should be far easier to follow than Ball. You may not always know if Irving is playing, but you know what you'll get if he does: elite shotmaking, all-time handles, offensive ingenuity and the ability to work both on and off the ball. He could show this young roster what's required to win for a year or two (he has a $42.4 million player option for 2027-28) or even stick around longer if the partnership proves especially fruitful.   The Hornets also add a building block in Burries, who offers both plug-and-play polish and flashes of shot-creation that hint at star potential. In short, they could better their chances of winning both now and in the future while collecting both the best player in the trade and the highest draft pic

      Maybe? Maybe....?

      I'd hire him in a heartbeat. Hell if he wanted the job, I'd have Canales packing his poo right now and I don't dislike Canales. It's just that firing a 106-58 coach is crazy work. That's a 65% winning percentage. That's the equivalent of averaging 11 wins a season. That's incomprehensible for a fanbase That's never experienced back to back winning seaons.
