Panthers haven’t fixed their problems in 2 years of Matt Rhule. They’re making new ones - at CO

I has always been worrisome to me that Tepper admitted Matt Rhule was Marty Hunrey choice as HC

Hurney has selected, or been a part of the selection, for our last 2 coaches Fox and Rivera. Now Rhule and he is literally just another Rivera which is no surprise. Never understood why people said Rhule was offensive minded coach. His college teams offenses have always been mediocre to bad. SInce 2001 we have had the exact same type of coaches.

The Eagles did that a while back. About two years later, they found they weren't getting any real value out of it and mercifully put an end to the thing.

It's okay though. Ours will be different! Our version will work! 👍

That's part of my issue with Tepper though. He wants to be the smartest guy in the room...but he's not. 

Every once in a while the league gets someone who wants to do  things different than the norm because he thinks it'll be innovative. Such folks frequently find out that there's good reason why things are done a certain way.

Yup. There are prototypes for a reason.

Ruhle did at least fix one issue he inherited.  When he took over, the defense was old and terrible.  2019 was far and away the worst Panthers defense I have ever seen.  Last year's was slightly better.   This year's defense, while not great, has moved into the top 10 and is young enough to stay there for a few years.

And it only took 15 draft choices and signing Hassan Reddick.

11 I think, if you are counting defensive picks under Rhule. 

 

But free agent signings and draft picks are how you fix things in the NFL.  The issue is not that they did it wrong on the defensive side, its more that they didn't follow the same pattern on the offensive side. 

Instead of signing Bridgewater and then trading picks for Darnold, should have drafted a qb this past year, and drafted more offensive linemen.  Should have kept Bridgewater for another year, drafted Fields or Jones, let them sit for a year while we rebuild the oline.    

And as good as Marshall might eventually be, probably should have gone with a heavier concentration on oline during the second and third day.  I never understood the rationale behind drafting Marshall while extending/paying Anderson.

These young sports writers at the Observer are giving us something different. Got the feeling the older ones would criticize or predict against the Panthers just to prove they were not homers.  These young ones like Ellis (the newest) and Luke seem to be giving a lot more content.  Hope Tepper is reading them.  

 

(He'll probably try to get them fired...lol)


They’re having to shift strategy. With the Panthers scaling back access in favor of in-house media (which is typically favorable), CO is being more critical to differentiate.

I guess the Panthers could retaliate but it’s not like there’s much more they could do considering how much they’ve already cut off external media. They killed off all the leverage they had.

I think these guys are doing a great job of analyzing, i.e., doing their job well.

I suspect Dave/Hurney/both though he/they might be outsmarting the NFL/ahead of the curve with the Rhule hire and all that stuff about analytics and setting up a sport science program that we've never heard anything else about since then. Unfortunately, the rest of the package seems to be lacking.

The sports science program is being ran by this guy…

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
