This is the face of a lost man...

But hey, he won the post-hire presser. Dude sounded legit, like he knew what he wanted and knew how to accomplish it. 
 

And don’t forget, HC’s like Andy Reid and Tom Coughlin endorsed him.

The second-year head coach signed a seven-year, $60 million contract with the Panthers in January 2020, leaving behind the college ranks to try and build an NFL program. The Panthers devoting that much money to a first-time head coach raised eyebrows, especially from other NFL owners at the time.Sep 23, 2021

 

The man has to have his midlife crisis.

NFL owners were mad that idiot Tepper paid Rhule so much money because it threw off the pay scale for all other coaches. If an unproven nobody like Rhule can get a $60m contract imagine what proven coaches are going to want. 

Either way he’s out of here. 

Then colleges this year said, "Hold my fugin beer!" and started throwing out $100M to guys who had proven even less than Rhule at the college level.

It's the look of a man that has no offensive line and no quarterback and is absolutely helpless. I sat 2 rows behind the Panthers bench, it was pretty obvious how fed up he is with the offense. Still willing to give him the benefit of the doubt considering the extreme poor talent we have on the offensive line and QB. Like, even if you put Bill Belichick at head coach with Andy Reid at OC, I think you have the same result.

Was he worth 60 of these???

He’s not worth 60 dollars, much less 60 million dollars. What an absolute finesse job by Rhule. Gotta respect that.

Helpless really? He's had no say in the direction of the oline or quarterback?

Awesome job if you can get it.

Produce a shitty product.

Get tens of millions in return.

I'm sure Rhule is smilling every payday.

Yeah, it must suck for Rhule to be so bad at his job, but the perks aren't bad and his bank account has never looked better.

They traded for Stafford, he said no to coming here and nixed the trade. Watson couldn't keep it in his pants. So they took a gamble on Darnold and lost. Bridgewater would be just as shitty and we'd still be 5-8 today with him. We'd be worse than 5-8 with Fields. Cam appears to be toast. Pretty clear what the direction was.

Failing college coaches all look the same…

It’s his offense.  It’s his players.  

He has had 2 drafts and 2 offseasons.  

he isn’t a bystander.  Andy Reid and Belichick aren’t going to make CMC the highest paid in the NFL.   They aren’t going all defense in their first draft.  They probably aren’t drafting a DB in the top 10 of the second.  They aren’t bringing in Sam.   They aren’t doing all the other stuff Rhule did….

Our players don’t suck this bad.  The execution does.  For the most part, we have very capable playes excluding the turnstiles on the OL.  Own the suckage Matt Rhule

Not gonna cry about NFL owners paying coaches money. It doesn't affect the cap one bit. Not one of them is hurting for money.
