Just for a moment here, I'd like to ask everyone to put aside their opinions about Cam Newton's abilities, his personality, his social media, what should have been done with him, what shouldn't have been done with him, etc.

(yeah, I get what I'm asking, but hear me out...)

I want to ask for opinions on one very specific topic.

How do you view Matt Rhule's relationship with Cam Newton?

What is it that informs you of your ideas one way or the other?

All Matts comments he made to public, more than a few.

How I see it, is that Cam respects Rhule as the head coach because he is a professional, but he's frustrated that we've been losing games. It seems that Rhule is probably frustrated that Cam is back, because he never wanted to be Cam's head coach. But desperate times call for desperate measures, and Tepper went over Rhule's head and brought Cam back.

I think it’s pretty clear that Rhule has some sort of disdain for Cam. Not exactly sure what it is, could be a multitude of reasons but him throwing him under the bus today genuinely made me dislike him as a person.
 

Cam keeping quiet besides discussing his own play and his faults speaks volumes about the character Cam has vs Rhule, who hasn’t owned any responsibility for anything since he’s been here. 
 

I despise Rhule. And I have a feeling the members of the team that aren’t tied to Baylor in any way feel the same.

Cam is proving that Rhule is officially a joke of a HC and doesn't have a clue how the NFL works. 

All that was suspected, it's just obvious when Rhule coddles Sam and then immediately blames Cam who had a better game than Sam multiple times this year. Ohh, and the fact that Rhule put in PJ who goes on to throw an immediate INT was just perfect. The playbook is a joke, the playcalling is predictable and the coaching up is non-existent. 

It's looking like Rhule can't work with any coaches or players that are not in his cult of worship. Cam looks to be keeping it completly professional and Rhule looks like a clown shaped shitstain.

I do not think Rhule likes Cam. He already made up his mind the first go round that Cam was not going to fit into his glorious system. He viewed Cam's personality as a threat to "do your job" and it's "not about one player". He never even gave Cam a chance. I believe the only reason he's back is Tepper dictated it as a desperation to rejuvenate the fan base and potentially make a playoff run...both of which make Tepper a lot more money. Once Cam got here, Rhule took subtle shots at and downplayed the energy that Cam brought with him. I do think that Rhule did slightly change his tune once he got to see Cam's work ethic and how much of a leader he was. But, this terrible strategy of "don't forget about my guy PJ because he knows the 2-minute offense better" and forcing him into the game is a pathetic display of nepotism.

      Can we all admit it now?

      By electro's horse · Posted

      That's also in an era when DBs could press for 10 yards, Qbs could be hit, QBs could have players land on them, incidental contact could be made with the head etc. You can't compare bryce to players like this. What you can do is say who's done less over their first 30 starts and had more resources dedicated to them and at that point you're looking at like Joey Harrington.  At least with Joey there weren't morons in the fan base falling over themselves to compare him to players from the first year of the NFL merger.

      Brees had a pro bowl year in year 3. Phillip Rivers was drafted anyways and Brees went off for two more years before his shoulder was completely torn up in the last game of the 2006 season.

      Fly Over: Would this happen or is this fanbase too far removed to care?

      By ElkinPanthersFan · Posted

      The last time this franchise was in this much despair pre Tepper, the rumors of the banner flyover were met by the front office. They quickly worked with the disgruntled fans to quell any potential negative event occurring at the Stadium or TV. The real question is do we even have enough fans that care to get together behind a movement like this again or is our fan base too far gone that we dont care to revolt like this? Personally, I still go to games each year no matter how terrible it is, but it has went from something I spent all week looking forward to almost as enjoyable as yearly physical. We can count the blunders this franchise has made in keeping Head Coaches, General Managers and players too long. (Rivera,Rhule, Hurney, Fitterrer). Team wise we've missed out on Herbert, we didnt trade Burns for 2 1st round picks, we reached by taking Bryce who would have most likely been were we were going to draft anyway, and extended players who constantly underperformed like Ian Thomas. Even when we are gifted a chance like 2 first for Burns that we shouldnt have paid premium, we fumbled a chance to really jump start the franchise. So this is more to everyone as a whole. How much of your Soul for this team is left? Is it still there that if there was a glimmer of hope, you'd come right back or has the futility of this team negated your love for football completely?
