So many posts exactly like this in 2012 

At this point in the 2012 season our team was improving and we saw light at the end of the tunnel. Matt Rhule hasn’t fixed one problem that existed before he got here. Our o-line is a train wreck and I’m sorry, there’s no way Brady could be worse than Erving or Daley at LT. Erving might be able to help us at LG but we’ll never know with Rhule in charge of personnel. Someone tell me how Deonte Brown is worse than all of these horrendous interior lineman we keep trotting onto the field. Rhule isn’t trying to find answers, he’s more focused on proving he was right to begin with. It’s ok to be wrong, it’s not ok to continue being wrong. That dumb motherf**ker has never owned up to being wrong about anything in his life.

I am not okay with this product after two years but coach rhule has had possibly the hardest introduction you could have in the nfl as a new head coach with covid basically giving him one and a half years to build. 

That would hamper certain things but if anything, you would think that would make getting some help with NFL level coaching experience even more critical. He has refused it thinking he has some identified success route. Too much BS for my taste. And I’m a late changer with turning on him.

It is a possibility that things can recover. Give rhule one more year. I believe he deserves that! Obviously I'm in the minority but rhule will surprise you. Get in his and the team's corner.

He has surprised me with how long he’s willing to try the same ideas expecting a different result.

Are you on the practice field? Are you spending late nights evaluating technique from practices? If those guys are not ready than they are not ready. Stop falling in love with youtube highlight tapes and measurables.

Rivera took over a 2 win team and turned them into an .500 team ready to compete for the playoffs by the end of his second season.

Rhule took over a 5 win team and turned them into a 5 win team ready to threaten for nothing by the end of his second season.

Rivera found his QB in year 1. His defensive leader in year 2. Had Steve Smith, Jordan Gross, Ryan Khalil, Travelle Wharton, Thomas Davis, traded for Greg Olsen, had a good trio of RBs, found a good backup QB, had a DL that could stop the run and rush the passer.

Rhule hasn't decided on his QB at the end of year 2. He has no defensive leader. There is no big play pro bowl WR threat teams are scared of. No pro bowl OLs. No OL leaders. No TEs to threaten a defense. CMC and Abdullah will be good when he gets an OL. Has a mess of a backup QB he likes from his college days. Has nothing on defense in the middle to stop the run.

Rivera had coordinators who were in position to become NFL head coaches by his 2nd season.

Rhule has coordinators he is firing by his second season and college buddies he replaces them with.

Are you telling me that you are unable to see the obvious difference from the Panthers being built for the playoffs under Rivera and the Panthers being imploded by Rhule?

Ron Rivera never had a stretch of football as bad as the past 2 seasons have been under Matt Rhule.

Only stretch remotely close was under Seifert in the late 90's and those teams had maybe 30% of the talent Matt Rhule has had to work with.

If you truly are sticking up for Matt Rhule after what we've all witnessed the past 2 years I'd serious have to question your understanding of basic football.

      Travis Hunter on T-Mac

      By Seltzer · Posted

      T-Mac put up good numbers for 3 consecutive seasons on teams without a good QB situation, and in an environment where T-Mac got game planned against weekly and still performed. Teams threw all kinds of defensive coverages against T-Mac, and he still found ways week in and week out to contribute at a high level. XL was basically a 1-year wonder. Doesn't mean he cant be great (and I think him & T-Mac will compliment each other well), but i think T-Mac is the more polished of the 2 right now. This certainly isn't a perfect comparison, but I hope XL & T-Mac can approximate what we had with Smitty & Moose (Although i think T-Macs ceiling is higher than Moose and XLs ceiling is lower than Smitty). Both those guys were multiple Pro Bowlers and even All-Pro. T-Mac & XL have a long way to go to actually being comparable, but the potential is there. And regardless of how this season turns out, you can actually see a strategic plan being executed. On paper, I think this offensive roster has as much talent as any Panthers team since 2017. Defense is still a question mark, and it's unrealistic to think we will go from being historically bad to great in 1 year, but based on historical and statistical data, we stand a much better chance of turning the defense around in 1 year than the offense. I still want us to potentially add at S, CB, and ILB, but this roster is exponentially better than the roster heading into the 2023 season. Which still begs the question of how & why the team thought they were in a good position to trade all the way up. Regardless, it's in the past, and while the past 2 years have mostly sucked, we are strategically in a much better position than we have been in years. This is easily the best WR group since 2020 IMO (Moore, Anderson, Samuel). I'm super excited about what T-Mac can bring to this offense and team, and I'm really hoping we continue to build off where we ended last year offensively, and hopefully we've made enough improvements on defense to be competitive. I've also been vocal for the most part in supporting BY9. He came into an awful situation and to a team that was in no position to make such a trade.   Still, this is Year 3. And this is a team that IMHO has both the talent & depth on offense to score and score a lot. Most QBs that ever amount to anything are competing by Year 3. There are no excuses for the offense not to perform. I think BY9 knows full well what's riding on this year in terms of his long term future.  And I think T-Mac is a massive piece in helping Bryce and the team get over the hump and back into playoff contention.
