I do agree they should have played some but it's not always common for rookies to come in and make an instant impact.    Sometimes some time before being thrown in the fire is better.  Again I dont think that is really the case here because it couldnt get much worse but I am saying if you're looking for mid to late round rookies to come in and save you that's not always for the best.

Not looking for mid round rookies to come in and save us. But if you draft 2 offensive linemen, and during the short time they get to play, they actually don't look bad, you play them. Especially if they played better than the guys currently starting. And it's not like we're talking about 1 or 2 bad games. These guys have been horrible all season. We're not winning. We're not really even competing. Heading into the off-season, you need to know what you have to be able to build a better team.

By coming out and saying Darnold is going to play this week, it looks like he's going to treat the rest of the year like preseason. Well, except for the part about actually playing guys to see if they might be any good like Brown and BC. 

Well, he ain’t going to treat it like preseason if he plans on playing Sam.  Remember, Sam didn’t need preseason play per Matt Rhule.    Opposing coaches set up some practices and that was all Sam really needed.

For the start of the season and ongoing, Matt Rhule's been banging the table on establishing his brand and identity for the team. Of course, as the losses kept piling up with no direction in sight, that brand and identity is certainly unknown to many.

Nevertheless, meandering through twitter, I came across a tweet that perfectly encapsulates exactly the brand and identity the Panthers carry this season.

The Panthers are mere practice squad fodder. Simply put, a bumbling group whose sole purpose is to be the chopping block of the NFL. Matt Rhule's brand for this team has proven it in no way can compete with the likes of the NFL and is in fact the equivalent of practice squad dummies.

That's the identity this team has established. A traveling practice squad with no purpose of their own to be any more than that. 

Nothing has been shown that this team is otherwise nor will be anything more than such. In order to escape this hellhole of a brand, David Tepper must nip the Rhule turd before it sinks this franchise even further down.

Hopefully it happens sooner than later.

Until then, the Panthers will continue being practice squad fodder for the league to pad their stats and wins against, and that is not a good outlook.

Oh hey, you're alive.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
