“And those inside the organization believe the 46-year-old will return in 2022, according to Joe Person of The Athletic.”

Is what the article is based on. Course I can’t read it because I don’t pay for the Atheltic.

This is the full paragraph from The Athletic, and overall it's pretty non-committal.

Rhule has five more years left on the seven-year, $62 million contract he signed in January 2020, but David Tepper has shown he’s willing to cut his losses and paper over his mistakes. Team sources believe Rhule will be back in 2022. But Tepper’s not happy about a fourth consecutive losing season, so nothing’s guaranteed unless or until the $16 billion hedge fund manager says Rhule is safe.

You'll watch in September, but will you be watching in November? Probably.

It's honestly not guaranteed, and I'm not exaggerating.

Rhule is just awful, and I have zero faith in any notion that's going to change anytime soon.

I do however have a lot of confidence that I'm far from the only one who's thinking about it.

I never thought that as a Panthers fan that I'd be embarrassed to be a Panthers fan. This is what David Tepper and Matt Rhule have brought me too. I mean, I used to be able to wear my gear proudly--yeah I still wear it, will wear some tonight at a party--but the other day, as I was taking care of my wife's Christmas gift at the jewelry store, the guy said, "So, you're a Panthers fan." I responded, "Yeah, I know, they suck." That's the depth of conversation now with strangers because I'm reticent of being clowned.

I have progressed like either Rayzor or McNasty said, can’t remember which one, anywho. I’ll watch, but if there is other stuff going on I’m not going to be disappointed I’m not watching. I got the Canes to fill my sports fix. So there’s that.

My biggest issue with Rhule right now was always my biggest issue with Rhule, he’s a college coach, this team has absolutely no identity, no buy in from the players. It just feels like a dead entity. If the players were out there dying for the coaches, I’d probably feel differently. But there is no energy and you can tell by what happened the first few weeks when cam was injected in to the team. There was a mass explosion of energy and excitement. Unfortunately, that’s warn off. Now the players are back to going through the motions because they have to. 
 

And if Rhule is around I expect that to be even worse next year, because no good FA is going to want to come here. Because they know how toxic the culture is.

      Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
