Is Matt Rhule the most hated person in Panthers history?

Most hated guy? Don't know.

But I mentioned in another thread that this is as venomous as I can remember seeing the Panthers fanbase be towards the team.

And yes, all the negative feelings about him are rubbing off on David Tepper.

(deservingly so)

The buck stops with David Tepper.

However, until Dave makes a public statement in support of Matt Rhule, all options remain on the table.

I'd like to believe Tepper is waiting for what he considers the best time to take appropriate action.

I think Matt Rhule is an awesome college football coach.  He says the right things and deserved a shot in the NFL.  It hasn’t worked out.  I don’t hate him.  I think he’ll go back to the college ranks and be successful again.

I put the blame on Tepper.  He cares more about championing social issues and building his portfolio than winning football games.  The guy is a billionaire Steelers fan… he owns a soccer team now, too.  He’s not a very good owner, to say the least.

He is a big reason we have Rhule.

And at the risk of belaboring the point...

Dave Tepper (after announcing Hurney's firing):  Marty Hurney's a very good evaluator and has a lot of good aspects to him. Me and Matt both learned from Marty a lot.

Are we doomed as a franchise?

1.  Matt Rhule

 

 

 

2.  Tie - Tommy Jone, George and Tepper

3.   Remmers 

4.  John Kasay for a day 

5.  Keary Colbert post rookie season.  It wasn’t just that he would drop balls like Robby….it was the smile after he did it.

Matt Rhule isn’t even an awesome college coach.   Matt Rhule makes Dabo Sweeney look like Vince Lombardi.  
 

Rhule didn’t do anything in college in reality.  One crap conference title.   That’s the whole resume.

Makes one wonder:  Who did Rhule hire as a press agent?  To the point where Matt became a hot commodity w/multiple NFL teams?  It seems ridiculous, with such a thin resume, that anyone would have ever bought into it.

Trace Armstrong, I think...

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
