 I don't think I ever seen the fanbase hate one man more than people hate Matt Rhule. 

What's your personal opinion?

Do you personally "hate" Matt Rhule more than any other individual who has ever collected a paycheck from the (not your) Carolina Panthers?

What say ye?

Nah. There's a list of other gents we've hated in the past just as much as Rhule. He's just the it guy right now.

This.

I do think he is by far the most incompetent coach we ever had. His handling of the QBs and OL has been worse than anything I've seen here.

He turned around Temple and Baylor.  That was enough to land him in Charlotte.

Maybe awesome is hyperbole.  He was a very good college coach.  He did something right in the college ranks and he speaks VERY well and knows how to sell himself.  

If we fire him, I’m sure he’ll end up back in college somewhere as a P5 HC.

He didn’t turn around Baylor.  Baylor was a good program.   7 straight winning seasons prior to Rhule.  Most of them double digits.  Made it into the top 10 in each of the 4 seasons before prior to Rhule.  

yes, Baylor got punished and hammered.  Yes, Rhule was there while they took that punishment.  But they simply went right back to being Baylor.  Big 12 champs before and after Rhule.  Rhule gets way too much credit for that IMO.

I don't know that people generally hate Rhule so much as he's a victim of the long-running poor performance of the organization. He has put plenty of poor and questionable tape out there and seems out of his depth but Siefert, Hurney, Gettleman, etc were all pretty disliked at various times as well.

I don't blame Rhule for shooting his shot with this job. It just doesn't seem to be working out and fan sentiment is that they're tired of seeing it.


yeah I don’t hate the guy lol, I mean he tried and really wants to win but has just failed miserably.

I don't' think the huddle and fandom have been this united about a person. There's maybe ONE guy that still defends Rhule, Gipetto or whatever his name is. Other than that, Rhule is not liked by anyone here. 

Imagine if you will. A hatred so strong, so United it could accomplish anything. Then picture that focused on Matt Rhule.

    • Draft picks are better for cap management and production always outperforms athleticism over time.  
    • awesome interview. Love the guy. 
    • all the trades and using PFFs draft rankings and Gemini's analysis: This is a high-value mock draft that effectively uses trade-down strategies to rebuild the Carolina Panthers' defensive interior and add depth to a roster with multiple holes. By turning mid-round capital into a volume of picks, you've secured several "sliding" stars and developmental high-ceiling players. Based on 2026 PFF big board trends and player value, here is the analysis: Draft Grade: A- The Top Picks: Interior Dominance  * 19. Peter Woods (DT, Clemson): Getting Woods at 19 is a steal. Heading into the 2025 season, he was viewed as a potential top-5 talent. While his production dipped slightly, his 4.75 40-yard dash at 315 lbs is elite. He provides the Panthers with a versatile disruptor who can play 3-tech or slide outside.  * 63. Dontay Corleone (DT, Cincinnati): "The Godfather" is one of the best pure nose tackles in the class. Pairing him with Woods creates an immediate identity for the Panthers' front seven. PFF loves his "unmovable" anchor. Securing him at the end of Round 2 after trading down from 51/53 is excellent value. The Mid-Round Steals  * 83. Deontae Lawson (LB, Alabama): Lawson is a high-IQ "green dot" linebacker. Many scouts projected him as a late 1st or early 2nd rounder before an ACL injury in late 2024. Getting a 2-time Alabama captain at 83 to lead the defense is a massive win for culture and stability.  * 130. Drew Allar (QB, Penn State): This is the "high-upside lottery ticket" pick. Allar has prototypical size (6'5", 240 lbs) and a massive arm. His stock fell due to a 2025 ankle injury and inconsistency, but at 130, he’s a low-risk, high-reward backup/successor to Bryce Young if the former No. 1 pick continues to struggle. Trade Analysis & Late Round Value Your strategy of "tier-dropping" (trading 51 for 53/121 and 53 for 63/95) allowed you to stay in the same talent bracket while picking up Kevin Coleman Jr. (WR) and Genesis Smith (S).  * 168. Parker Brailsford (OC, Alabama): Great value for a technical center who can compete for a depth spot.  * 169. Tacario Davis (CB, Washington): At 6'4", he is a rare physical specimen at corner. PFF and other boards often have him as a Day 2 talent; getting him in the 5th round (via the 161 trade) is arguably your best value pick of the draft. Summary of Picks | Pick | Player | Position | School | Analysis | | 19 | Peter Woods | DT | Clemson | Elite traits; Top-10 ceiling. | | 63 | Dontay Corleone | DT | Cincinnati | Best run stuffer in the class. | | 83 | Deontae Lawson | LB | Alabama | Vocal leader; sliding due to injury. | | 121 | Kevin Coleman Jr. | WR | Missouri | Speed threat to complement the room. | | 130 | Drew Allar | QB | Penn State | High-ceiling developmental passer. | | 169 | Tacario Davis | CB | Washington | Massive reach/length for a late flyer. | Final Verdict You addressed the trenches aggressively and took advantage of "injury discounts" on Lawson and Allar. The only minor critique is that the roster still feels thin at Edge (until the 211 pick), but the sheer volume of talent added to the interior DL and Secondary compensates for it.
