If Matt Rhule is the coach next season, I will…

I have watched every game (not always live) since I was ~ 12 years old. I'm 31 now. That's close to 20 years of dedicated game watching. I obviously post here. I watch preseason games. I'd consider myself in the upper echelon of Panthers fandom. Probably 98%. 

That being said, if we keep Rhule next year, my interest is going to be lower than ever and not be a close margin. I normally, even in 2010, am very invested.

Next year I will not be invested, emotionally or financially. I will likely break my 20 year streak and not watch some of the games. Already this year I find myself scrolling my phone more than ever, when normally I am glued every play. 

Idk if David Tepper is reading this but if you are know that keeping Rhule will not only have an impact next year, but for years to come as he desperately tries to save his job with decisions that hurt the future, further I don't know if a single fan matters but you're on the verge of losing one of your biggest ones.

I'll cheer MY team and hope that they turn it around of course! Complain all you want now, but once the jerseys are on you cheer YOUR team! That's what being a FAN means. It hurts and sucks at times but that's a part you need to deal with.

If you can't, I suggest you only watch Scottish soccer and pick the Celtics.

I will watch because I’ve always believed he was getting three years no matter what. If we don’t show improvement this season he will be gone. If we show improvement then we are a borderline playoff team and Tepper gets applauded for sticking with his guy and not reacting out of emotion. If he sucks again then we better not miss on the next one.

I’ve been a day 1, 1995, watching games when they played at Clemson. Season ticket holder.  2001 was hard but hey, we were still only 6 years old as a franchise. 2010 was rough but we knew we’re getting Luck or Cam. I’ve stuck by thic  and thin. These past couple years have honestly done me in. Why?  No hope. I don’t know how this franchise turns around. Under Tepper we become bottom barrel trash and gamedays are filled with opposing fans and it’s not fun anymore.  People ask how Lions and browns fans keep coming back but they have something we don’t and that is a long rich history of an organization. it’s just not fun anymore going to games and watching these games when there’s clearly no commitment to winning versus an owner that only cares about making money.  I know plenty of people that feel the same. It’s sad because I really loved this team, but it became clear, Tepper and this organization don’t love us back.

Applauding terrible decisions doesn't equal "Cheering for my team".

      Xavier Legette is the face of the NFL at the Kentucky Derby

      You joke, but hasn't basically the whole team been in Charlotte this past week together? I'm not one to see the random dumb stuff players put out on social media in the offseason and think it means that's ALL they've been doing and not working on their game.  But it's a little strange that all this is coming out at the same time we're seeing tons of stuff with the team in Charlotte together, even if it's just working out and not even official team OTA's or anything. So he gets a pass from me saying anything now, but if he doesn't show clear improvement this season, it then opens him up to some retroactive criticism for some things.

      Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!

      An honest look at Bryce Young

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was.
