Rapoport says Rhule will be retained “barring some unforeseen circumstance”

Actually yes. It wouldn't matter if we had Tom Brady in his prime. Matt Rhule has no freaking idea what he is doing as an NFL head coach. Until he's gone, other than for fantasy football, I won't give 2 flying fugs about what happens to the Panthers organization. They deserve all of it for keeping him. Even Marty Hurney was easier to tolerate than this poo show.

The only remote chance you might have at Aaron Rodgers would be to replace Rhule with Nathaniel Hackett, and even then I wouldn't bet on it.

If anything, I'd say keeping Rhule ups the chance that we draft a quarterback with our top pick. Guys like Rodgers, Watson and Wilson aren't going to play for a lame duck who's been a disaster so far.

Hell, what free agent worth their salt at any position is gonna want to sign here?

And now, "Deep Thoughts" from MHS:

This strongly suggests that we are going to have a NEW QB next season.

This strongly suggests that we are going to have a NEW VETERAN QB next season (due to the urgency / finality of the situation

This strongly suggests that we will have to trade for the QB (because no legit veteran on the market would come here (I think Watson and Wilson have already stated that they do not want Carolina to be their next destination.  Garrappolo trade?  Maybe. Trubiski signing as a free agent?  Perhaps)

This strongly suggests that the focus of the offseason will be on offense, meaning that we may not re-sign some defensive free agents.

This strongly suggests that we will trade back in the draft to acquire 2 OL because the OL was exposed (G, C, and RT) and one upgrade will not get the job done. 

This could also strongly suggest that Rappaport has no idea and is speculating based on the tea leaves he is reading.  I personally think Rhule is gone if he loses the last 2 games.

    • I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies     
    • 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.
