If we keep Rhule (it sounds like we will) I really hope he gets some qualified assistants and listens to them… Roster control needs to be out of his hands as well. I just don’t understand the 3rd year guarantee nonsense….

For me this would be the worst case scenario, with him being fired next Monday being the best case. If Rhule is retained it would be best for Tepper to jump in and hire some NFL experienced assistants. That way, when Rhule is fired mid-season, those qualified assistants can take over and not folks from Rhule's regime. Sounds right in my head but who knows.

Yeah that would be best case scenario if Rhule is around, but would he even want to return in that situation knowing the writing is on the wall? That scenario basically reduces him to an overweight cheerleader who doesn't know how to manage time outs, a far cry from the initial goal of him being some genius program builder who brought in his whole crew to turn another bad team around.

I get the sentiment but that is an awkward awkward situation for anyone to walk into.

I honestly can't recall an owner or a GM ever forcing assistants on a head coach. Even the ones that have insisted on changes have allowed the head coach to make those changes himself.

You're right I didn't articulate my thoughts accurately. But yes, what I meant was for Tepper to step in and "ask" Rhule to make new hires, meaning he has to choose assistants from outside his bubble.

The last time that happened, he turned down a job (Jets).

Throw in his comments about Joe Brady being "outside his comfort zone" and I think that idea's going to be a tough sell.

Mind you, any scenario that would make Rhule rage quit would be perfectly fine with me.

So let me get this straight, you're saying that Joe Person, a Panthers beat writer with inside access...(is) wrong.

Yes, that's exactly what I am saying. 

F.J. Person doesn't have any "inside access"...what he has is some anonymous whiny-ass disgruntled agents who are playing him like a puppet, embarrassing for him.

No the proof is what The Alpha Dog said on a 100% unsolicited basis 🙌

He will not get rid of ‘his guys’.  It simply won’t happen 

he isn’t going to relinquish roster control 

he isn’t a x and os guy either 

why keep him ?
 

you see lefleur    McVay. Kingsburry   Other top coaches, calling   plays. This guy walls around looking confused at  a sheet

I don't think Cam has ever said anything negative or thrown any of his coaches/teammates under the bus. At least, not publicly.

He doesn't get it, and he's not going to.

There's better ways to be part of the conversation of course, and I've told him that before. But that's not what he wants, so... 😕

53 in the last 22 hours....good onya mate 😉

Heck you could take the missus to lunch and still be one pace upon your return 👍

See @travisura, this is another example. Rather than actually answering any of the things I've said, he remarks about my post count.

Again, I'm sure he thinks that makes some kind of point, but it's only in his head.

Agreed, but not relevant.

What is relevant is that in this case Cam unequivocally supported Rhule on a completely unsolicited basis.

He saw what was going on and knew it was wrong...and being the stand-up guy he is took it upon himself to right that wrong 🙌

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
