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.

Who are you referencing here?  You're making it up now 🤣

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 🙌

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
