"FIRE RHULE" CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP

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.

(along with almost every other member of Panthers related sports media who have said that the wheels are falling off)

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

and your proof are some PR articles of players

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 🙌

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
