Black Monday

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

I doubt Miami fires Flores without a plan in place. Their owner Stephen Ross is a Michigan guy - I could see them hiring Harbaugh.

Not only is Joe Judge an awful HC - he appears to be a douche meat head. Grabbing his jock after the panthers game, idiotic press conferences, saying stupid poo. I’m sure Belicheck thinks of him as a son. 

I mean outside of the whole jock thing, is that really much different than Rhule?

Jags even finished the year knocking off one of the hottest teams in the NFL without a HC….and they got nothing on their roster. 

Yep jags, jets and Texans all looked better than us yesterday against playoff teams

Dolphin fans are understandably pissed.

Rhule fired yet??

[CarolinaNCSU]

Can't wait until we weirdly fire Rhule in a couple of weeks after most jobs have been interviewed for and filled.  Whatever the dumbest possible outcome is (besides keeping Rhule), it's what I'm expecting from Tepper at this point.

Yup, only 1 game under .500 in three years and Flores got axed.  Our HC is 13 games under .500 and he not only gets to keep his job, but gets find a new scapegoat...uh, OC.

Wrong skin tone

I'm starting to think Tepper is doing this on purpose so the Panthers always suck to get Charlotte excited about the other football. I don't think that will work out too well.

So Miami fires a coach with two straight winning seasons, while playing the Patriots and Bills twice each season.  I get that they also played the Jets, but still.  Two straight winning seasons out of three seasons coached for a team that hasn't done that since 2002-2003.  Fired.

But Rhule remains.  SMH.

I really hope it’s not that…. I would like him over here in Carolina ASAP. He had a line that was early on graded worse than ours and coached up his team to making a playoff push. Providing we find a QB he would turn us around quick!

This is about money plain and simple. Giving up on a HC that’s after two years on a seven year contract is an expensive mistake. Better to give him another year on the condition of changes to the offensive staff and better FA’s. Not that I completely agree but that’s my take on why Rhule will likely survive Black Monday.

There is no other explanation they can give to fire a coach with back to back winning seasons

Probably not the only reason but a factor I’m sure. Seen this play out too often to think otherwise.
