John Ellis reporting Fitterer and Rhule will meet with media today

David Tepper is apparently too chicken poo to face the press in person and explain why he's keeping the WORST coach in the team's history.

After TWO seasons of only 5 wins each Rhule is being retained for a season 3.  No other Panthers coach with a record of 5 wins or less has ever been retained for an additional season.  

Tepper has done it twice.

Houston, we have an ownership problem.

Careful, I continue to get flamed for this opinion. 

Spoiler: 14 months ago, I got flamed for saying Rhule would never work out and that he was a clown.

This board is extremely reactionary but like I don’t really understand what Tepper is trying to do here. I’m not mad or upset I’m just like whatever. I don’t live in NC anymore so it means nothing to me for the franchise to move besides nostalgia. Tons of real world things to be mad about. But this is a full on mutiny of the fanbase and he knows this. This isn’t some shade of grey thing it’s very cut and dry. Rhule isn’t an nfl caliber coach. So what is his long play here? Turn your back on the fanbase to help facilitate a move to another location? I heard he wanted a new stadium. So is he gonna use that as leverage to move?

Wonder if Tepper is gonna try moving the team at some point. 

I mean the way things are headed he may not have a lot of people fighting for them to stay. Could end up like the hornets where the city was just like “peace, GTFO” and basically trade them for a different franchise

this is some pretty good tinfoil hat critical thinking you got going on here but honestly it wouldn’t be the first time an owner tried to piss off the fan base and city

I want a reporter to ask the following questions:

-You preach analytics but you gave cmac a record breaking when the data says RB's on their second deals are not worth it, what was your mindset with this deal?

 

-Can you explain the rush to sign the 2 lineman in the first HOUR of free agency?

 

-Can you explain your thought process of giving up so much capital for Sam Darnold when it appears your were clearly bidding against yourself?

 

-Can you explain your thought process in picking up the 5th year option of darnold needlessly?

 

-Can you explain your evaluation of Rashawn Slater and Micah Parsons? 

 

-Can you explain your hesitation in playing BRady Christenson even when your playoff chances were minuscule and the left tackle in front of him was clearly struggling?

 

 

I think those are fair questions that Fit, Rhule and Tepper should answer

    • It's rare enough for a running back to tear the same ACL twice. There's not much of a sample size on the recoveries. And of course Dobbins has missed a lot of time--he was injured twice. That number will drop as his career continues, and even if it doesn't, that doesn't necessarily mean it has anything to do with the prior injuries. Dobbins just started and played well for a playoff team all year until he was injured by a hip-drop tackle. Surely his ACL recoveries didn't contribute to his completely random foot injury caused by an illegal tackle? Again, I'm confused why everyone is being so definitive that there's 'very little chance' of any meaningful contribution ever when the greatest counterpoint ever played for us. Thomas Davis tore the same knee over and over again and was basically fine. As for the roster-building stuff, we'll see what happens with Chuba and Dowdle at the end of the year, but Etienne's not going to factor into this. Either Brooks comes back, in which case we've already seen more from him than we have from Etienne, or he doesn't. But Etienne's not forcing him off the team. If anything, Etienne's current role is his absolute floor.
    • Then I would assume disingenuous. Why on earth would you consider this an "exciting" time to be a Panthers fan? Let me ask this, how old are you and how long have you been an NFL fan?
    • An ESPN writer had a good breakdown of teams that were likely to come back to earth(KC and Redskins were two of them) based on outlier results in 2024 in close games. I think that has a lot to do with it. Found it: https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46003861/nfl-teams-likely-decline-lose-more-games-2025-season-predictions-vikings-chiefs-commanders-lions-colts
