In case you are out of the area and didn't hear the interview, he's what Rhule said about Slater.

 

As @Zod said, I too, am less confident in Rhule than I was yesterday.

what coach says this about players? I can't think of another coach who does??? Especially after the season?

Regarding Cam, basically said the Panthers reps will sit down with Cam and his reps at some point.

What I get from that is when Cam isn’t re-signed, he won’t find out from twitter.

Step in the right direction anyways if this is true. Also seems like Cam won't even want to re-sign here based on his comments about playing for a 5 win team (and I don't blame him one bit).

It's the one thing I give them credit for - passing on Fields. The guy can't play & he was worse than Trubisky by all numbers.

And Mac Jones really isn't that good either. No chance he'd have done better than Sam here with our OL and coaching. Pats have the perfect system and environment for him and he still doesn't look good most of the time. Can't really complain about not going QB in this past draft, they all sucked last year.

Matt Rhule and Marty Hurney are at opposite ends of the spectrum on this.

Rhule is unable to see that certain players who don't fit the ideal "checkboxes" often have intangibles and other factors that make them very good players.

By contrast, Marty looked at non-ideal players and saw those intangibles and other factors when they weren't actually there.

Interesting insight---I am processing it, but I think you make a great point.

I have no idea. When Tony Dungy turned around the Bucs he used to look for the smaller guys because they typically had more fight in them and had to be more technically sound to get this far. 

Yep. And not directly related but I think it's worth noting, the best pro team in the Carolinas (Canes) has been among the most interested in smaller guys who traditionally haven't been valued and they're currently #1 in the NHL and have made the playoffs 3 straight years and been one of the best teams in that timeframe. Also Tampa Bay Lightning have taken chances on smaller players too and they've won back to back championships and have a good chance to 3 peat this year.

It makes absolutely no fuging sense that these morons get in their head that you need to have some prototypical size to be worth adding to the team. Nippleshorts was the exact same way. If a guy can ball then he can ball it makes no difference what the hell he weighs in at or how tall he is or how long his arms are, etc. Get guys who can play the damn game and understand the game and fit the locker room culture. It ain't rocket science.

And Mac’s play kind of Petered off towards the end of the season

Last years meltdown really came down to one decision that was only on the surface of the bigger issue. The choice to take Jaycee Horn over Slater was in hindsight a potential bad choice, bad in the sense our offensive line was probably our biggest weakness, maybe not the worst choice if Horn shows the promise he had in those few games he played. The bigger issue is that Rhule is so obsessed with making Snow work out at Defensive coordinator that it’s greatly hurting the offense. All this in an effort somehow prove Snow is a capable NFL defensive coordinator, which he is not.

      The Ringer NFC Offseason podcast

      By frankw · Posted

      The division is most certainly wide open. The Bucs are a problem but Baker Mayfield is and will remain his own worst enemy it's a matter of when not if he has a bad game or even a stretch of bad games. As far as the Panthers they have done an admirable job of trying to address needs as best they can without pulling a Scott Fitterer and getting desperate which has only made us worse off in the past. On the Bryce subject all anyone can really say at this point is we just have to wait and see. This is the year and despite what the Panthers may say publicly doubling down and going all in on WR is as good as any sign anyone should need that they expect Bryce Young to have a very productive and convincing season. The pieces are in place. They aren't perfect but nothing ever will be. Regardless there's honestly no excuse for this staff and this team not to be able to compete in this iteration of the NFC South. Also just want to say this because I can say the hyper defensive posts already being made in here and it's probably going to be a season with highs and lows again but hopefully more highs for sure. But just because there is dialogue about a position group or a player that challenges your preconceived notions or makes you uncomfortable does not make it "hate" or "anti" this player or that player. For some people who talk a lot about nuance you would think this wouldn't need to be stated but that's where we're at.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      If I was a coach I would preach "Don't let the refs decide the game" because as soon as you let the NFL the chance to help their bottom dollar whether it be teams that make most money or gambling then they will screw the team that doesn't fit their bottom line......is it rigged? No but do they try and make certain narratives happen abso-freakin-lutley. As I stated in a previous thread NFL players are the ones that SHOULD have all guaranteed contracts but the boot lickers on this forum disagree and argue for the billionaires in this world who own these teams, sheep

      I wont go quite so far as to say games are rigged.  You wouldnt have to work hard to convince me there was the occasional thumb on the scale but outright rigged? nah.   but collusion on the rest of the "business" of football, sure.  No one really believes that the only time the 32 owners act as one is during the negotiations of the CBA do they?
