Am I the only one to get the not-so subtle impression that Rhule plays the players against the "fans", here? Possibly in the locker-room as well.

It's been noticeable. Not exactly a wise business model. It certainly hasn't had an impact on the team performing much better if anyone has actually been bothered by it though if the continued blowout losses were any indication. Even teams like the Jaguars and Lions were still fighting at the end of their season.

Sam Darnold just might have been a serviceable QB and we would have probably have won 2 or 3 more games.

We got to stop with this Sam stuff.  Sam is a happy foot turnover machine that literally can’t read a field and operate an offense.  He is historically worse with time. 

Sam can check down and throw to his first read.   You aren’t going to coach him into being a QB this late in his career.  He just simply isn’t good.

When Slater is coming off a year where he was selected as a Pro Bowl starter at LT in the AFC and played at an All-Pro level - you do not, under any circumstance, say something like that to the public. Yes, people miss all the time, but he has to have some self-awareness. Comments like that make him and the organization look dumb. He's getting roasted by experts that know OL play. Free agents aren't going to want to sign up to play for someone like that. 

He just answered honestly though.  Hes constantly getting bashed for lying as he should but then he gives an honest answer obviously at his own expense and it's the same thing.

To be fair and honest, he also said something that is missing from the quote. He said that because Slater had missed the prior year and he did not have the ideal measurable they were not comfortable taking him ahead of Penai or Jaycee. He did not say that they would not have taken Slater if the other two were not there.

Exactly 

Panther fans hate Matt Rhule and there is nothing he could have said in this interview to change that.

Get Sam a line and a real OC and then we can evaluate him.

I been trying to square this away and the only thing it can be is the splash plays he makes has people hung up.

It isn't just Panthers fans giving him the side eye this morning. The team is doing a damn good job of making a mockery of itself without us.

This also confirms that Charlie Campbell of Walterfootball does indeed have a source inside the organization so whoever he says we are picking in his 2022 mock draft is probably at the top of our draft board

Last year during the draft Campbell said “a team picking in the top 10 that needed a tackle passed on Slater because they thought he was too small for a tackle and didn’t want to pick a guard that high,” which is almost verbatim what Rhule just said 

Campbell has correctly called the last 4 Panthers first round picks (and also said the Panthers were going to take Horn no matter who was on the board, BEFORE last years draft)

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Khyber53 · Posted

      Let's be completely honest about this... Our WR room is AT and a bunch of question marks. Thielen is the only guy we know who knows the route tree completely, understands play calls and can regularly get open/beat close coverage when necessary. He's long in the tooth, isn't the speediest guy on the field but he plays like a pro, starting level wide receiver. Xavier, last season looked great at first, but man he kind of petered out down the stretch and would disappear in a number of games. He wasn't reliable on routes or getting open and where he was supposed to be a king at contested catches, he often looked a bit intimidated. I'm not saying he's a washout by any means. Anyone with his size, speed and catch radius could make it big in the NFL, but can he do it? He'll need to show more than he did in the preseason before we can really rely on him as a WR1 or WR2.  Coker was a revelation last season, he really played way above his (non)draft status and flashed multiple times in games and was a steady performer. What we need to find out, though, is whether he was benefiting from being an unknown that wasn't getting maximum effort from opposing DBs or if he was just outworking and outhustling everyone on the field. We should find out this season. We sure as hell didn't find out much in the pre-season (from him or any receiver or QB for that matter). He's still a question mark, but I think he has the look of the real deal. He might be this generation's next Thielen. Now, let's talk about Tet. High first round draft pick, first true WR off the board this year. Stellar career out west in college. Has the swagger of the WR1. And man, y'all are going to get mad about this but... he comes across as a mook. And in the pre-season he performed, well, not so great against poor opposition of second and third stringers. Yeah, he caught that one moonshot ball in the first game but really, nothing else lighting the place up. Rookie endzone drop in that game, too. He's still young and adjusting, I'm sure, but I was hoping to see something of a breakthrough kind of guy. I'm still looking. Hunter Renfro? Gosh, I hope he can make the team and make a comeback to his old form. It would be such a great story. But maybe neither one of those happens. We won't know until Tuesday and then, if he makes it past there it could be weeks. So, TL;DR: AT is all we can bank on right now. We couldn't afford to let him go considering the number of unknowns we'd be throwing out there for our QB, who himself is still an unknown. One thing to add: Our receivers coaching group has their work cut out for them. I hope they are up to the task, but the pre-season gave me little reason to believe in them. And I really need something to believe in here in Carolina.

      2025 Roster Cuts

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Linebacker is the biggest need - I hope we figure out a way to address it. Krys Barnes is the only one who even moderately flashed.  Super nervous about Trevin/Rozeboom as a duo (Still like Trevin) I'd be excited if we had a better vet to mentor Trevin.  Or a better younger guy to support Rozeboom.  They just don't fit well and it may be a big problem against the run, even with our DL much improved.
