Matt Rhule is coming back next year. There’s nothing we can do about it and we need to move on.

You can always cheer for the players.  Remember yes they may suck but they diddnt put themselves on the field.

One of the problems is Rhule won't put them on the field to route for them. If we had BC and Deonte, maybe Shi and TMJ playing all year and taking their lumps we'd be more accepting of "the process". They're pretty much all still question marks for no reason

Rhule might be even more stubborn than Rivera about young players.

I'm strangely okay with it. Not super enthused about Rhule's third year, but I'm REALLY not up for another regime change. 

Maybe Rhule can learn from his mistakes. Maybe he can grow. Maybe we expect too much instant gratification to let a leader develop. 

It took Rhule one year to create the league's second best defense. Our offense was hindered by a garbage line and our franchise RB being injured AGAIN. If we invest in quality protection, maybe we can see a similar turnaround on the offense.

Maybe not. 

But considering it looks like a done deal, and I personally have no control over it, given the choice between holding out hope, and endlessly spamming clown gifs, I'll go with the former.

Next level analysis, Rhule is playing chess, given he likely knows he is out of his league at this point.  He is on contract for tens of millions more dollars.  It stands to reason, given his go to comments “I can go to another college program and make more money”, that maybe he is angling to get fired without cause enough to void his guarantees in his contract.   Media and fan outrage are an embarrassment but likely no real grounds to void the guarantees in his contract.  Rhule knows at some point he can get it to the point of no return and Tepper will have to act.  This will be at the end of next season when we have totally tanked, and we have better draft capital and likely much less competition from other NFL teams for top coaching talent.  At that point Tepper pulls the trigger and Rhule maximizes his earnings from the Panthers and likely goes back to the college realm, essentially double dipping getting paid as an NFL coach on guarantees that were bought out and a multi-million dollar college salary from a mid major or lower tier Power 5 school.  As Denzel said in training day, “Boom, checkmate!”……

There is something we can do about it. Voice our opinion and hit Tepper where it hurts, the wallet. Refuse to go to BoA and watch or support this trash product. Let’s see how well it looks when PSLs are renewed next year. It could be the return of the blackout, that will get his attention.

      Monday practice tweets

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
