This is a typical move I expected. It's like Rivera after hiring CHUD. He went to a guy he knew couldn't take his place. It wasn't till years later he hired Norv and we had a decent concept and scheme. Rhule is going to be Rivera with a lot less winning.

How exactly does another year of Rhule doing more damage make that situation better?

That’s the point. Leash/damage control Rhule and send him out as a lame duck.

How is hiring some equally under-qualified (because that’s all Carolina has access to with what they’re selling) lame duck coach, whose system won’t be implanted all the same better or any different than that? It isn’t, it’s just the same.

Fans want an emotional ‘message to be sent’ firing but it literally means nothing and won’t do anything.

Fact is in what Carolina has to offer you cannot make this situation better. All you can do is take measures not to get worse.

Sorry I don’t see a difference unless 1. There is no damage control or 2. A talented prospect says fug better opportunities I’m going to Carolina.

Quite frankly, I see neither happening. I’ll be pretty shocked if Rhule os allowed to play with next years’ draft picks tbh.

What players are you worried about?  This is a roster on the whole devoid of talent

Chinn, Burns, Moore, Brian, CMC, Horn, Moton, Shaq, Brown. There isn’t a shortage of talent on this roster, the huge issue is Rhule trading away assets on a busted QB and ignoring key OL positions. You don’t keep a coach on the hot seat for a year while you are wanting to tank. What’s to stop Rhule from drafting Pickett, trading away a future 1st to draft another player of his choosing and signing Reddick to a bloated contract. Our situation got worse from Rhule’s first to second year and it very well could even get worse after his 3rd. Tepper guaranteed Rhule 3 years like a fool and he is going to give it to him..

There's no indication that Rhule is on any sort of "leash" or that he will be. And again, if you have to take those kinds of measures, just fire him.

Any notion that we become a more attractive destination after another year of Rhule, lame duck or not, is just silly.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
