I'm glad you want Rhule fired, but that doesn't change the posts you've made, and then poof didn't make the last few years. It's not like you're anonymous.

So Smithers loves the sixth round long snapper the Panthers drafted, even if he has to sit a couple years to be coached up by Rhule to snap the ball.

Yeah, and I'm the one not coming across as intelligent.

Did I say I loved him?  Nope.  I said y’all are getting too worked up over a 6th round pick.  Which you are.  Get over it.  Or maybe get a job and learn what real world problems are.

The thinking must be giving Thomas Fletcher camp competition instead of just handing him the job 

He got manhandled by the Ravens in preseason so he probably just sucks in blocking. Rhule liked him because, quote, "He's just like, a regular guy!". I'm sure he wants to play and we coulda got him in UDFA but it wasn't exactly a pressing need when there was Trey Smith and a couple DT's available that were not gonna be available post draft

Man I'm still baffled as hell by this one. Jansen seems like a good player and super reliable etc but what on earth did we waste the draft pick on the other guy for then? This is just one of MANY weird foolish and goofy moves by Rhule that tells me he should not be allowed to have the power he does with our team. I can see it and so many others but why in the world can't Tepper see it? As ridiculous as it sounds I swear I could probably coach and run this team at very minimum just as good as Rhule and it should not be that way. For his salary he should be worlds above me or most others but I guarantee you there are guys as assistants who I would put money on could run this team much better. Hell I bet Luke K. could come coach us on game days and practices and give the personal control to Fit and I bet that combo could easily produce more wins and more success year after year than Matt Rhule ever will be able to. Why in the hell is he even still here?

Most smart teams use late round picks on players with major red flags like (injuries, off field issues,  physical talent but never did anything in college) not a long snapper.. The only way to make this move sane was having him replace JJ because JJ is at the end of his career and they can't even do that right..

Smh lol 

Yeah, I remember reading that Jansen wasn’t sure if he even wanted to come back this year.  After the Fletcher pick, seemed like it’d be his last year and Fletcher would take the reigns from next year on.  But nah 😂 Fletcher must really suck.  Glad we’re not going to roll with him if he’s not good enough.  People are memeing the signing but JJ is as good as it gets at LS

the young buck can still win the job.  i assume this is for competition

I'm sure it is. It's going to be tough for this rookie to supplant the best long snapper in Panthers history.  Especially since he was on IR his rookie season. 

I get trying to stash the rook because JJ is still the best for Christmas sake. But his contract ran out so I assumed it was the rookie no matter what. Hard to figure Rhule logic.

    • I used to think Juan was a Zod alt. Agree he's a great poster.
    • Hawks said nah we good and sent him to the shadow realm aka the Wizards. Cold blooded. I mean they're 2-2 in a series with a young up and coming Knicks team largely through 34 year old CJ McCollum. Even if they ultimately lose the series at least they are there and have something to build on. I think Hornets fans are just beaten down and lack the objectivity to assess the situation. They think we are going to get so much worse if and when we finally change gears. Worse how? We've already been a lottery team for years now. We've already been looking to win our first playoff series in about a quarter century. We already can't get past the play in and in failing to do so we have completely embarrassed ourselves twice looking like we don't even belong. Honestly there is absolutely no excuse for a team like the Magic to be more competitive and successful than us in the playoffs. Absolutely disgusting. But that's just me. I was fuging lit when we got the Hornets back in Charlotte but that is old old news. It's time for these boys to get into a playoff series. Enough is enough. If they can't do it for 2026-27 then they need to make wholesale changes regardless.
    • Not one single pick that is asking me why we drafted a guy in the first place. It was a guy we needed and/or a guy that had certain traits making them stand out. Best of all, I feel everyone we drafted are capable of stepping onto the field this year and have a meaningful role (even Kuwatch on special teams). Obviously, nothing is guaranteed but I'm not seeing any huge flags on guys because they're risky projects or massive overreaches.
