POLL: What Will It Take For You To Be OK With Keeping Rhule?

[uncfan888]

Rhule needs to fugin go no matter what

[aahainley]

Anger/annoyance aside, I’d say playoffs or 9 wins. He has not been a good NFL coach. He has proven to be a good college coach. For me, the most important part will be showing improvement. That can be improvement on the basis of wins or showing better judgement towards players, coaches, and just mentality towards the game as a whole. If I see good improvement that shows learning, I’m okay with keeping him as long as he continues to be reassessed.

Deep playoff run. One and done in the playoffs wouldn't be enough. 

Just a winning record would definitely not be enough. 

[Burnout189]

Make the playoffs and show a significant improvement in coaching.

But as others have stated, I just don't see it in him to really improve.

[panthers55]

Didn't realize we had any choice in the matter. If we don't make the playoffs this year then I think we should move on.   Will we?? Who knows.

[pantherclaw]

The goal every year is to make the playoffs, and give the team Opportunities to win. 

Getting a ticket to the dance (playoffs), and good football.  

Boy it's been a long time since I've seen that.

He will need to make the playoffs, while making the roster continue to get better each and every week.

Starting fast, only to run out of gas after 5 games....he's a goner.

He doesn't have to win a playoff game, but he needs to be competitive.

This is a good point. The schedule going to be really key, especially when the Tampa games are. Rhule needs a good December.

Nfc championship game. Screw the hype and the promises, I want results. If we draft a qb at 6 I want him gone. His QB track record is horrible and I don't want another flop with college connections to him.

The team needs to look good week in and week out.  I understand that everyone...even the best can poo the bed...but he needs 12 good to great games, not 3 good games.

The closest option in the poll is making the playoffs. But at this point there are only two scenarios I am on board with. Either winning the division or winning a playoff game. He needs to accomplish one of the above to restore my faith. 

[WUnderhill]

After watching Ron Rivera become Riverboat Ron and seemingly change his ways only to revert back to who he was and has always been, there’s literally nothing this guy can do this year to convince me he’ll be any good for the next 5-10. There’s a reason the saying exists “A leopard can’t change his spots.” Beware the fleeting hot seat changes we may see in Rhule this year.

Improvement and 9 wins. That is the bar and is fair and also achievable. It’s put up or shut up time. 

Anything less, he needs to be canned immediately.

I voted same.  But with the state of the NFC versus the AFC I need to change to playoffs if not deep run into playoffs.

[Jackie Lee]

If we make it to the playoffs it will be in spite of Rhule wandering around the sidelines doing whatever he does. Losing control over FA and hiring a new somewhat competent OC weren't Rhules ideas, probably more like Tepper demands. 

[Mr. Scot]

I can't imagine getting on board with that.

He's a college coach in a pro game. I just don't think he's qualified.
