Nowhere in that report does it say he kept Matt Rhule to avoid embarrassment.  That's your tin hat obscuring your vision.

I think Matt Rhule sucks as a NFL HC and I think most get that.    Think my eye sight is pretty good in that direction.

Your source is awesome.

Yeah, when long time and known beat writers come out with something? 

yeah, I generally think they have it nailed big picture more often than not.  

and that same reporting said Rhule would get this 3rd season too.

Cool.  Then you should agree with your source when the article says:

Tepper seems to be very direct and straightforward.

Panthers could start 1-8, finish the season 2-6…and Rhule will still be the coach 

This unfortunately. I do believe Tepper has stated he is getting this season and next and possibly one more after that. I seriously believe him when he said that and as much as I don't like Rhule as head coach I think we are absoly stuck with this incompetent narcissist for at bare minimum two more seasons which sounds absolutely awful to me. I'm still in shock Tepper said at least this season and next then added a possible one more. Puts zero pressure on him to do anything different at all and still be same old Rhule.

Tepper said Sam Darnold was a very good QB repeatedly right before the draft.  

Tepper says things that aren’t true to the media and public.    This is not a unique concept. 

*spoiler alert* Tepper does not think Sam Darnold is a very good QB

You're not arguing with me.  Now you're just arguing with the beat reporter who you "generally think they have it nailed big picture ".

So you've been railing against Tepper and Rhule from day one?

Neither, actually.

Was okay with Rhule in year one but it only took till about midseason of year two to confirm he was in over his head.

Tepper? Was ambivalent early on, waiting to see if he's be good or not. Then he kept Marty too long and followed that up by giving a mid-tier college coach full power.

    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
