I thought he had the first year in year 2, if you understand...... I went to the ABC store given I thought it was going to a looooonnnngg season in 2020, found out you need to sign paperwork if you buy over 4 half gallons........yea thats what I thought. Also found out they have a cart....

I was shocked the panthers were in all but 2.5 games, 8 loses of one scores or less. I didnt want Rhule and thought he did great cause I had them as 2-14 3-13 at best. Remember the NFL got another Brady that year and Bressus was still try harding.

This past year, after 3-0 start.....really felt like the panthers end as the worst team (no matter the records). Rough and I did not enjoy it, unlike the year before.

10 wins.....I doubt that. Right now I got them at 8-9. Need that 2021 draft to grow up fast, Derrick Brown needs to command a double-team, Mccadoo to work his QB magic on all the QBs, CMC full healthy the whole season, and soooo much luck.....

That's a lot of "if's" to overcome.  I personally cannot see them being any worse than last season. It's almost impossible with an experienced nfl staff now in key places.  Putting Joe Brady in charge of an nfl offense was beyond idiotic. I'm still having trouble comprehending that decision.

Teddy had the 18th biggest cap hit among QBs. 

I realize the dead money was bad.  But that doesn’t mean Rhule wasn’t out there making his own mess.

We were promised a rebuild.  Rhule could of gone that path.  He opted not too.  Or he just doesn’t know what he is doing.  I don’t care about winning if we are rebuilding.   He just seems to be wasting our time at this point though.    5 win seasons aren’t all created equal.  Depends what has gone into it. 

I mean his first major decision here was to have CMC be the highest paid RB in the NFL.  That’s not how you rebuild.  Nor is his mismanagement of the QB spot.  Rentals like Reddick.  Gilmore. Rhule isn’t rebuilding squat.  His actions have always countered whatever Tepper was selling us IMO.   Losing is fine if their is vision.  Rhule ain’t got it.

I disagreed with the CMC signing as well, I was alone in that. Feel free to look that up too. Rhule has made plenty of mistakes, no question. Still the team is better than when he got here(should be), faster across the positions, and much younger. Darnold CAN improve or Carrol CAN be a legit NFL QB. Thats the last huge hole on the roster. This coming year is big, I disagree with the 5 year talk as well, he needs to show me something this year.....It was wrong to this fake winning at all cost while you rebuild.

That has nothing to do with my point that no one can counter- Hardest start for a new HC in NFL history, no one is close.

About 19 Ifs to overcome, you are right thats a lot.... 

Brady just had no NFL solutions to the weekly problems. CMC covered for him like Cam did for RR. Having the same agent may have played a role, but after everyone saw the LSU talent......my dog could have had the same results as Brady.

Brady didn't have any experience that qualified in for consideration. He got hired just like Rhule did, on hype only. He road in on breif connections to Sean Payton and Joe Burrow through the media mouth breathers. He had zero offensive coordinator experience at any level. 

It was a terrible decision to put him in charge of an nfl offense and Rhule found out the hard way. I'm sure Tepper made that perfectly clear in one of his hard question sessions. Probably the day before Rhule corrected that mistake.

You will have to take a seat like me and just watch the prognostication. About all I can do is try to predict how it's all going to play out. It's let going to the track and betting on the horse. I would lose either way.

Joe Brady would have made sense for a team like KC or Tampa.  HC is an experienced NFL OC that likes to control things.  Uber talented QB that is going to be involved with play calling.  It’s an environment for growth.  Which is what someone who has never been an OC needs.   See Leftwich.

Sure, sling and spin that poo.

He didn't know what he was doing and he and Mr. Money thought he did and gave him control of a roster and a team that he never should have had.

Instead of improving the team, he put it in a deeper hole.  It seems he's finally had control taken away from him, control someone with no knowledge of the league should have had.

He was supposed to turn the team around, instead he turned it from one clusterf*ck into a bigger one.

A better, more pro experienced coach would have made the team better and had them with a winning record within a couple years.

      Canales is holding us back

      Yeah I was crying about this earlier in the year when we got to 6 wins. Equal number to Wilks.  We are still a QB away.

      The Hall of Fame case for two different NFC South quarterbacks

      By Verge · Posted

      Hey y'all, a topic that has been on my mind has always been the parallels between two of the best quarterbacks in the history of the NFC South and ultimately their place in history and how they are viewed moving forward through the rest of NFL history. These two quarterbacks as you might have guessed are their respective franchises greatest signal callers, Cam Newton and Matt Ryan.  Cam Newton (144 Games Started): 269 TDs (1.8 per contest), 123 INTs, Super Bowl Appearance, OROTY, MVP  Matt Ryan (234 Games Starter):  394 TDs (1.6 per contest), 183 INTs, Super Bowl Appearance, OROTY, MVP  Obviously on first glance, these are very similar players with identical top accomplishments. Let's zoom in a little bit on their surrounding talent. C Cam Newton top offensive producers:  Greg Olsen (TE) (9 Seasons) (3 Pro Bowls) Steve Smith Sr. (WR) (3 Seasons) (1 Pro Bowl) Matt Ryan top offensive producers:  Julio Jones (WR) (10 Seasons) (7 Pro Bowls)  Roddy White (WR) (8 Seasons) (4 Pro Bowls)  Tony Gonzalez (TE) (5 Seasons) (4 Pro Bowls)  Wow, quite the difference here. Through Cam's career his top option was Greg Olsen, who was one of the best tight ends of his generation and a real difference maker in an offense reliant on their quarterback making plays outside of structure. Newton post Steve Smith Sr was saddled with a revolving door of Chicken McNobodies at the receiver position and the offense had to be funneled through the tight end and running attack as Jericho Cotchery, Corey Brown, Jason Avant, Kelvin Benjamin, etc was not getting the job done. Ryan on the other hand was consistently surrounded with top level offensive weapons, including one of the best receivers and tight ends in the history of the game, thanks in part to an aggressive general manager who wanted to ensure they could maximize the arm talent of their franchise quarterback.  How about protection?  Cam Newton top offensive lineman: Jordan Gross (3 Seasons) (1 Pro Bowl)  Ryan Kalil (8 Seasons) (2 Pro Bowls) Andrew Norwell (4 Seasons)  Trai Turner (6 Seasons) (5 Pro Bowls) Matt Ryan top offensive lineman:  Jake Matthews (8 Seasons) (1 Pro Bowl)  Alex Mack (5 Seasons) (3 Pro Bowls)  Andy Levitre (3 Seasons)  Todd McLure (5 Seasons)  While Matt Ryan certainly had more consistency and high level talent on his offensive line, one could argue they had similar protection through the bulk of their career. Though one has to acknowledge some of the absolute dog water lineman that were trot out to protect Newton at his tackle spots post Jordan Gross retirement. Byron Bell, Mike Remmers, Matt Kalil, Chris Clark, Amini Silatolu, Nate Chandler, etc were all a collective pile of garbage save for two seasons from Remmers and a few splashes of brilliance from Michael Oher, Daryl Williams, and early career Taylor Moton.  Defense should be fairly simple.  Cam Newton defense average rank:  17th/32 Matt Ryan defense average rank:  18th/32  Honestly I was a bit surprised by this, I had thought Cam consistently had the better defenses, but when you look at the average it's shockingly close. While Newton did have the higher peaks of defense, Atlanta placed higher more consistently and only really faltered towards the end of Ryan's career. Both these players had on and off again defenses to rely on.  So what does all this mean?  1. I am bored at work  2. Cam Newton has the better body of work given the talent around him  While I am not sure either is necessarily a lock to get a gold jacket, it's undeniable that Newton carried his franchise on his back for the better part of his career and changed how quarterbacks are viewed as a whole. Newton became the blueprint for a new breed of signal caller, and Ryan is the standard that is set for pocket quarterbacks in the modern league. Both players deserve their kudos for what they did for their franchises and how they morphed their team's identity, but Newton I think was clearly the better of the NFC South quarterbacks, especially if he had remained as healthy as Ryan did.

      100% agree, trading him would be the best possible scenario. It allows for a clean start at QB and you get something back.
