Come on, man, he was never on drugs. The media obviously has gone way overboard with the alcohol stuff also. Panthers fans don't need to be the source of disinformation (even in jest). It's in poor taste at best.

You are lecturing the Huddle lowest common denominator. Waste of effort.

yeah, I mean there is a poster going around claiming Matt Rhule inherited a horrible situation because he lost all these leaders and former greats when got here.  However.... 

what that poster continues to ignore is Matt Rhule straight up cut them all.  He inhertied leadership and he choose to send them all packing (Luke being the lone exception.  And Luke was probably just too smart to sacrifice his body for the clown show). 

Rhule inherited Cam - Rhule cut him

Rhule inherited Olsen - Rhule cut him

Rhule inherited Reid - Rhule cut him. 

If you're referring to me.  The discussion was whether RR and Rhule walked into  comparable situations.  They didn't.

Olsen, Cam and Reid were approaching the end of their careers when Rhule came here.  Cam and Olsen had barely played in 2 years and Reid's production had dropped off.  Meanwhile,  Steve Smith, Jordan Gross,Ryan Kahlil, Deangelo Williams, Johnathon Stewart, Ted Davis, Charles Johnson, and the #1 draft pick, Cam Newton, all had plenty left in the tank.

I mean, winning a single game with The Golden Calf of Bristol as your QB IMO is a pretty big accomplishment. 

I would give him high praise if The Golden Calf of Bristol was forced on him.   The fact he wanted The Golden Calf of Bristol is the headscratcher.  

Lol fair point.  If I remember correctly that defense carried them through most of their wins with him...

He only took 2018 off. He was trying to land OC jobs again starting in 2019. That’s 3 straight years of people not wanting him.  

So you preferred a different OC this time?  Who?

Or you just going to rag on the new one before there's a single offensive snap?

Unless Sam Darnold goes out there and has done a complete 180° in terms of his play on the field there’s no reason for them Panthers not to go with Matt Corral.

They obviously drafted him for a reason and it makes sense if the Panthers don't think they are quite playoff ready to see what they have in Corral before next years draft.

I hope what their saying is true and the best player will win  the position.    I hope Corral tears it up in camp.  If its close, Sam's going to start.

Ben McAdoo is not my ideal OC hire.   Nor was it anyone's given he had been striking out the past 3 seasons looking to be an OC. 

But realistically, we weren't going to have great options to entertain given where we currently find the Carolina Panthers.  I accept that part.

I still think The Golden Calf of Bristol could of been a great football player.  Just not a QB.  If he was willing and Skip Bayless and the media would just of allowed him to be roleplayer.

What were we, like 6-10 Cam's first season? After his first game, no one needed to tell anyone that we had a franchise QB, and no one will have to tell us after Corral's first game either. Listen to what I'm saying. 

Yup.  I felt it first game.  422 yards, 3TDs.  Oh yeah.

The only thing that will get me "excited" about Matt Corral is winning football games.  Chris Simms praise means nothing.  

This is true.  Didn't he like Darnold, and our trade for him?  I forget.

I still like anyone saying positive stuff about our QB.

      2026 World Cup Thread

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.

      LWOS on the FO's error--my word--on X...traits, timelines, Brazzell, & indications of improvement.

      Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly.

      Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
