I mean yeah, you got to be a pretty big Matt Rhule homer to not think he is most likely to go. 

Nah. You just have to think of David Tepper, look at what he did in January, and listen to what he said in April.

My money is on him resigning around thanksgiving to take a college job. 
 

McAdoo will be named intern HC and the panthers will go on a meaningless winning streak to knock themselves out of a top10 pick and show Tepper enough to make McAdoo the new permanent HC. Pretty much worst case scenario if Rhule is gone 

then the cycle will start over again in two years.

That same guy who said Marty Hurney was one of the best talent evaluators in the NFL?

Well that actually kinda supports what I'm saying: he'll keep Rhule for as long as he likes, regardless of speculation by pundits and the like.

Well, until the football gods demand a sacrifice.  That’s the game.  

so the question is….what body would appease the football gods if this upcoming year is bad?  

Tepper has a growing disgruntled fan base he is dealing with.  The football gods would have demanded more than a Joe Brady last year if the Cam card hasn’t been played.

Darnold is the ready-made sacrificial offering. It may not fully appease the fans, summate to the numbers used to set the betting line of Vegas prognosticators, or jibe with media narratives, but Tepper's opinion is ultimately the only one that matters. The rest is just hype.

Tepper fired Marty right at a year after that compliment was made.

Saying that supports the idea that he'll keep Matt Rhule longer is...a stretch.

Don’t think sacrificing Sam moves the needle much at all at this stage.  

Tepper is in the game to make money.  At some point you can only piss fans off for so many years before it impacts your ability to maximize your dollars you rake in.  

The booing stadium IMO clearly impacted the front office last year.  Tepper and Rhule.   Think it will again this year if the boos come.  Sam won’t be enough.  There is no Cam card to play to distract.  Tough ask for Corral.   Cam coming back was its own weirdly unique thing.  Even Corral showing some moments won’t duplicate a Cam type distraction IMO. 

Rhule is going to have to win some games IMO.  Not sure it matters how.  As long as he does.

      Time to Sign David Njoku

      Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.

      I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.

      Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
