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.
