Force Rhule? Rhule declared to everyone he could win with Darnold by trading high draft picks and then signing his option before he even took a snap. If he isn’t ever held accountable for those decisions how long with this Teddy/Sam/Baker circus last? 

Granting Rhule his wish and then having him follow through is force?

Yep

Telling a coach/FO he can’t move on from a mistake when there is such a cheap solution in what we did with Mayfield would be a dumb ass move by the owner. Make the whole team and fans suffer from a stupid mistake vs a 5th and 5 million to help correct it. That is a form of tanking. If you acquire a player and they don’t work out having an overbearing owner demand they still start is a recipe for disaster. It’s just angry fans wanting us to get the top pick to acquire Stroud (aka tanking).

I did not want this trade.  But if I'd known the price I'd have been all for it as a "why not?" situation.

Seems the ones upset about it are worried about purgatory.  In other words, if it isn't the ideal solution, they'd rather have it be bad enough to get a new coach and better draft pick to use on another rookie QB.

If this doesn't work, I still don't want us to be bad.  I want us to win enough games that next year's Brady/Watson/Wilson thinks: "This team is just a QB away.  I'd be willing to go there."

Nobody is saying that.   It’s a false narrative from the sunshine club.  We are saying rhule should be forced to deal with his choices he made.   Stop fuging around and throwing poo against the wall.   You gave up a poo ton for Sam now make it work.  You gave up more assets for corral go make it work.  Baker isn’t going to to jack poo on a one year deal.   But I am sure you guys will keep making excuses when this blows up in our face.  

So you want the team to be bad to teach someone a lesson?  Sounds like a good fan.  These aren't children.  Also, I dont understand the fans who are 100% certain that someone doesnt get better at their new job with experience.

The fact that he is referring to fans who liked how cheap this trade was as "the sunshine club" should tell you all you need to know about this person.

I love the Panthers, but we dont have the talent on our roster for that. We really need to start nailing our draft picks instead of spending them on has been QBs. 

We have added Chinn since Rhule has been the coach and a bunch of JAGs.

I do agree the price was right. But it’s not one mistake. I feel giving a coach making the wrong moves more ammo at the detriment of the team to be the dumbass move here personally, when the obvious one is to move on from said coach. And the team an fans suffer all the same. It’s not demanding they start, it’s demanding results with the resources given and recognizing it wouldn’t be a bright idea to allow someone to use more to make more mistakes.

Yes the price was low but was Watson’s? I mean let’s be real, Teddy, Sam, Watson…we’re really idiotic moves. We really are just throwing poo against the wall for year 5 now. Is tanking one year REALLY considered making everyone suffer competitively speaking? I say no.

But as I said price was right. I don’t hate the move I just hate we are always looking to make these moves year after year after year.

    • My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again. 
    • Ok LT and Petersen are a cut above everyone else to me cmc and Faulk are interchangeable on this list.  though Faulk was better career wise
    • Maybe faked was too strong of a word.  "Milked" may be the better way to call it.
