He really does look a lot better. He looked like poo last year. Honestly, I was a bit concerned for him. I don't think he's the right guy to be coaching the Panthers but I don't wish him any ill.

 

I remember in the offseason it was said he had a drinking problem bc of his weight and the fact that he was having fun on the dance floor....  the conclusions we jump to.....

Yeah, kinda sad.  Wish him the best.  He is our coach and I hope he goes on to a HOF coaching career.

Seriously doubt anybody would give a sh-t if Rhule looked like Andy Reid as long as he also coached like him.

I agree.  But in all fairness, Bill B had a losing record 4 out of his first 5 years. Reid only had 5 wins his first season and a handful of 4 or 5 win seasons in his career.

Rhule has only 2 years under his belt, has had no QB, and inherited one of the worst NFL rosters in history.  If he flounders this season, then he’s probably done.  But I’m hoping this is the year he turns around.

He was on either pregabalin, gabapentin, or MAYBE oxcarb/carbamazepine. 
 

that’s uh not a convincing excuse for someone at his age

Weight gain is a common side effect of shingles. If he wants to blame the medication, whatever. Either way he seems to have addressed some things and looks a lot better for it. Good for him.

      No, I'm starved for contention. If you can't see that and keep wanting to turn things like this back around on T-Mac, then you're just either being purposefully obtuse, or is a fan who is happy having 5-6 win seasons just because we're so used to the 3-4 win seasons and you like "just being better"

      You mean the guy who took over a franchise that hadn't had a losing season in the previous 4 seasons... who proceeded to get his team into the playoffs in 3 of his first 4 seasons, only to win 2 games in said playoffs, to then go on to having a 54-74 career record and never won another playoff game after those first two? Who then after being fired from that job, took over a team that was 30-18 in the 3 seasons before he got the job, got into the playoffs that first season, lost their first postseasons game, and then went on to have a 6-26 record over the next 2 seasons? You're literally proving my point by bringing up someone who's claim to fame is that quote. If you just play to win the game, you're never going to be a successful franchise.  You need to play to win the game while ALSO working to make your players better.  Having the former without the latter is a picture perfect recipe to become a stagnant franchise. That's how you work towards being a winning franchise who can contend in the postseason.  And sure, having a stagnant franchise that makes the playoffs every other season is better than what we currently are, but that's not what I strive for with our Panthers, I want to actually contend for championships in my lifetime.
