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.

      Ex-Panthers great Steve Smith sued under 'homewrecker law' for alleged affair.

      Smitty is a legendary footballer player but this has really damaged his reputation as a person. You don’t cheat on a woman who has been with you through everything and gave you children and especially not with another man’s wife. He doesn’t even have any remorse about it, acting like nothing happened.

      The Athletic's "Undrafted Player to Watch"

      By Panthers Rhule · Posted

      That's a big ass center! Is there any center in the NFL that weighs 320 lbs? Also, we drafted a center last season. Not sure this guy is a center even if he took reps at the senior bowl. Looks like a guard to me unless his build is better suited to a lesser weight. In a zone scheme centers need to be able to move quickly.

      The majority of NFL draft picks don't play all too many snaps lined up directly across from another NFL player, and I don't think many people really realize this. Unless you play a game against one of the 2-4 schools that are putting half their lineup into the NFL each season, most teams who have multiple draft picks, MIGHT only have 2-4 draft picks in any given season. Some skill positions get around 30 players drafted each year, other positions are in the teens to low 20's.  With at least a handful of them coming from non power conference schools too.  So the odds for any WR or CB to get too many games lined up directly against another future draft pick is pretty low. The better odds are that they get lined up against a future NFL player, i.e. a junior or senior WR getting lined up against a freshman or sophomore DB who will get drafted in a couple of years. Then if you take it one step further and look for players who actually play in the NFL and make a difference.   You're basically looking at players drafted in the first 3 rounds of the draft, so a little less than 100 players a year, spread out across all the positions and conferences (which in today's massive conferences, teams have even lower odds of player the teams with more NFL players than ever before).
