Matt Rhule has still not learned how to win close games.

All other BS aside the biggest moment was when we went play it safe and kicked a FG leaving the browns plenty of time. That was Rivera year one and two type stuff. It's the type stuff you get when a coach can't get over his ego and take calculated risks that win games. It's also why unless we extend Rhule for another 7 years we won't be a winning team. Maybe not even then.

I didnt have too much of a problem with choosing to run. It was the run calls I have issue with. Yeah there was a snap fumble, but two other runs up the middle isnt the answer. At least be a little more creative with the run calls.

Run calls don't win games. It was up the middle so the kicker had a better shot. They never intended to try a pass.

not when you call it as its happening in current sight. 

If we play aggressive and throw a pick... we are singing an entirely different tune. There just isnt a "right" call in those situations. If the refs dont call that RTP or call the IG... then we potentially are talking about a win.

There is a right mindset though and its play to win the game. Could also fumble the ball on a run, get a holding penalty, and any other number of playing scared things that could happen. Instead we played scared and lost....again

really don't care what Cam Newton said he's not coming back and I'm not looking back and playing make believe about a time that doesn't exist and will never exist anymore

The only thing not running in that situation would have done is leave Cleveland with timeouts to use as they drove further down the field for a much easier game winning FG attempt. Your all’s unwillingness to admit that the Panthers would have won with this strategy but for the two missed calls shows you just want to blame Rhule for everything.

When you’re 10-24 then there’s really nowhere else for the blame to fall.

You can’t blame one loss on a previous two year history when that one loss showed things that weren’t shown during those two years, like halftime adjustments and a team that didn’t roll over and quit when the teams from the past two years would have.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
