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.

      Carolina Still Not Respected

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?

      I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
