Games won this season will be in spite of the coaching staff

Baker struggled in the first half, but given how long he’s been on the team and how little chances he had to play in the preseason, that was to be expected. Second half, besides a few plays, he looked great and I think he will only get better as the season progresses.

Now, onto the coaching staff - 

WTF are they doing. Rhule is so far out of his league, eventually the face he makes on the sideline of pure confusion is going to become permanent. Team was completely unprepared. OL looked like poo (don’t you think you should have let the starters play together A LOT more during the preseason you dumbass?). DL got beat up and pushed around. Everyone looked like they forgot how to tackle, but were trying to play shoulder check with everyone. 

This all comes down to coaching. Rhule, Snow, the whole group of them are exactly who they were last year which is a group of under qualified, overpaid, used car salesmen. Always outmatched, outcoached, and playing responsive football instead of dictating any game with planned strategy.

Get all the way down there and settle for a FG? I get that is usually the right move, but its also a pussy move in that situation. There is zero “go for the kill” behind this regime and even if there is, I don’t think he would know how to articulate it to the rest of the team. 

TLDR - Love me some Baker, he’s going to get better. I want nothing more than Rhule and co to be fired ASAP.

Yeah for McAdoos huge play calling sheet that was insanely vanilla boring obvious poo. Snows D looks like Snows D without Reddick, Rhule still sucks at time outs and picking starters, pretty much the extent of it

It was like McAdoo was simply picking plays blindly from his playbook and not considering our strengths vs their weaknesses. Icky was being given the arguably best DE in the league in his first ever game and we did nothing about it.

Same with Snow sticking to his ineffective college odd-formations when Al you need to do against these guys is stack the box. We are set to get run over this year.

 Coaching was sooooo bad today it’s hard to fathom. And it’s also on them for having Elflein-Baker so poorly connected. It’s like they took no reps together.  And I didn’t even see them practicing after those snaffoos on the sideline.

Simple coaching 101. This is sub Rivera at his worst. Easily the worst coaching we’ve ever had. Seifert was just getting old but at least had decent assistants.

....thought they should have had Foreman in there helping most plays with cmc in the slot or backfield with him.... our TE's are as useless as teets on a boar pig....

WTF do you all actually want? Last season, the team opened the season (and a few games) doing good things only to collapse in the second half of season and the games. All off-season you all bitched about “No adjustments. No adjustments.”

This coaching staff and team made adjustments in the second half today, and but for two obviously blown calls by the refs, the Panthers are 1-0 right now. 

Most of the fans here will never be happy. Y’all just want to bitch and moan from your Lazy Boy hoping this team fails so you can be right about Rhule.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      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.
