Is Rhule the worst coach in the NFL right now

He's usually somewhere around here on media lists

32. Matt Rhule, Panthers (age: 47)

There's a reason he's on everyone's hot list to be first coached fired in 2022. He got a stay of execution based on a change at quarterback and offensive philosophy. But he has some archaic thoughts on how a modern team should operate to be successful with no real plan. And don't get us started on that whole goal line and end zone thing. This is also not surprising given he works for David Tepper.

Interesting. This reads like something skeptics here on the huddle have been saying. But that can't be as I've been told only "haters" here think so little of his coaching prowess and of Tepper's general decision making.

Pretty sure all the rookie coaches but Hackett jumped him in this ranking

27. Matt Rhule – Panthers

Career NFL Record: 10-23

Seasons With Team: Third Season

It’s my job on here to be honest with you. So, in honor of honesty all I’m going to say about Rhule is if there wasn’t five rookie head coaches he would be No. 32 on the list. There is no culture or plan to be found. The only scenario they don’t finish dead last in the NFC is if Baker Mayfield goes on a otherworldly revenge tour. Prayers up for the Carolina faithful.

I've said this before and I will say it again. There are three basic NFL coaches 

Coaches that make you actively better: Few and far between. Belicheck obviously comes to mind first

Coaches that are as good as their talent. AKA won't win you games but won't lose you games with boneheaded decisions. Majority of NFL coaches fall here. Think Jim Caldwell. 

Coaches that actively make you worse. It's hard to get this far and be this bad at coaching so these are almost as rare as the first category. Urban Meyer. And yes Matt fuging Rhule

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
