I think Matt Rhule gets one more game

This was a match between two not very good teams, a first year coach and someone who looks like it's his first year coaching, two defenses that looked better than they actually are playing against bad offenses built around great runningbacks that they don't use very well. 

Overall just a bad game between bad teams who are going to be picking in the top 10 next year and the worst managed team lost.

It was hard watching all the way to the end, but I did and I can't say it was time well spent.

Point is, it really isn't going to get any easier for us. This was probably the most winnable game outside of maybe the falcons this year, and Rhule didn't have this team ready to go and couldn't manage a win against a bad team led by a first year coach.

We've seen what he can't do....win. I think we've seen enough. 

Problem is tepper will keep letting Rhule have his way. I just don't see the axe falling any time soon.

These loses aren't because it was a great battle and we played well.  We lost because we look like bunch of guys playing football on a Sunday morning.  There is nothing going right and even with the addition of solid NFL coaches nothing is changing.  This points that Rhule is NOT listening to those around him. 

Can him now, put McAdoo in charge and let him use the next 15 games as an OJT interview.

I'm honestly hoping for a L next week. If we win then it only gives Tepper hope that Rhule might turn it around. Please don't delay the inevitable. 

looks like 0-7 incoming. Maybe beat the falcons once. 1-17 totally realistic

I seriously doubt he'll be fired that quickly. That would be Tepper outright admitting that everyone was right when they said Rhule should be fired at the end of last season. He doesn't have the humility to do that. I expect Rhule to get fired coming down the final stretch like Ron was.

Of next season, yes.  By then the streak will be around 40.

The rose tinted glasses are off and smashed. And someone pissed on the shards. 

I've given Rhule every benefit of every possible doubt because I so wanted this team to be successful. This should not only have been a W. This should have been a blowout. To be 0-2 in the softest part of our schedule is inexcusable. 

I'm on the band wagon. Fire Rhule. If we win a game it will be in spite of him not because of him.

It's maddening that were in week 2 and I've already completely lost hope for the season. And I'm as blindly optimistic as they come. You've got to be a special kind of awful to make me start thinking about how we're going to rebuild in the off-season in week 2. And you did it, Rhule. Congrats on achieving the impossible.

I’m not sure he should. This week something has to change. Snow or rhule. One has to go. Preference snow.

I don’t understand the defensive philosophy for the play calls after the Panthers went up by a touchdown. It seemed like the team went in to prevent as if they were up by multiple touchdowns. They should’ve maintained the pressure that they were showing before that touchdown.

If he's canned in season there's no guarantee it gets any better.  All the staff is made up of failed coaches at this level.  Spare me the yeah buts.

This is true. There's a reason the NFL level coaches were available for Rhule to hire.I thought this team might win 7-9 games, but it's looking like they won't win 5.

Im going to scope the tape this week to get a good understanding. I think all 22 is released on Tuesday.

    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever… 
    • Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.
    • The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
