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.

      Surprise! Kon looks really bad!

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      Same, bro.  Yeah, it just feels it has run its course and I don’t know that we’ll ever get more value.  Plus, with the new ownership, this draft has been super encouraging, so dare I believe maybe this FO can get something to really put us over the top in return for Melo.  I’ll still be a fan of his game and try to keep up with him if we move on, but yeah, I feel it’s time to turn the page. (and side note: I felt so happy after their rookie years because I told everybody I wanted Melo and didn’t trust Ant.  And Melo clearly looked like the better player early…  I thought Ant would bust because all that stuff he said about not loving the game and just his resume to that point…  but damn, if we could go back in time.🤣🤣🤣. I love Ant’s game and at times, when he gets in the zone, he is THE BEST player in the league in my opinion.)

      Appreciate that, bro!  And I could definitely see that with Cam.  Even though he’s a little younger than me, he is also someone I admire and feel a kinship with for a lot of various reasons. Funny enough, a few years after that encounter with Steve, I went to Charlotte with one of my friends whose brothers owned a moving company at the time.  He dropped me off uptown and went to work the day with them where I would wait until he got done and then we were gonna go to the Bobcats game that night.  So I walk all through that area for hours.  After awhile, I walk back towards the arena and sit in a bench on the backside of the arena, where the practice court and player’s entrance was.  As I’m sitting there, I look up and almost think I’m seeing things - I squint and blink my eyes a couple times just to be sure, and yes…  it’s one of my childhood heroes, Muggsy Bogues walking across the crosswalk and into the arena.  I think he was coaching the Sting then, iirc.  Part of me wanted to just say, “Hey!  Muggsy!  Thank you for the inspiration and memories!  You were one of my favorite players as a kid!”  But, I just watched him walk by and into the arena and thought, “that was cool!”  I also so Miguel Cotto a couple years back while in Orlando and told my kids who it was but didn’t say anything to him.  I think somewhere in my subconscious, that encounter with Steve really made me feel like the gamble on finding out if they’re receptive to interaction just isn’t worth finding out.  At the end of the day, no matter if they’re receptive inspired us or were a hero, unless they initiate it, I likely never will…  because again, they’re humans just like us.  Not anymore unique or special, they just have a highly visible and very public job that we get to watch and in some ways participate.  So, I just appreciate it for what it is.

      Young up for Player of the Week

      By frankw · Posted

      I'm pleasantly surprised they gave it to Bryce Young over Josh Allen. Finally we're getting some respect. Now I'm just hoping the team follows this up accordingly and doesn't lay another egg.
