I'm sorry, Rhule's unwillingness to replace players that aren't getting it done needs to get him axed more than anything else. 

There was no reason at all that he shouldn't have sat Hubbard immediately after the fumble. Moreover, it was painfully obvious to me that Shi is at a severe disadvantage at the point of contact. He's small. Once he dropped a couple of balls, Rhule should've made sure that TMJ was put into the game to at least see if the big second-rounder could actually do what he was drafted to do. And lastly, it's a damned shame that Marquan McCall didn't get some legit play until Roy went out. Oh, yeah, why not just put Ricci into the game more to see what he can do (though that may be more of a question for the OC).

It's so frustrating to see fug-ups and uninspired coaching.

Yes it's bad especially in the Robbie Anderson area where he can't catch a ball from any QB. Still this Roster has talent it's just not being coached to it's potential. 

Anderson? He hasn't dropped one this year. Out of all the things you mention, you mention Anderson. Come on, dude.

didn't a bunch of nfl execs say rhule's regime was the least meritorious in the league? turdball way to run a team and the chickens are coming home to roost

I wouldn't be surprised. 

Players need to sit down, if nothing else but to get their head together, if they're not getting it done. You can't just be pigheaded and continue to play a player based on preseason when the live bullets start flying. Neither Shi, Roy or Hubbard have done enough in the league to just stick with them when there are other players behind them with potentially more upside. I'm not saying that you don't get them in the game, but you have to let others get an opportunity. Go with the hot hand at least until someone earns their role.

      ESPN showing some love on out draft class!!

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      He makes a good point about Wallace.  In fairness to Wallace it is hard to play your position as freely as you need to when your defensive line is getting pushed around like ragdolls.  One of the greatest attributes a defensive line has is sucking up blocks, freeing up your linebackers.  Our defensive line couldn't suck up a lollipop more or less blocks.  I think Evans, Sanders and Tremble are going to be a really nice TE group.  I can see all three getting time on the field.  If Sanders can improve as a blocker teams won't be so inclined to believe it is a pass play whenever Sanders is on the field.  Ryan Fitzgerald, I think was an awesome pick-up. Hopefully he can fill our kicker void. Luke Kandra many turn out to be our next Norwell.  Everything I have heard about him says he's a beast.  He needs some refinement, but the good news is he's got Hunt and Lewis (arguably the best guard tandem in the league) to learn from.

      Morgan & Canales

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Great teams build through the draft and have several young players that start that are on rookie contracts. It's important to hit on players in rounds 4 thru 7.  These should be future starters and solid depth.  When you hit on most of your picks you free up a lot of cap space for those one- or two-year players to fill spots you are thin at. No GM is going to perfect on all their picks.  You're going to whiff every once in a while.  That was Hurney problem.  He'd nail the first pick but after that it was reach after reach and we couldn't get any depth on this team. I'm excited about Morgan as our GM and hopefully he'll be around a long time.  It will be even better if Canales can continue to grow as a head coach, both in the development of young players and play calling. I remember last season after Young came back in the lineup and started to perform well.  We saw different plays I had only seen other teams use.   If Canales's play design and play calling continue to grow. Morgan and Canales will be linked together for a long time.  It would be nice to see a Coach and GM together for a decade or two. Go Panthers
