Just wait cuz Rhule is really awesome in year three

That has basically been the belief since we hired Rhule. Everyone talked about how he turned college teams around and year three was when he started getting results. 
 

Well as of right now those results aren’t very good. If it’s possible we’re actually going bass-ackwards and getting worse and I really don’t believe Tepper will fire him until we’re mathematically eliminated.

This 'Year 3 jump' stuff was always crap anyway, as his teams always tracked whatever they did from year 1 to year 2 and continued into year 3. He was never anywhere long enough to truly establish that he could maintain a program and never beat anyone ranked/that mattered... the hiring has always been ahead-scratcher to anyone with common sense regardless of if he was a media darling/hot new name/whatever. 

Only 2 games into the season so there's always time for a miraculous turnaround, but I think we all know what the odds of that are.

I remember someone who had an inside connection saying Tepper genuinely believed it could happen.

It was pointed out to a lot of the people defending this idea that in the college scenarios, there was actually a big jump between year one and year two. That of course didn't occur with the Panthers.

It was just a jump to the left...

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
