Everyone expecting Rhule to be fired imminently needs to chill because they're setting themselves up for disappointment. He'll almost certainly be fired late in the season like Ron was. There's nothing to gain by firing him right now unless you're wanting to give an assistant a legit trial run to prove he's the guy for the future. Just not seeing that. This staff needs gutting.

I wouldn’t mind keeping a few guys like Wilkes around. He and McDermott appeared to be the masterminds of our elite defense for several years prior to their respective departures.

 

Blow the rest of it to pieces.

We need to hire a new coach and let him build his own staff. If that means keeping some guys, fine. If it means firing everyone, that's fine too.

Wilks isn't the right guy for this secondary though. We built a press man secondary and we have an off zone secondary coach. It's just a bad fit. Same is true on offense. Our personnel does not fit McAdoo's offense. Everything is just a poor fit of Rhule simply trying to hire guys with legit NFL experience for the sake of having NFL experience on his staff.

It doesn’t say Rhule isn’t on the hot seat. Just gives the impression that if Rhule is fired it won’t be until we are eliminated from the playoffs or the end of the season. 
He is definitely on the hot seat. 

It also gives the impression he really has to screw up to lose his job. Basically tepper is saying give me something! Anything! I wouldn't be surprised if he keeps him because of injuries at this point. His narcissistic ego will just not admit he fugged up.

Now that you mention it, I'd love to see what hometown Wilks could do. He got the short end in AZ imo.

Get Rhule and Snow up outta here asap. Fans would feel like the owner isn't settling for mediocre...

      Great point.    I would lke to add that there is another QB on the roster who was terrible over the middle--Kenny Pickett.

      I don't think this is the year for Carolina, unfortunately.  I think they will have to make a decision on the QB position-all we know is that Bryce has year 5, but a long term deal has not been signed--yet--and they would be smart to take a "wait and see" approach.  I have not kept up, and I see a path to upside for Bryce, but I do not think we have aggressively pursued a QB when our QB was mediocre to worse than mediocre.  yes, his numbers are improving--but he has adapted by eliminating what he does poorly and not improving on what he does poorly.  Just my take and I have no data to support this view.   Basically, we go as Bryce goes, so the approach is not to bring in a QB to have him compete until we find one, but it is to make Bryce as good as he can be--is that good enough? Season ticket holders buy the hope of winning rings, not winning 8 games. Last year, Bryce had a resurgence.  Take away TMac and Rico Dowdle.  How good was he?  I still have hope.  Not a hater of plan A, but a hater because we have no plan B.

      Yeah man, I've been here for a very very long time. Couldn't even begin to tell you what year. Maybe 2004 or 5? I've never really been super active, just enjoy reading everyone's opinions and discussions. I'll chime in from time to time. I have had a few different accounts over the years. It's always been a fun place for me to check in on my favorite team. Hopefully we can keep the place running for a long while still. I also would like to recommend bringing back the Lovely Ladies page!
