Rhule has had 4 former 1st round QB picks behind center and none have been able to win. 

And two Heisman trophy winners.

And three playoff QBs.

And one Super Bowl QB.

And two #1 picks in the draft.

I know, I know, they were all bad or broken down. But he, and management, said, "Hell, let's ride with them. We can make it work."

Oh and PJ Walker.

Imagine if Rhule mentioned Ben McAdoo as his OC when interviewing for HC jobs in the first place. Would have been laughed out of the room. 

Oh, I would not bet on that.  He was being interviewed by a fellow BS artist (Hurney) and pitching to an owner who has no idea how an NFL team actually operates.  I'm sure he would have ginned up some "analytics" to say that the odor or horse manure was actually roses, and Tepper would have bought it.

FWIW, Bridgewater's 56.8 is the highest QBR the Panthers have had since 2015.

another example of this stat's flaws. Cam in 2017 was so much better than Teddy 2020. But yeah Baker sucks in every metric

Teddy was better than that elsewhere. Mayfield was far better than that, just last year, with upwards of six different injuries, unable to scramble, and with 4th string tackles blocking his blindside. Darnold was criminally developed with the Jets, so not sure he can play better than that, but the line in '21 and Rhule sure didn't develop him further.

If you all think it's QB and not system, scheme, and coaching, I don't know what to tell you but to go back and rewatch the game film.

The most telling take from this is that Matt Rhule is the common link. 

It's a pattern, clearly. 

Expecting players to overcome bad coaching is something you just don't see much of in the NFL, and at least, should not expect as a prerequisite for actually winning games, because you won't win many.

I've been saying it...  every single one that has come here with any established history has the worst year of their careers.  BY A LOT.  It simply is amazing that he is still employed because by all observable metrics he has not shown one single encouraging sign.  He has gotten worse and offensively, we have gotten worse every year.

at some point you've got to figure it's not the QBs. 

can't blame it on the OC, either. or really the GM.

somehow it falls down to the one common denominator that has been here the longest.

    • Unless the league decides to rollback the rule book 30 years, that player at QB isn't winning any Super Bowls.  QB has to elevate those around him.  QBs that are carried by the team are always exposed in the playoffs. Closest thing to an average QB that has won the SB recently is Jalen Hurts.  But he's so unique with his legs and the unstoppable tush push that I don't think it's easy to compare him to anyone.  Certainly not someone who is subbed out for QB sneaks.
    • You absolutely can have hope. You can’t convert people though; making advocacy posts are kind of … not reading the room.   I had a small hope that he would be able to at least manage some games and that they could make it work in some kind of no fun to watch fashion.  But honestly I had 100% determined he was not NFL starter material, and I had conviction. So to root for him to marginally succeed goes against the best interest of the Panthers long term, according to my beliefs. I wanted him gone the minute he got here if I am honest.It was up to him to prove otherwise.  He has rarely shown me anything to think I was wrong on his ceiling.  He did show me some courage last year, standing in the pocket and stepping into his throw in the face of pressure - but that has gone somewhere. He made some nice throws last year in places too, but they invested in him on the level of the Atlanta game should be his norm. Good luck seeing that again on Sunday. Still, he did it once, so technically it could happen again. 
    • Damn that was a longer post than I intended, Maybe I should have started a new thread.
