The writing was on the wall for him to be let go this season. I am slightly surprised it was this early into the season.

I hope Rhule finds success at his next stop. I think he will.

Why? His hubris is what led to this mess. Him coming in thinking the Panthers were just a Matt Rhule away from the Super Bowl, tossing aside the franchises best ever QB, causing the franchises best ever defensive player to retire, constantly making win-now moves thinking he was the guy to turn Teddy Bridgewater, Sam Darnold, etc. into franchise guys. His constant and dreadful misevaluation of the roster, fueled by his arrogance thinking he was just going to come in with all his college yes men and be the next Belichik, has set us back further than when he arrived. He could have come in, tried his hardest, and just been bad, but humble enough to bring in NFL coaches, respect team leaders, and not fug our future. But he was worse than that. You can’t even look to him and say he’s some high character pillar of the community like Rivera. Rhule will not be missed anywhere.

Maybe our idiotic owner has learned more about hiring a head coach this time around. No more 7 year deals please. Just because he made the right move finally doesn’t mean he should be congratulated. It should have happened at the end of last season. He’s now wasted another year and the team has wasted more money on another useless QB who isn’t even a good stopgap. This next hire is extremely important to determining if Tepper is a complete trash owner or not. The results so far are not good. 

Keep in mind, people seem to forget that Hurney was still GM be also played a sizeable part in Rhule being here.

    • Brandt's comment about Wharton was from his KC perspective when Wharton was a UDFA rookie.   "it goes back to the anecdote that Brandt Tillis had when he was in Kansas City. And it would be so easy to just cut Turk Wharton in 2020 when he was an undrafted rookie from a division two college in Missouri. It would been so easy to cut him because then he would have cleared waivers easily. No one knew this guy. They didn't have any joint practices, didn't have a preseason. Would have been so easy to cut him and bring him back on the practice squad and let him continue to build from there. And Brandt essentially said, "No, he's got to make the 53man roster if we're going to have any sort sense of credibility with this team."    
    • Plenty of us were scratching our heads about that signing at the time. Especially with our 3-4 defense. Wharton is kind of a one trick pony situational five tech DT. He doesn't have the beef to hold up against the run and he doesn't have the juice to shift outside. He's basically a situational pass rusher DT. If we paid him $40M+ and he can't start for a historically inept defense then holy poo...
    • Agreed.  300 and 2 or 3 total in Jacksonville in a winning effort would sure be a nice start.
