2 things:  Rhule would have been given a longer leash with Jones and I think he probably would have won some more games with jones.  Mac isnt terrible per se, just limited

His limitedness does not match well with Rhule's issues and limitedness. I don't think we would have won many more games last year or this year, Mac would have been Carr'ed more than likely. I used serviceable because he isn't terrible just terribly limited. 

The way Rhule ran this team and how QBs always played their worst were a kiss of death. I think Jones would have looked like 2022 Jones and not 2021 Jones under Rhule. Jones needs to go somewhere incredibly friendly and with a really good D. Might be good enough to give the 49ers another Jimmy G effect with Lance busting for them.

their offense has only had 2 starters miss major time... 

1. Trey Lance
2. Elijah Mitchel

Now if you want to go a short period of time...

1. Trent Williams 

 

You are confusing their defense with their offense. The defense has been decimated with injuries but yet are still top 10 in the NFL. 

kittle

 

And losing Lance was huge.  They built the offense around him and he took all of the snaps in preseason as the starter

They won all of their games with Jimmy G at QB  went 1-1 with Kittle out (first two games of the year). Your comment of their offense being decimated is a bit off.

 

If Kyle was our coach and we had the one of the worst scoring offenses in the league, would you find that acceptable as a fan? Considering your coach has only had 2 winning seasons out of 6 seasons....

They didnt lose those... lol. Kittle was back week 3, a game after the 9ers put  27 points on the board with Jimmy G at QB . That was their best scoring game of the year. Trent Willliams has missed the last 2.5 games. 

 

All of those players have not missed a single game together. You are cherry picking.

They are a top 4ish team now in the AFC.  They are doing something right

i know, but it doesn't make sense. are they that good or does everyone else suck so bad that they can do whatever they want and it still works?

Their defense is really really good.  As is their running game.  Bill B has gone old school the past few weeks.

i just looked and they aren't ranked all that high. they are 3-3. they've won 2 in a row, but still kind of far down and about middle of the pack in power rankings. NFL has them ranked 10th in the AFC. both the bills and the jets have won more games and they lost to the dolphins so they are sitting last in their division. that's just weird.

i think we're so used to them being a powerhouse no matter what that we might haven't realized that they aren't anymore.

Said it elsewhere: Justin Fields isn't doing CJ Stroud any favors.

Nope. I know it’s silly to hold someone’s college as a knock against them but I cannot understate how insanely talented Ohio State’s receivers are on a year to year basis. Those WR’s are elite & destroy their competition in that conference. They get beyond wide open & the QB just has to get it there. Kudos to Stroud for making the throw to the open man - but those windows shrink so much in the NFL and I truly believe that it’s a massive shock to those QBs when they get to the league. That’s why I didn’t like Fields coming out, he can’t see or read what’s in front of him. The Northwestern game where he struggled, they put NFL concepts on that tape and he stunk it up.

Against 2 of the worst defenses against the run too (Browns Lions)

The thing about "scouting helmets" is there's typically a reason why it happens.

Take Florida State DEs for example. Their system has tended to use undersized "tweener" types who ended up drafted by 4-3 teams and looking bad in that role.

Likewise, some schools use a very limited route tree for their wide receivers (actually kinda common these days). As a result, you wind up with super productive college guys who can't understand their pro level assignments.

Basically, sometimes there's a reason for those reputations.

You have to look deeper.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can always count on yout to put things so delicately lol. I'm still not sold on the fact that Tepper will make them keep him if they don't see him as a long term answer.

      holy poo... this thread inspired me to keep trying to guess passwords to various alts I've created over the years and I finally got in! I pretty much accepted my fate as a lurker for the last several months because I could not remember my password. I didn't realize that new users couldn't join either, that explains things. I have been around for years under several different monikers, through the good and bad. I too always find myself coming back here even with all of the new social media options for Panther fan engagement. It's simply nostalgic.   I do get extremely annoyed with the same 5-10 posters shitting on Bryce and complaining about everything. It's unfortunate that half of them are mods and that nobody new can join because now I pretty much just come on here and see Bryce / Panther slander. There is barely any positivity to be had. We all watch this team and hang on this forum for entertainment purposes only. We have no control or say in anything. I used to be such a crazy ass fan that would argue with strangers about Cam newton on the internet and at games. Now, as a father of 3, a business owner and someone with way gnarlier life problems - I like to watch football and talk about football as an escape. Not to bitch more. I really like the direction of the team and will root anyone in a Panthers jersey. I live down the street from the Rams practice facility, Matthew Stafford is currently coaching his daughters flag football team in the same program I coach my sons. I have two highly ranked Rams staff members sons on my team. The way we beat them and had them on the ropes in the playoffs has me feeling amazing, and you would think we have the next great thing in Bryce with the way they all speak of him. I'm gonna ride that high and be a delusional fan, I hope that huddle can stick around or get fixed and perhaps I will get back to posting more now that I can log in again. I will do my best to not get banned. Keep Pounding!

      Well, if they know Tepper wants to keep Bryce there is an an implied safety net there in case he fails. A possibility that he will be empathetic and •maybe• not fire them.  If they go against that and bring in someone else and that fails they are in a much worse spot.  IMO.  And another factor may be that after all those years of instability and musical chairs pre Bryce there will likely be a feeling of security in knowing what they have.   Kind of like settling just to keep from going through the process all over again.     IOW I think he really needs to fug up bad to lose his job and change our course.
