Biggest blunders of the NFL season

The Athletic chronicled this year's biggest NFL booboos, and I doubt the inclusion of this particular move will shock anyone...

Panthers sticking with Matt Rhule

Despite poor decisions on quarterback acquisitions and 23 losses in his first two seasons, Matt Rhule earned the vote of confidence entering Year 3. However, few — if any — around the league believed Panthers owner David Tepper was truly sold on Rhule.

The suspicions were justified when Rhule was fired after a 1-4 start. Then the Panthers traded Christian McCaffrey to San Francisco, signaling the start of a rebuild that could have commenced this past offseason had Tepper hit the reset button then.

Interim coach Steve Wilks now finds himself in a virtually impossible situation. And with the team spiraling further, he just fired two of Rhule’s former assistants, after two others got the axe in October when Rhule was dismissed.

Tepper did have to balance the patience dilema, and got him some NFL guys. Rhule just seemed to revert back to his horrible instincts as soon as football started, after spending all offseason convincing our handful of super optimists on here that he had turned the corner with a few cheesy press conferences.
