I love how the 7 year plan became a 6 year plan, then a 5 year, and now apparently a 4 year plan.  

THERE WAS NO PLAN

Yeah that was when I knew with 100% certainty that Rhule sucked. When he announced that "the process" was just a catchphrase and not an actual plan.

Yeah Tepper got played, he was obviously embarrassed in that presser. At least Nebraska is very far away and usually not in the national media so in a month or so he'll basically vanish off the face of the earth

I blame Tepper for selecting Rhule, instead of letting NFL experts do a head coaching job search evaluation and then taking their advice before hiring one.

Does this guy ever take accountability for anything at all? Reminds me of my to the extreme narcissistic ex wife. Hell, he is just like the ugly troll except a male version. Those two could be a match made in heaven. I dare say 99.999% of the fans here in Carolina can all agree we wish this goof ball never took the job either. Seriously, we all argue about tanking or not, which QB to draft, whether Wilks is a good fit as a permanent coach or not etc etc etc but we im sure all actually AGREE on the fact that Matt Rhule is a prick and an idiot as a coach at the NFL level. He was paid very well to perform very BADLY at his job. He should be thankful he got that cash grab here and then moves directly into a new cash grab. What does he honestly have to be pissed about? What a jerk.

He was taking the job no matter what.  62mil talks loudly.

yep. it was pretty obvious that he'd rather have been with the NYG, but that $62 for 7 years was a pretty good argument. very much a N00b move for a new owner with more cash than any other owner (at the time) and thought that money solved all problems. 

of course what money does is enslave you to the idea that money makes everything right and more money = more smarts. the reality is it makes everyone stupid and the more you have the more boldly stupid you get...but people listen to you because they fall prey to the myth that money = smart. 

but yeah....rhule knew what mattered at the moment. money and freedom to do what he wanted as a coach. hurney and tepper basically came to his door begging and pleading and gave him whatever he wanted.

    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
    • It is a popularity contest.  The selection does have meaning though. It is also 1 of the criteria that is considered for the HOF. The game does not have any significance. The team hasn't been to the playoffs in nearly a decade. That's why they don't get primetime national coverage. To the victors go the spoils.
