i refelt something towards the end of last year. Felt like the late 2004 run. So we at 2005 now gonna make the nfc championship. 

What I saw was a reminder of how far this team has fallen, again.  This team needed a staff and roster purge. The only question was when and how far was Tepper willing to go.

I tried to be. Lasted a couple weeks.

I forced enthusiasm and I think a lot did. We were desperate for something good.

I haven't had to force any enthusiasm this year.

Pretty similar to me. I was never a big fan of hiring a college coach but I did what I could to be positive.

My first real "uh oh" moment was when Tepper and Marty were telling the story about his interview. Couldn't help but think it sounded like a couple of senior citizens describing how smart the young man who sold them their new insurance policy sounded. When the info about him having total control hit, that was another "grin and stay positive" moment, but the unease was still there.

Of course, the start of season two made it look like it was actually going to work though. Everybody was excited, until we hit mid-season and realized it all just been an illusion.

The Rhule era (If a three year period can be called that) was a heck of a rollercoaster.

This was a question someone asked in the cut thread. Thought I'd go ahead and post the table here.

2020

1 (7) DT Derrick Brown
2 (38) DE Yetur Gross-Matos
2 (64) S/LB Jeremy Chinn

----------

4 (113) CB Troy Pride Jr
5 (152) S Kenny Robinson
6 (184) DT Bravvion Roy
7 (221) CB Stantley Thomas-Oliver III *

2021

1 (8) CB Jaycee Horn
2 (59) WR Terrace Marshall Jr
3 (70) T Brady Christensen
3 (83) TE Tommy Tremble
4 (126) RB Chuba Hubbard

----------

5 (158) DT Daviyon Nixon
5 (166) CB Keith Taylor
6 (193) G Deonte Brown *
6 (204) WR Shi Smith *
6 (222) LS Thomas Fletcher    
7 (232) DT Phil Hoskins

2022

1 (6) T Ickey Ekwonu
3 (94) QB Matt Corral
6 (189) DE Amaré Barno
6 (199) OL Cade Mays    

----------

4 (120) LB Brandon Smith *    
7 (242) CB Kalon Barnes

...

Still fluid of course, but that's where we stand at the moment. The guys with asterisks could potentially be brought back to the practice squad.

Comparing notes...

Sounds like an upgrade over hurney considering we're still hitting on Round 1 and making some good picks sometimes on round 2 and 3 unlike Hurney which was no picks outside of round 1 ever lol

I think people forget Hurney was good at trades and finding players that didn't pan out with one team but come here and flourish.

I mean pre lockout talk Hurney was a pretty good GM.   Then lockout window hit and I think Jerry was a big part in us going sideways, dumb contracts, etc.

Marty sometimes found a good players. He also all too frequently found mediocre to bad ones.

Ultimately, if you want to accurately judge a GM, you pretty much have to look at the whole roster.

Marty just didn't build winning teams, even when he had cornerstone guys like Newton and Kuechly to build around.

At the least.  Lot of ?s.

If they get lucky in the draft, and find better depth in the next offseason, and most of all stay healthy, I could see them making some noise in the playoffs.  But thats a lot of it's that have to go their way.

Person's post cutdown thoughts...

Rough day for Matt Rhule guys

Rhule had a big say in personnel during his three seasons in Carolina. But Reich and the new staff said goodbye to five of the draft picks from Rhule’s tenure. All were third-day picks: receiver Shi Smith, cornerbacks Keith Taylor and Stantley Thomas-Oliver, linebacker Brandon Smith and offensive lineman Deonte Brown, who was waived at roster cutdowns for the second year in a row.

Brandon Smith was the highest draft pick among Tuesday’s casualties. The Panthers took Smith in the fourth round from Rhule’s Penn State alma mater despite very little college production. Smith, Taylor and Brown were part of an 11-player class in 2021. Six of the seven players chosen on the third day that year are gone, with running back Chuba Hubbard (fourth round) the lone man standing.

Thomas-Oliver’s exit means only three players remain from the all-defensive draft class brought in by Rhule and Marty Hurney in 2020 shortly after Rhule was hired: first-round pick Derrick Brown and second-rounders Yetur Gross-Matos and Chinn.

It’s a little sunny to say all the bad picks were Matt rhule or Matt rhule’s philosophy

fitterer has talked pretty glowingly about his affinity for drafting guys who are high traits and allowing the coaches to develop them, and the most recent draft had more than one guy who fit the mold of big athletic profile who wasn’t a major collegiate producer 

its not really that scandalous to wiff on most of your day 3 picks anyways and if you’re going to be taking a chance you’d rather do it on guys with big athletic profiles

Ideally a more veteran nfl staff can draw out these athletic traits, but they’re definitely not going to stop keying in on athleticism as an extremely important scouting metric

      Possibly playoff affectng news

      By TylerDurden · Posted

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.

      This Bryce Guy (General BY Discussion)

      Should definitely look to trade him in the offseason. Some team will fork over draft picks thinking they can turn his career around, especially considering what happened to Mayfield and Darnold after they left here. I think a lot of people will be surprised at how high of a pick he would fetch too. There's a dozen guys you could bring in to match (or exceed) Bryce's production for 1/10th of what his 5th year option is going to cost. Let some other dumb team pay that (and ship us draft picks for the privilege). Dump Dalton too while you're at it, start the QB room over from scratch.
