You've just devoted about a dozen paragraphs and a buttload of words to defending him in this thread alone, not to mention what you said in the other one.

So apparently you do 😄

Nope. I don’t. I only care that some people like the OP, oh I mean you can’t help but start anti-Rhule threads. Feel free to point out my I love Rhule threads. Dude, Rhule coached against Purdy. It’s OK that you didn’t know that.

It reminds me of Howard Stern’s movie/biography where Stern haters listened longer than Stern fans. I’m not a Rhule fan, just love getting your goat when you try to paint him as “the problem” when your guy Fitt was far worse. Adios!

Dude, you couldn't "get my goat" if you were a professional goatherder 😄

What you've done in this response though is basically admit that I own you since you want so badly to oppose me on anything...even when that opposition is stupid.

Not like it wasn't obvious anyway, but hey... 😁

Unless someone was asking him point-blank on whether he ever considered drafting Purdy, why would he bring this up in the first place? And if the question was asked, the answer comes across as deflecting blame, taking a shot at us and/or inflating his ego. Take your pick.

Doesn't even matter much whether his statement has any validity because he doesn't really have the credibility to have the benefit of the doubt here.

Stealing a line from Gantt, Matt Rhule has made people stupid for some time. I mean, Rhule is dumb, which helps out. 

Rhule in simple terms said a QB who beat him and he played against several times should be in their board…and he was told no or ignored on it by the folks who put it all together in the end. Which isn’t outlandish at all.  That probable scenario likely happens all the time in the NFL.  The, this random kid I like is someone I think should be on our board and doesn’t make it.  Teams have all sorts of people arguing for guys that don’t end up making the board.  I mean, that’s how a board is formed.  

every coach, scout, GM has a list of players they could say they liked and if only the rest listened….

Matt Rhule is an easy target.  Because he is a floundering coach at this point.  And he had always been dumb with the mic.  I would assume he largely is speaking a truth,  which is why he says to check the receipt on that and offers it up.  That doesn’t mean he is as fighting for Purdy.  Just that he mentioned a kid he knew….and was ignored in a draft he clearly was in the backseat on at that point

We don't know whether he made the draft board or not.

We only know we took a former Rhule recruit instead

Yet the last pick they made in that draft was a kid from Baylor, continuing the trend of taking players who used to play for him. Guessing he didn’t get vetoed on that one. 
 

I can’t take anything this guy has said on his way out seriously when he tried to take credit for the wilks finish saying that he established the culture.

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

      By cranky · Posted

      Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers.

      Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      By XClown1986 · Posted

      I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
