Not sure how many people watched the press conference yesterday, which was beyond excellent btw, but Rhule mentioned that he wanted Purdy on the Panthers board but was vetoed.

Looks like with Super Bowl week this is starting to trend. Not a good look for the Panthers.

Combined with Herbstreit's comments it's amazing how much national play a 5 win team is getting during SB week.

Matt Rhule had final roster and draft say in Carolina by contract. The only person keeping Matt Rhule from drafting Purdy was Matt Rhule.

Matt Rhule in Carolina had a pro bowl QB in Mayfield and a league MVP caliber player in McCaffrey and managed to win just one game.

If I’m Brock Purdy I’m thanking my lucky stars that a Matt Rhule coached team didn’t draft me

why even say that?

reminds me of Elway talking about the QB's he actually wanted to pick when he whiffed hard on the ones he actually did.

fact of the matter is, nobody could've predicted Brock Purdy to be as great as he is. No other team would've provided as many weapons along with a QB-whisperer of a coach like Kyle Shanahan.

Well in Rhule's case he actually game planned and coached against Purdy while at Baylor. So he probably has a little more credibility than some.

Agree that Purdy landed in the best spot.

Shanle is buds with Joe Brady. That’s his beef with Rhule. Those QBs were his GM’s choice.

And for anyone who missed it, Shanle's first excuse was some 2nd or 3rd hand encounter he heard about where someone claimed Rhule looked at them funny or some nonsense, and that proved in his CTE and PED-addled brain that Rhule was the devil 🤣 And at the same time, Ameer Abdullah, who was on the Carolina roster with Rhule, spoke quite highly of his own, 1st hand experiences 🤣🤣🤣

that's probably true.

i'm just not buying that he was totally hamstrung on not being able to get who he wanted, much less by using literally the last pick of their draft. had he not made the terrible decision to start Sims at the beginning of this year, i'd be more likely to believe he has an eye for breakout QB talent

Shanle is such a whiny *****. He's Mr. Hot take on everything and couldn't give 2 ***** what he has to say. Congrats Scott. We know you played with the Saints.

The same McCaffrey that only played 10 games from 2020-2021.

Redmich fails again.

The same franchise that traded DJ Moore and a 2023 2nd round pick, 2024 1st round pick, and a 2025 2nd round pick. And then took Bryce Young over CJ Stroud.....

I blame Rhule for Bryce Young as well. Am I doing this right?

When you’re saddled with a certified dumbass for an owner (as Rhule was with the Panthers), I think it’s more than fair game to point out that the blame for an unsuccessful tenure should be shared. Not sure the Panthers will ever win anything with David Tepper there.

Bryce Young is the perfect example. Frank Reich early on publicly stated his preference for Stroud before the draft. He got over ruled by his owner and GM.

Young could be a decent QB if he didn’t need a stepstool to brush his teeth. But cmon, how do you trade all of your assets and picks away and take the risky choice of the QBs available? Carolina is in football purgatory after trading away Moore, getting FLEECED for CMC and not having any first round picks in the upcoming draft. Way to set your franchise up to fail, Matt Rhule. Sheesh

Those were not Rhule’s decisions.
