Yeah, its crap like this article that makes these "analysts" so hard to stomach.. They don't KNOW anything, Just want to spout off to hear themselves talk. They can go a whole season slinging crap like this and not even come close to reality. Then let them stumble and get ONE guess right and the whole world thinks they're God's gift to prognosticators.!!
Look... I don't know what's coming. Never said I did. But I remember CLEARLY what Tepper said when he announced that Rhule was coming to Charlotte. Something along the lines of..... "..This is a PROCESS... It won't happen overnight... I'm behind Coach Rhule all the way... blah, blah, blah..." Sure, David Tepper is still pretty much an unknown. But he is NOT afraid to make decisions or changes--that much we know. I think Tepper expects to see progress....We'll see how much patience he has as this "process" unwinds.
Given the nature of the past two seasons.... Covid protocols, no camp, lowered cap, etc, etc... This has definitely not been an easy route into NFL coaching. I think Tepper understands this. Rhule deserves a chance to get his feet under him. This year is really just the first opportunity to see how this is going to sort out. Last year was a lost cause...a complete experiment. I FEEL CERTAIN THAT RHULE GETS AT LEAST ONE MORE YEAR, MAYBE TWO MORE. ...... BUT, remember... Tepper expects to see progress. THAT is the one thing that adds to the list of unknowns here and adds to the 'fog' of uncertainty.. Could Tepper fold up this 'house of cards' (maybe..??). Could happen I guess....
But, I don't think so........... OTOH, what do I know.??
