I mean, you can only play who you put in front of you, but the Jets, Saints, and Texans aren't exactly the stiffest of competition out of the gate. That defense came back down to earth last weekend.

WFT has a better W/L record through their respective tenures, made the playoffs, and gave the SB champs all they wanted - all with a much more maligned QB situation, and apparently a paper tiger defense. RR has done more for this organization in the same time than Rhule has for Carolina in my opinion.

I do think that Rhule was a good hire - time will tell for sure, but I'm tired of the comparisons that seem to indicate that Carolina is on a much better trajectory than the WFT. I don't see it.
