The Carolina Panthers played poorly overall for the second week in a row but had a chance to win late only to come up short. This time, 19-16, to the New York Giants. The loss is the ninth straight for the Panthers and head coach Matt Rhule, calling into question how much longer Rhule has to turn things around in Carolina. Julian Council lays out some numbers that show how poorly things have gone during the Matt Rhule era.

If Panthers owner David Tepper were to move on from Rhule, who would take over? How much would the team benefit from a coaching change with 15 games to go?

Execution was an issue from the opening kickoff for the Panthers. How much of the loss is on the players failing to make routine plays? Is this a reflection on coaching? Might Chuba Hubbard's days in Carolina be coming to an end?

Plus, a few positives from a strong defensive performance + Christian McCaffrey bounces back in Week 2.
