going on a 3-1 run after losing your best player is a nice start.
Joe Brady appears to be the X-Factor. Rhule deserves tons of credit for that hire, but he won't be an assistant for long.
LSU has fallen apart without him running the offense. Carolina could do the same.
Also, if you're gonna knock Gase and the Jets for winning against cupcakes at the end of last season, that's essentially what Carolina has done so far this season. They beat a winless Atlanta team, a bad Chargers team, and upset (if you can call it that) the Cardinals.
