Lame duck year implies that he's gone regardless but this is not that. Rhule's getting a genuine shot at turning the ship around next year because Tepper bought in on a two year rebuild and wants to see it out before cutting his losses. Whole reason he gave the dude 7 years is because he thought he would be winning in 3. He's not ready to call it a bust yet. If it looks like that's not happening I do believe he fires him midseason, but I think what some of ya'll are missing is that Tepper probably hates getting humilated over that deal as much if not more than he hates the team being a laughingstock. At least there are other factors to blame for the team being bad.

This is what am I saying. What does Sam bring to the table in a 2 QB system? We're going to sacrifice all momentum so we can sub in a marginally better passer?

this is dumb he didn't even criticize them

It's Neal > Cross > Ekwonu for me but the pick has to be one of them. I like them all but Cross's potential is the most exciting.

That would be a contender for Tepper's dumbest decision yet. I'm not sure Rhule can convince anyone to try and save his ass next year and every day he's given handicaps the search for his replacement.

Hard disagree. Would rather just solve LT once and for all then try to press our luck like that. The other spots aren't nearly as hard to fill.

Definitely caught this too. Lowkey confirmed that passing on Slater was Rhule's call. I'll give the front office this much: Someone said Tepper reads the huddle and other fan sites and I absolutely believe that. Fitt and Rhule appear aware of all the criticism being tossed their way and the timing of the decisions lately seem like they're in direct response. Having fun imagining Tepper calling Rhule into his office to watch a slideshow of huddle hate.

Same. A good playcaller could do a lot with with him and CMC.

he always does well in year 3 bro it's analytics bro

If you have o-line problems I feel bad for you son...

Greatest rushing QB of all-time and Sam Darnold.

At least know without a doubt that Rhule is insecure about Cam.

Dudes just stating the obvious

If we keep Cam and upgrade the o-line I'll still be interested. Emphasis on the "and".

He's so dumb and unfunny that I'm genuinely not sure which to blame this time

See that is a red flag

Man definitely needs help but I don’t count this case as proof

Think the truth is in the middle somewhere. AB was downplaying the severity of his injury because he wanted to meet his incentive goals, got upset because he was playing through it but not getting the ball. It’s a shame that everyone jumped to “he’s a headcase”. I don’t think this was some crazy CTE outburst at all, just dude selfishly expecting special treatment for personal gain while his coach is just trying to win.

I’ve seen enough to believe that with pass protection Cam’s still got franchise QB play in him. And Cam’s talent, even now past his prime, brings an x-factor that is too rare to not take advantage of while we still can. I can’t say the same about Sam and PJ. Until we get some pass protection no QB will do well here. It’s the most important aspect of the rebuild and gambling a high pick on a rookie QB right now is putting the wagon before the horse. Whoever we put behind center is doomed unless the line is fixed first.

Cam's on a one year deal it's literally not an option

Put Cam on ice until they get some protection let Darnold play behind Rhule’s bum line

I doubt that. Rhule found success in year 3 at Baylor and Temple and I’m sure that’s what Tepper’s been banking on. Pressure’s mounting though.

They didn’t even discuss QB ya’ll

Talking moreso how it reflects on Cam. Like that graphic they showed last week of our QBs W/L records. Without context it looks like Cam is definitely the worst of the bunch. The no wins in last 12 starts stat comes up a lot outside this fanbase, if Cam has any intention on continuing in the league he's not doing himself any favors hitching himself to this sinking ship right now.
