Mr. Scot

Yep. Gruden had final say on everything and it's well known how big a control freak he is. Makes it hard to know how much to really blame Mayock for.

Getting started early...

On the flipside... I'd call this an accurate statement. Eagles OL Coach Jeff Stoutland is talked about as one of the best in the league.

I do remember a while back there was a player who talked about it saying stuff like that was really only effective for maybe half of the first quarter He said "You're too busy thinking about your assignment, the game plan, what the coach told you, etc to be emotional about things like that for very long." Granted that me just be his opinion, but it makes sense.

Yeah, basically they've already begun. The "winners" get announced after tomorrow's Noon deadline.

Aaaaaand the expected response has arrived...

I still think Tremble has potential. To be clear though, I wouldn't be against signing Howard. I'd just have low expectations.

"You have no...marbles!!!"

Darryl Williams too...

I get the curiosity, but he's legitimately kind of a bust. (not that Ian Thomas is anything special)

Here's the thing... Rhule is bad at his primary job (coaching). He's been, by his own statements and those of others, heavily involved in the quarterback decisions (which to date have been terrible). His other talent evaluation task, choosing assistant coaches, has gone poorly. And, as mentioned, he has final say over everything. People genuinely have little to no reason to have positive feelings about him. Fitterer, though? There's been the way he ran the draft, getting trades for guys we didn't expect, the presence of Dan Morgan, hell just sounding like he actually has a clue when he talks...and other things as well. Believing that Fitterer and Morgan could be successful if divorced from Rhule is not exactly a difficult thing.

I get it, and yet you blame Fitterer for any and all moves you don't like as if he and Rhule we're basically one and the same. The inner workings of an NFL team are waaaaayyy more complicated than that. You assign a good move involving a former Rhule college player to Rhule, but a bad move with one to Fitterer. You're doing the very thing you accuse others of doing.

But you've indicated all the bad personnel moves are on Fitterer. See how that works?

These days if I "put the hammer down" I'm putting down an actual hammer

Simple request: Name something good you think Rhule is responsible for...

Jermaine Carter is available

Yeah, he would. Our initial 53 doesn't include a kicker. They're planning on signing a kicker after Sam is IRed.

Yeah, I figure as soon as that's done they'll name their kicker.

To be fair, only people around my age are gonna get that reference

Anybody want Jermaine Carter back?

Waiver order...

FYI for anyone interested; Ted Nguyen and Mitchell Schwartz did a breakdown of Alex Leatherwood

Gonzalez isn't coming back this year...
