  1. That was a name that popped into my mind too, although I've always felt like he was a more ideal fit at linebacker than safety.
  2. Fitterer and Morgan's personnel moves this offseason really seem to be clicking. If we don't improve this year, you'd have a tough time blaming it on the roster. (quarterback issues outstanding, of course)
  3. I mean, when Marty Hurney was fired, Tepper kinda hinted at maybe keeping him too long but mostly was just "Well, Matt's graduated and he's ready to take control". He doesn't seem all that keen on admitting to mistakes or failures.
  4. Cause the people making these decisions really don't want to lose their jobs.
  5. Me too. Fighters and martial artists say if you're fighting someone large, attack the knees. There's a lot of weight sitting on them.
  6. Dr Johnny Fever passed away not long ago.
  7. I genuinely don't get that. If you're trying to full on recruit the guy (and this basically was a recruiting trip) why wouldn't you bring along someone he knew and worked with before? Did you just trust Matt Rhule's college recruiting experience would be enough?
  8. Well whatever they did, it sounds like their "sales pitch" meeting went something like WKRP's pitch to Vicky Von Vicky jeans.
  9. I like him as a player if he's healthy. maybe not for that big a contract though...
  10. I'd wanna know about that failed physical first...
  11. 49ers also wanted him. Guy we let go last year isn't doing too bad for himself.
  12. Person has a similar conclusion regarding the contract question and David Tepper.
  13. Chemistry with the new guys on his coaching staff is gonna be a question too. Rhule isn't used to not having "his guys". How's he going to react if someone tells him he's straight up wrong?
  14. Which is an incredibly stupid reason to draft any player. But yeah, it won't surprise me
  15. There's a big difference in knowing what needs to be done and knowing how to do it. Saying "we need a great quarterback" makes sense. Moving from that to saying "let's trade for Jimmy Garoppolo" for example, not so much. And the Watson trade was always a "Gift of the Magi" type proposition. That's just not the smart way to go if you really want to build a complete team.
  16. I've never bought into the idea that he was, He doesn't sit at the top of the food chain, but that doesn't make him a "yes man" anymore than it makes John Schneider one.
  17. Taylor didn't have full control like Rhule does. Carroll did, but he also had extensive NFL experience, an infinitely superior college record and better results in his first two seasons. You have to earn the benefit of a doubt. Rhule hasn't done that.
