Mr. Scot

Has to be bias because nobody could reasonably disagree with you, right? I've asked this before, and to date nobody has stepped up and answered Outside of the "year three" stuff and other generally speculative bullsh-t and happy talk, no one has given me any evidence that suggests Matt Rhule has suddenly become a competent NFL coach and everything is going to be better this year. On the flipside, I can point you to over two years worth of evidence that says Matt Rhule is garbage. So if you've got an actual reasonable argument why Rhule is going to be turn the corner and be a competent to good NFL head coach this year, here's your chance to present it. Give me all the reasons why I should trust him despite everything I've seen so far.

The Bucs are a good team, but at the same time they do kinda feel like a house of cards. If they do fall apart this season, someone will certainly take advantage of the opportunity. I'm not confident it'll be us.

Largely because the coach is a dumbass.

This is the kind of thing that you put aside when a coach has earned your trust. Matt Rhule has not earned my trust. You may feel differently.

Jordan has been a starter pretty much up to today. Elflein remains one.

Is it coachspeak that he's running Elflein and Jordan with the starters?

Now that's a reason to feel positive... And then this

That's kind of the thing though. The competition really may be over (or at least should be) but practice reps are still being devoted to it. It's kinda stupid.

Oh please do it

Renamed?! You always abuse your power!

Almost sounds like pro wrestling announcers... They're now alone on that front though

Former Panther... Unfortunate typo

Bets on who the coach was?

Not that it'd help anything but I'd happily slug the dumbsh-t yelling "just beat em up" in that clip myself

Our starting five still includes Pat Elflein and Michael Jordan. Say what you want about Bradley Bozeman, but he can play both center and guard. I have a tough time believing he's worth than Elflein, an even tougher time believing he's worse than Jordan, and an extremely tough time believing he's worse than both. Gotta think we could do better at center and Right guard...

Something he probably wouldn't want to hear...

What we're hearing now is more along the lines of what I was expecting. Word out of Patriots camp has been that the offense under Patricia is a mess. They may show more talent in individual drills though.

The NFLPA guy...

Hey @rayzor, is this pin-worthy?

Is he the one that the Browns lost for the season or was that a new guy?

I'm familiar with Lazar. He's not somebody I'd call a homer.

Worse than Elflein? I think I'd have to see that to believe it.

Kirkwood is a guy who actually seems like he'd be worth keeping except that something always happens to him.

That's...kinda one sided

For the record, Preseason 2 is now what Preseason 3 used to be. It's the game that involves the most actual game planning, starters playing etc. This is the one most people pay more attention to. I'm definitely going to be watching closely. I particularly don't want to see our defense looking bad against an offense that's being called by Matt Patricia
