Nah, Rhule showed his fatal flaws and warts in 2020. The difference was that he had the benefit of the doubt since it was theoretically possible he'd learn and develop. Instead, we got the abomination that was 2022 and then inexplicably 5 games of 2022 as well.

A bunch of people being stupid and making Rhule a 'hot name' because they're chasing the next McVay doesn't excuse the stupidity. I'm not needling you here, but rather that the fact that anyone was enamored with him and his mediocre college track record at that level was absurd, and Tepper and Hurney getting caught up in it is not to their credit. A big part of it, absolutely. But the patented Rhule Year 3 Leap... lolz.

Owners can be blamed for being gigantic idiots though, and Rhule was such an easy fail to see coming. Tepper absolutely thought he had (somehow) outsmarted the NFL with the Rhule hire and it was straight delusion. Hopefully he actually learned something this time.

This seems most likely.

What a tool.

I wouldn't' be so down on him if he had shown amount of accountability or self-awareness during his time here. Dude just came across as not thinking he was a big part of the problem, even if he did actually realize that.

Agreed, nothing negative to see here.

Appears to be. I wondered the same and went and checked. https://mobile.twitter.com/lj_era8/with_replies Already making the media rounds: https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/lamar-jackson-vulgarly-responds-on-twitter-to-nfl-fan-who-calls-for-ravens-to-let-him-walk-at-end-of-season/

Yikes.

Baltimore shot themselves in the foot with that last sequence right before 2 minutes. Morons.

Nah.

And maybe I just haven't paid attention before, but I don't recall any other NFL coaches getting fired midseason and then doing the talk circuit. Am I wrong?

Has more than enough hot air for it.

Fun to watch? These past 2 years have been brutal, sure, but watching Teddy Ball was/is akin to watching paint dry.

Right, but i'm saying that for as solidly as Denver was thought to be a playoff team it was also solid that Rhule would suck. They sort or cancel out.

Nah, there was zero chance Rhule didn't fail this year. Denver on the other hand had some ridiculous hype.

Craziest sequence I can recall off the top of my head.

Fields and that offense are definitely trending up right now.

How does anyone take Urban Meyer seriously these days?

He was not a starter in 2019. Would be interesting to know what situations he played that year.

Yup. Otah is one of the biggest 'if onlys' in Carolina history, and that's saying something. Dude was an absolute beast that year.
