If your HC needs "coaching up" that's a problem.

I don't think that'll come into play until we're mathematically eliminated from the playoffs. Not sure if losing to ATL would accomplish that or not.

Possibly. Because he sure as hell ain't the next Bill Belichick.

We'll have to see how he fares at Northwestern Texas A&M Tech State after he gets fired on Black Monday.

You think Tepper gave a coach $70M and full control just to dictate to him who his OC will be? That doesn't make any sense.

Play call probably came in late.

What five college bowl games are we playing in to give us an opportunity to win four more games?

Don't be shocked if Brady resurfaces elsewhere with significantly different results.

It's really hard to rebuild when you're trading future picks for players. You rebuild by accumulating draft capital, not trading it away.

Gross.

Sure wish we had those 2nd and 3rd rounders back...

Unless we can fix our OL situation I wouldn't want a rookie stepping on the field for us.

You don't shoot your cap situation to hell and trade away half your upcoming draft to rebuild. When you need a QB and four starting OL, you're not all that close... especially when your cap situation isn't fantastic and you have minimal draft capital to work with.

Honestly, the rebuild talk was just to temper expectations and buy time. Everything we SAID indicated rebuild. Everything we DID indicated these guys thought they could produce a quick turnaround and compete. Now here we are with a cap situation that was setup to be really good looking mediocre at best with a draft class heavily hampered by trading away picks for players that clearly aren't doing much to help us right now. Honestly, I think Rhule is just a snake oil salesman.

It really would be. As much as I'd love him here I only want him here if we get our poo together which honestly doesn't look like a promising proposition. Outside of that, yeah the Steelers are probably the best case scenario.

There have been more Steelers representatives around Chapel Hill and UNC games than any other NFL team. There's only one high level NFL prospect on UNC.

Did anyone actually watch the game? This was a game plan of necessity. It was bitter cold with 30-50mph winds. Not exactly conducive to airing it out.

Not just QB. The OL is a dumpster fire. Every receiver has regressed. The D has looked like trash two the past two games. I'm really not seeing anything for Rhule to hang his hat on right now in terms of signs of progress.

It's so easy! All we gotta do is call running plays and we win all the games!

Unless he's grown leaps and bounds as a man and a coach from his time with the Broncos, no he shouldn't have. McD was low key every bit the trainwreck with the Broncos that Lane Kiffen was with the Raiders, Broncos ownership was just smart enough not to air out the dirty laundry in full public view.

Hell, I wouldn't blame him.

They paid Brady a poo ton of money. It's not like we settled for Joe Brady. This OL is the OL Rhule and company wanted. We paid Erving and Eflein decent money despite them not being very good... or very reliably healthy. The stats that Moore has put up with the QB play he's had is borderline Herculean. If we let him walk, expect him to become a household name elsewhere.

Fedora had no desire to recruit or play defense. He just expected his offense to outscore everyone anyway.

Fitts and Rhule really started talking big when we started off 3-0. Unfortunately, both of Rhule's seasons started with promise before unraveling badly. This one even worse than last one. What we expected was a couple of struggle seasons while showing progress. What we've actually gotten is a couple of flailing seasons showing regression.

This is Larry Fedora 2.0.
