Rhule has been fighting an uphill battle here from the day he arrived. He was set up to fail with covid wrecking his first offseason and a massive roster turnover, and Hurney. With all that he managed to put a respectable team on the field. I don't care who you are that was a tremendous accomplishment. Then comes season 2 where expectations were getting high as the draft and offseason played out. Even as the qb carousel continued with another gamble behind center. Then they started out winning and looking like things may just work out despite all the holes in the team and the gambling on roster positions. Then comes the realization that the inexperience on the team starts at the top. Those gambles that looked worth the risk caused a ripple effect when all fails at once with no realistic backup plan. The choice to go with a young potential OC, not a young experienced OC mind you, but a guy that had not called a game at any level. Well...you now see why Rhule brought his old play caller along just in case. Probably should have thought that one though a little more. So 3/4s of the way through his second season things have gone sideways because he chose to put his offense in the hands of a guy who had no experience at it. He's royally screwed up at qb and basically has no offense. What happens from here on will determine his fate. The odds are not in his favor.

It's the same in life. Hostility has replaced civility with everything, not just sports.

I'm willing to bet the playbook stays the same. I hope the route combinations change at least but the same plays will have to be ran. There's no way they can come up with an entirely new offense for everyone to learn. Its not just Cam who has to learn whatever is thrown at them.

Was there anyone else on staff that had called plays before? It appears he was the only choice at this point.

I am expecting just that.

I'm not impressed with hype. It was destined to fail from the beginning. Experience counts a lot.

I noticed it right away and was puzzled beyond belief. It appears that decision was not a wise one.

It won't matter at this point. The offense is what it is. You are bringing in a play caller cold late in the season with no knowledge of this offense. What could possibly go wrong?

So he based his choice to go with Sam on an old job interview on Zoom? That's some first class scouting right there.

You must be new here.

Are suggesting the we go find the evidence to convict ourselves? Dude, I'm not doing your homework for you.

I wouldn't get my hopes up. I doubt you notice a difference in results. This line is that bad. If the qb (whoever that is) starts throwing picks then the defense will ultimately fold. You can literally predict it as the game unfolds.

I think we have firmly established that as fact by now.

It's the Hurney gift that keeps on giving.

Well technically it was months before Sam met him after getting here. Apparently he hadn't met Matt prior to then so...

There is some truth to this. Cam is on borrowed time for sure and the team was desperate for a qb, so you get partial credit. B-

If you consider possibly signing one decent FA at an overpriced contract addressed then there's a chance. No, this will take a couple of offseasons at minimum to unfug.

I began to accept that about halfway through game 4. We have been bamboozled by the man behind the curtain.

Most QB's drafted as of late are one or two year wonders at best. It really is a crap shoot with these kids. The NFL is a different level of play that requires more than physical talent to have success in this league.

Our poo is already fuged. They need qb's, yes plural. The oline is right there with it I agree. But they are looking at 5 needed starters and several decent backups between the qb and oline positions. That is pretty fuged of you ask me.

What can I say, I like watching train wrecks. If you can't take the heat stay out of the kitchen.

It appears to me that the young prodigy has had his offense figured out. I would say the odds are good they will not be competitive.

Glad to see you back @Mr. Scot. Sorry to hear things are not going well at home. You are the best poster on this board my friend no matter what the mouth breathers would have anyone believe. As one of the elders here I personally would hate to see you leave this place for something other than family. May good fortune shine upon you in these troubled times my friend.
