We drafted him because of his skills in man coverage, right? And we've got him playing zone. Why should I expect anything else?

Translation:

he should be...but there's rhule in the picture.

i don't want us to get beat...ever. i never have. not even when we were in the cam newton sweepstakes. i had every confidence that we were bad enough to get the losses needed to get that first pick. i highly doubt we will win, though. i just have no confidence that we will. i mean it's possible, but any wins we get will be rare and infrequent this year. i don't want us to tank purposefully. i just think it happens. the difference is that when we were in the running for first pick to get cam, i was certain we'd have enough losses to get it. the problem is with this...just how many losses is enough for tepper to pull the plug? i just don't trust him to do it any time soon.

and our unit spent the whole of training camp in some sham competition when they should have been gelling with each other and baker (who shouldn't have been part of some sham QB competition either).

i think i started in '04 as well. i can't really remember anymore. huddle was a very different place back then lol.

just an fyi...huddle is a few years older than that. that date in 2008 was after the great meltdown after we got stomped in ATL a few days before. board melted down literally. @Jai. was around for the original board, though.

where did you see it?

you're just mad because you didn't think of this one first.

same

makes no sense to quit. he could have any college vacancy he wanted whenever he gets fired and he'd have time/money to sit and wait if he wanted to. that's a lot of money to give up.

when he got hired, vick was the QB...which is why petrino took the job. vick got into trouble before petrino could start coaching him and never got to use him, which is why he bailed.

my goal was to stay awake through the whole game this week. for the most part i did but it wasn't easy. i caught myself snoozing more than a few times. i'm not really interested in seeing if i can do it again.

more analytics for you.

they weren't just proud. they were talking about being a for sure playoff team and they were getting things lined up for a playoff run. it went straight up to their heads so fast it lifted their feet off the ground.

rhule tried to eliminate that....which he actually succeeded in doing. thanks, rhule. new culture rhule was bringing in was absence of character and excitement.

no it doesn't. we've seen several teams recently that go from top 5 pick to top 5 teams within a couple years. a coach that knows what he's doing doesn't need more than a couple seasons. if it takes more than 3, you've got the wrong coach.

i see people post poo like this often. last week it was "if he cured cancer people would still hate him." what i want to know is where is the ridiculously unfair criticism that supposed level headed fans see so much of? people dislike him as a coach because he doesn't know how to win on the pro level and barely had it figured out on the college level and even then never saw any sustained success. so again....these unfair criticisms, if people are actually doing it enough that you and others feel the need to call it out, please share..... i'll be waiting.

Please let all rhule love stay in here so other threads aren't polluted.

Responsibility of coaching is to get the players ready to play to win.

He was actually pretty much completely in the Richardson should be gone camp, so again....not sure what you were trying to say and your explanation didn't help. I seriously doubt he misses JR even if he doesn't like tepper. It is possible to be glad JR is done and wish we had a better owner. I know I do, just like I am still glad Rivera and fox are gone and I want Rhule gone.

Pretty much where I was and now I just want to move on. I saw the flaws last year in spades and realized that this isn't going to be getting any better.

Baker is small and you can tell.
