Rhule the guy, how long you give him?


Jmac

Recommended Posts

Opinions...Taking all factors into account ,Hurney still the GM (at this point), rebuilt under way, QB position unclear, how many seasons does Rhule have to right the ship?

Will you want to tar and feather Rhule in one season if the team doesn't improve?  Two seasons? Or stick with him for three or more?

Does this town have the patience to let things develop or not?

...thoughts?

We're gonna suck this year. Typically, first-year coaches struggle. The best season a first-year coach has had here was 8-8 with Seifert in 1999. We won't sniff eight wins, but I'm looking for young guys to step up and for the team to buy in, be competitive and not fold in November.

Rhule is inheriting the league's worst defense and the league's worst offensive line, but he's also inheriting the league's best running back and one of its best wide receivers.

Somehow I don’t feel like rhule will be down with cams preferred attire. 

Meh I just read he has a very loose locker room approach. My issue with him when I read up on him is that he is like an evangelical type of speaker. Not sure if that type of speaking will translate to the nfl. I hope it does and I hope he has a ton of success. I’ll be rooting for him to take this franchise to winning consistently.

    • I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.
    • I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
