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.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
