Looking at Rhule's one year in the NFL

Matt Rhule's only year of NFL experience was 2012 with the New York Giants. They wen't 9-7 that year and missed the playoffs, so just a 16 game sample size. And yes, he was the assistant OL coach, which doesn't mean a whole lot, but still interesting to look at how their OL fared that year with him involved in coaching it:

From https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2012/index.htm :

In the passing game, the Giants were first in the league in sacks allowed with only 20 all year (this with a very immobile Eli at QB). Next best was Broncos with 21 and then Bucs and Saints with 26. Average was 36.5. Fair to say they had one of the best, if not the best, pass blocking OLs in the league.

In the run game, they were 14th in rushing yards with 1,862, 5th in rushing TDs with 18 and 7th in Y/A with 4.6. This was with Ahmad Bradshaw as their main running back and while they had an explosive rookie in David Wilson as well, he was in Coughlin's dog house for much of the year due to fumbling early. Not exactly the best RB group, and still a top rushing unit.

Offensive linemen

Above are the players he had to work with. Of that group, the only ones who were ever Pro Bowlers or All-Pro were Chris Snee (Pro Bowl that year, and three other years, as well as one first team All-Pro and two second team) and David Diehl (one Pro Bowl and two second team All-Pros).

 

Overall, I'd say this was a pretty damn good job, but of course should be taken with a grain of salt considering he was the assistant OL coach, not the OL coach. Take it for what it's worth.

You posted about one year of NFL experience coaching an OL. The basis of this thread is irrelevant. 

Then why would you click on it? Some may find it slightly interesting. I did. It probably means nothing. But who knows.

But College Man Bad

College Man no Work in NFL

some college guys work out great.  You never know. 

But Rhule just went 0-11 vs the top 25 while at Baylor.  Hard to automatically think he is the key to the Super Bowl.

      Forget trying to draft a QB in the early first round--it's stupid

      By ColumbusCounty · Posted

      I dont think people realize how hard it is to find a consistent starting QB in the NFL. Byrce will not heart us to a SB but I do think he can manage to get us one or close..go all in on defense and change the Offensive passing game and play calls. I really think our biggest problem is our HC.  Take New Orleans QB for example, switch him and Bryce and I promise you it'll look similar or worse. New Orleans OC is levels ahead of Canales. And as far as the draft goes, in this division with as much rb talent as we face ..the answer...this guy:    Pick up a couple edge rushers in FA along with a corner and plug this guy in Rozeboom's spot. Defense solved. But only if we get a top tier rusher on that dline....jus saying

      World cup ticket prices

      By HeelsPanthersCanes · Posted

      I think I'm going to the game in Los Angeles vs Paraguay, and the England / Croatia game here in Dallas since my mom is British.  For decent seats anywhere in the building(s) it looks like it will be upwards of $7k for the two games.  Insane. Just for perspective, you could buy field level EPL tickets for any one of the top sides in the league, and it would be 10% of the price you'll pay for crappy seats at the World Cup.

      Possibly playoff affectng news

      Meh… I knew this thread would turn into a Bryce/Tua comparison, when they couldn’t be further apart situations.   Dolphins catered there whole offense toward Tua, they brought in a coach that would run a Tua friendly offense, the went in got the best most explosive WR in the NFL and paired him the fastest WR in that years draft. Panthers have done the opposite, they went and got a Pete Carroll disciple who likes to run the ball under center, they drafted big slow WR who got little separation in college. Literally the polar opposite of Bryce’s scouting report coming out of Alabama.   Tua was a decent QB 2 years ago, but the concussions, lack of movement have caught up to him. He never had a great arm to begin with but now since he doesn’t want to get hit he’s taking the whole offense down with him.
