Matt Rhule is not into analytics, and his offensive philosophy is archaic and inefficient

All I know is the guy turned around two DISMAL programs in short order. He's doing something right!

Motivates well, builds a culture, recruited the right guys, etc.  But the NFL is not college football, and if you're going to rely on being a good leader, you'll end up like Ron Rivera (you can be successful with the right talent, but eventually you have to match wits with more clever coaches, and Super Bowl 50 happens).

No, the NFL is not college, but his track record in college warrants notice, and there is a reason he was considered a hot commodity in the NFL. Whether or not it translates, we'll see. I think he's got the right stuff, but time will tell the story.

I really don't have much of an opinion on the Rhule hire because I didn't think he'd be the guy. I thought he was going to the Giants.

Bottom line though is that this guy was a hot candidate for a reason. It's not like he came out of nowhere. He's been on NFL radars for awhile now and his name was connected to pretty much every NFL job available this season. Tepper identified the guy he wanted and he put a big enough number on paper to ensure he got him. That alone gives me reason to be hopeful again about the Tepper era.

and once you see Hurney walking around BOA when the video montage of the Rhule greeting comes out you'll be right back down to earth like the rest of us on the Tepper era.

I'm definitely curious about exactly what Hurney'd role will be going forward and perplexed why he has one.

Something I'm keeping in the back of my mind...

They asked Sean Payton about him, and Payton mentioned that Rhule is friends with Saints assistant GM Jeff Ireland (Ireland went to Baylor).

      So, Is Bryce Playing this Week or Nah?

      By CRA · Posted

      Tom Brady was on the injury report basically every game of his career.   I also think there is some wiggle room.   I think the Panthers have a very broad "high ankle sprain" definition.  With both of Bryce's high ankle sprains he has been up on his foot 24/7 from the moment it was announced.   High ankle sprains used to take players off their feet and you would be out weeks.  With Bryce, it's hard to tell there is anything there.

      Deep Ball in Cyclical Decline

      By strato · Posted

      We pretty much spent a fortune on the OL to buy time in the pocket, which okay right now they are out. But normally we should not be incapable of protecting long enough for a guy to take a drop and step up and send the ball down the field. We aren’t talking about Hail Mary stuff here. Just deeper than red zone depth.  Right now we don’t have the guy for that. Ours is slow to get back and when he does he needs time to turn his hips and get his feet set before he steps into the throw. or he has to bail out and concede one side of the field so he can get a run up to launch the ball down the half he left himself to work with. Seems like that  is where most of the issue is with having that in the playbook.  And trends. One thing thing about football trends is going too far with that leaves you open to be exploited somewhere else. As we always see eventually. Someone bucks the trend and it works. Now you have a new trend.

      I disagree. We were down 3 defensemen and 2 forwards. We worked hard and the refs were doing everything possible to make this a game. If we were full strength we win that game by 2 goals. Also, whoever is advising Rod from the truck needs to do a better job. Their second goal, was not a goal.
