Can we all just calm down a little bit, especially with this Rhule and his baylor hires.  Think about it like this....we hired Rhule to come in and do what he does best, build teams.  So if Rhule hires all these "NFL" guys that have their ways of doing things wouldn't that hurt Rhule in doing what he wants to do?  He is bringing in his dudes that know exactly what he is about to do....will be no surprises for Rhule in company as he builds this dynasty.

I'm not excited by the staff other than Rhule and Brady.  Dynasty.  I'd settle for B2B winning seasons and some semblance of consistency.

I'm fine with measured concern (ha ha, on the Huddle???), and a lot of these Baylor hires do have me concerned.

If it looks like poo next season, then folks are going to get fired.  Tepper is betting BIG on Rhule.  We'll see if it work.

I can completely get bringing in his guys to run his team the way he wants it.  He doesn't want to bring in career NFL people who have their own agendas, wanting to move up the chain in a year or two.

So we'll just have to see if it works.

Guys have to start somewhere but I don’t like that he said he wanted to bring a few seasoned NFL coaches in here and either didn’t or couldn’t deliver it. I don’t like that we couldn’t figure out how to get Berry here and aren’t waiting for the Patriots guy for this position. 
 

It’s making me worry that Tepper is ok with this coming season being a full on learning experience for the entire football side of the organization that will either pay off or not.

You know the best way to come up with new ideas? Have a group made up of diverse individuals. Rhule's 'process' works in college, we don't know if it will work in the NFL. I hope these guys can all think outside of (Rhule's) the box and challenge him when needed.

We're all hoping it'll work out. But to be fair, there are indeed reasons to be concerned.

The biggest one being a major lack of NFL experience on the coaching staff. And yeah, putting a guy who's never worked in the NFL in an executive position raises an eyebrow too. Honestly, the situation it seems to most mirror is what the Eagles did with Chip Kelly.

I'm not "freaking out" at this point, but there are valid reasons to wonder whether or not this is going to work.

So, we've got a new head coach coming in and he's been able to bring about 3/4 of the staff he used at his last spot (two last in some cases) where he was able to turn programs around quickly. Many new head coaches get lucky if they can snag one or two folks they have worked with, so seeing that he is lifting a staff into place from one source, it probably gives him the best chance to succeed.

The fact that they are making the jump from college to pro level is the worrisome one, but there seems to be a sprinkling of NFL experience in there. And he does not seem to be basing his future plans on some revolutionary way to run the game and build teams.

Let's give it some time, because it is going to take some time.

And remember, you wanted change and that always creates at least some suckage.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
