Might have the most charismatic coach in the league. How anyone could think players wouldn’t want to play for him is beyond me. There’s something about him when he’s speaking that compels you to listen.

The thing about charisma and coaching success, wellll...

I know you're not establishing a direct link between the two, but still...

Not at all. I hope he’s successful but he certainly can fail. My only point was there were lots of people saying things like “grown men won’t want to play for this guy”

I’m not buying that. Hell, I want to play for him

I've heard that said about other college coaches before.

There are definitely coaches who do better with college kids than professional adults. I haven't seen anything that definitively tells me Matt Rhule is one of them yet.

Guess we will see. I feel pretty confident he will have the ability to rally a locker room. Even more confident this board will forever be negative in nearly any situation

That's relevant in college recruiting. In the NFL, despite what pending free agents might say about winning, etc. it's almost always the highest bidder who gets the prize.

I'm actually the most positive I have been in a while about the team.  We have seemed to be a rudderless ship for a long time, and while I don't fully agree with what we are doing, I at least see a plan...a path if you will.

Rhule's coaching persona is that of a motivator, as opposed to a tactician which is what Belichick would be.

You can win Super Bowls with a motivator type head coach. The Colts did with Tony Dungy (and Tampa came close) but you have to have tactician coaches on staff as the coordinators.

Rhule has Snow and Brady.

If they're good enough at what they do, then it'll make what he does a lot easier.

Yep it's essentially the Coach O model at LSU. Hell even the same OC. Except at the end of the day I think Rhule coaches circles around EddyO

      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.
