Rhule: I didn't want a play run before the 2 minute warning... The ball has to be thrown beyond the sticks on that 4th and 8.

[TylerDurden]

Just said this in his presser.  Said he didn't want that play run right before the 2 minute warning that led to the 4th and 8.  He said he'll have to get with the staff and figure out why that play was run.  Also, said Robby and Pharoah were downfield on the 4th and 8 and the "ball has to get past the sticks on that play."  He said he hasn't talked with Teddy but doesn't know why he threw it where he did.  Overall, he seems like he has had it and although said ultimately responsibility falls on him as the coach, he definitely implicated Teddy and "the staff," for these miscues today and mentioned both.  Hopefully, this will lead to some change because it seems like to this point Teddy has been given full autonomy of the offense with no accountability for his mistakes...  he has been making horrible decisions, bad pre-determined passes, and incurring penalties or lost yardage due to bad game management and/or audibles (such as the 3rd and 8 hurried play today before the 2 minute warning).  

Still have been disappointed by our team's regression as the year has gone on, but I'm glad Rhule finally addressed these things directly.

Sit him. Simple as that. The mistakes he made today shocked no one. This is what he is. 

[ncstatekwi]

Yeah....we know what TEDDY BEAR is....no doubt about it...see what the other 2 guys have...

[LinvilleGorge]

Then it's on you for A) having him in the game or B) dialing up a play with a shallow option.

If there's a two yard option on 3rd or 4th down, Teddy's taking it regardless of the distance to go. We've seen it time and time again. Dude protects his completion percentage like it directly translates to points on the board

Teddy is probably thinking about his knee as well with our poop o-line. He's just not the guy I want to watch at QB for years to come.

I know a lot of people want us to sit Teddy but he gives us the best chance to lose to I say play him these last 4 games.

There's some logic to this.  It's just painful to watch.

[Harbingers]

The play was run because he fugged up in the exact opposite way last week, overcompensation. Its on you rhule. own it.

[weyco2000]

I was thinking why are they running a play, now I’m thinking who called the play in? As far as Teddy is concerned, yeah on 4th down you gotta get the ball past the sticks, but there’s a whole lotta blame to pass around for this loss. Drew Lock damn near had a perfect passer rating....

[Mr. Scot]

Brady's in communication with Bridgewater, so you gotta figure he gave him the play.

If Brady didn't know that Rhule wanted to wait, that's poor communication.

Ya I have a feeling Rhule isn't exactly being truthful here.

They were trying to use the 2 minute warning as a clock stopper. It backfired on them. "nuff Said.

[RumHam]

Tepper will probably give him one more year then you start seeing the revolving door due to infinite money

Coaching for sure. Not Bridgewater. All coaching.

Everyone is just pointing fingers but truth is it’s everyone’s fault. This team is just bad in every way.
