Matt Rhule defends Joe Brady

I agree. The game shouldnt had been as close as it was. We turned over the ball in the end zone, missed a XP field goal, punted when we should have kicked a FG, had some key drops and multiple penalties, I know the one holding penalty by Elfein probably cost us a drive. Also dropped TD pass by Thomas.  It the first game of the season so you can expect there to be more mistakes. We should have had 10-17 more points if it wasn’t for the mistakes.

Yes, don't know if it's Rhule or Brady but there was no intensity / urgency on the offensive side of the ball coming out in the second half.  It reminded me of Fox and Rivera.  

Rivera and the tried and true method of sitting on a FG lead to start the second quarter.

Tried and true meaning its obviously going to fail

I still think Brady largely called a good first half but totally botched the second half. The difference clearly shows in the offensive stats in each halves. In the second half it took a full quarter before he adjusted to the Jets' pressure.

How much of it is Brady or Rhule being too conservative with the lead?

Maybe we should have been more hard on Rhule.

 

Maybe your brand new offense needed more snaps under game conditions in the preseason. That way timing and execution could be better. 

I can definitely get behind this idea.  I realize they were trying to limit exposure given the 17 game season, but we certainly didn't look fully "ready" on offense.  Defense always starts faster than offense and all that.

They'll get the benefit of the doubt when they actually win something in our division.

Has nothing to do with benefit of the doubt. You all are bitching about 'trends' when you have one game to go on. The steaming, hot, shitty takes you guys are making on this board days after a win are hilarious, but also exhaustingly dumb.

Actually the redzone woes were present throughout last season too so that is a trend that has followed us into this year unfortunately and remains a thorn in our side until shown otherwise. Hopefully they show much better results against the Saints.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
