He’ll get a shot with a new OC before that happens. Rhule and Snow have worked together for years. Brady is the third wheel and will be the first one cut loose if Tepper demands blood.

That's a good point but TBH I don't see Tepper talking anything about blood when he clearly laid out a 5 year plan and I for one am going to take him on that. If a firing happens it'd be because Rhule made the call within that time frame.

Tepper came from the Steelers and they keep coaches long term. That may have been missed by our fanbase and is something to keep in mind going forward. I doubt we see the coaching carousel here. 
Granted we don't know for sure how he is in that regard but its the little we have to go off of when thinking about it.

Did the defense allow the Eagles to take the lead?  Did the defense stop the Eagles on their final scoring drive?

Answer "yes" or "no".

 

You won't.

Defense played lights out, but it's fair to say they have blame.  Also if you watched the press conference, he clearly did not want the defensive players thinking it's the offense at fault.  He doesn't want an offense/defense rift in the locker room. 

It's a team.  They all win or they all lose.  The defense did not lose less than the offense. 

That's the message Matt Rhule was conveying.  He went into detail.  You either have to be mentally less capable or purposely spinning to not see how his answers were framed in regards to those questions.

I don't blame the defense literally at all. I don't think Rhule is actually blaming the defense for the loss either.  They let up one really big play and they were on the field all day. This was on the hr offense not putting up points.

Hee gave a response about his philosophy. It was a media response question. I don't care what he says in media presser because it's going to be mostly media responses. 

Youre making an entire argument pounding your chest and yelling from the rooftops making a conspiracy from this, when yes you have a lot of valid things to be upset about the past two weeks but this press conference being one of them is literally clown shoes.

This was question the media asks, Rhule answers it, media takes it out of context after a few tweets spin it weird (follow his Twitter to stay up to date!).

Was Donte out of place on those read options? Probably. Did it cost us the game? Technically but no one is saying the game being an L is solely on that. Literally no one.

Well more like they were out there more than they should've been.

This is the Eagle drive times. Overall we had TOP +11

 

If people are trying to say the defense was anywhere near tired or on the field too much I don' think they're saying what they think they're saying. Be in some poo if so

You're right on this. I guess it felt like more just due to how little we moved the ball, but even then the snap count total was still in our favor.

      Be careful what you wish for

      Like that matters. That's the first thing. I suggested that it's probably better to let a QB sit and learn, and that's what I meant. Secondly, in what planet am I making excuses, my friend, or engaging in any mental gymnastics in Bryce Young's defense? As I have said, I don't care if he turns into Mighty Mouse, it's time for him to go. In my opinion, he's too short to be a successful QB in the NFL. I have seen enough. I'd rather trade him and take my chances with Hooker, at least he's more of a prototypical size and can actually see where and why he's throwing the ball.

      About that schedule.

      There is a scenario where our team comes out prepared to play football instead of shitting the bed for the first quarter. Every bad Bryce game seems to start with him looking incompetent - the OL looking incompetent - and the defense looking incompetent.  Boom, down 14 before we know what hit us. Imagine a world where we come prepared and play with a lead, and Bryce gets to fulfill his ceiling by managing a game instead of playing catch up. He's bad, but upon reflection he is not Clausen bad.  He can move the team down the field when he gets 4 - 5 seconds in a clean pocket against a soft zone.  I don't think Clausen could do that.

      You are literally naming almost entirely instances where they are sitting behind a well established if not star player that was already on the team. That's a different scenario entirely.  Listen, if you want to make all the mental gymnastics for excuses, have at it. I think the facts are clear, Bryce Young is not an NFL caliber player. Furthermore, no amount of pine time nor change of scenery is likely to change that.
