It's year two so I will support him. Still what really concerns me the most though is our coordinators. I really wish he had gone with at least one experienced one. I think we will be looking for a new OC next year exactly because of that and that means learning a new system. 

You're probably right about the team looking for a new OC. This place would probably go bonkers, even more so than now, if the following quoted post happens.

I think we have our guy in Sean Ryan.  Very well-respected around the league.  A lot of experience working with talented QBs and WRs.  Matt Stafford liked him a lot.  I'd be surprised if he isn't next-in-like for OC.

Ah. The Ron Rivera let's promote from within strategy to maintain consistency. We've seen how that movie before. It wasn't good either.

Plenty of teams promote within and do so to great success.  Rivera's issue wasn't necessarily promoting within, it was promoting people who clearly didn't deserve to be promoted.  Sean Ryan has a much stronger resume than Mike Shula had.  Ryan would have been a good OC hire at the time if we hadn't already nabbed Brady.

And for whatever it's worth, Sean Ryan has experience with two QBs we've targeted... Matt Stafford and now, Deshaun Watson.

I wouldn't say Ryan has a stronger resume than Shula by any means. At least Shula had prior experience as a HC(Alabama) and an OC before Rivera promoted him. Ryan's highest coaching job has been a QB coach for the powerhouses known as the Texans, Giants, Lions, and Panthers. Let's not forget his time coaching in the college ranks at the powerhouses of Harvard, Columbia, and Colgate.

If Ryan was worth taking a shot on as an OC, some team would have done so by now with the way the NFL is after the next young genius coach. Having experience with Stafford sure worked out well too, didn't it? The answer to that is no, it didn't since Stafford rejected the Panthers.

I'm not ready to dump Rhule.  Yes the buck stops with him.  He will need to set some ass on fire soon if he hasn't already.  I'll give him one more year to prove himself.

The years are already piling up, we did this same poo with Rivera and what did it get us? HoF talents wasted thats what. 

What if Rhule catches lightning in a bottle next year much like Rivera did when he was on the hotseat and goes back to poo the following year. Only to be on the hotseat again and catch more lightning and stick around another 4 years.

fug that. 

Either Rhule can can this college crap and get some NFL guys on his staff or we need a new coach.

lol  I like this one. "We don't have talent. But if that talent, that we don't have, quit on the coach, he needs to go."

 

No arguing that rebuttal.

 

If you can't look at this team, and see the amount of talent out there? That's a you  problem.

I've got a problem for sure....It's that I root for this lousy ass franchise. Thankfully since 2015 I care much less than I did. It's comical to me at this point.

    • Completely agreed.  TBH, we have had so many great players that are in my favorite list, and I hate to narrow it down to one, but Cam is it.  Which is crazy, because you would think it would be more of the guys I grew up watching, but no.  Cam was the single most impactful player to ever out on a football uniform imo.  And like I said in an earlier post, I always felt a kinship with him in a lot of ways…  the way he was treated and judged for the off the field stuff in Florida and having to overcome all of that and fight show at back.  And although I am not a black man, I have always been welcomed by and accepted more by minorities, and thus, I know what it’s like to be judged by appearances rather than the content of your character and who you actually are.  I know what it’s like to be stereotyped and written off or mistreated for your mistakes.  I know what it’s like to be held to a different standard while your peers don’t have to meet that same standard.  So I always related to that.  And the way he came in and just electrified the whole franchise, man…  I still think about it often how much it sucks that because of how talented he was, our staff out so much on him and that ultimately cut his career short.  You’re right, there will never be another Cam…  I think Josh Allen is the closest thing we will see for a long time, but Allen is not the running threat Cam was.  Cam could run you over or around you.  That was THE absolute funnest time to watch our team ever.
    • It definitely needs more specificity than is baked in now. 
    • The weirdest encounter I had with a pro athlete was waiting in line at security at Mile High Stadium when I used to get the company suite tickets almost every week because I was the only employee based in Colorado. There's a small checkpoint accessing the suites that virtually no one knows about that you can usually squirt right through. I was standing there and looked over my shoulder and there stands John fuging Elway waiting in line behind me.  This was during the The Golden Calf of Bristol season right before he became GM. I just said "They make YOU go through security?" He's like "Yeah, ain't that a bitch. I literally have a statue out front and I gotta go through security like everybody else." I've heard mixed things about him but he was super nice and down to earth with me that day.
