7 winning seasons. It's always been this way. This isn't a perennial contender year in and year out and until that changes this is what you get it's no different for other franchises in similar circumstances.

 

It is the 2nd year of a rebuild. That other stuff does not apply anymore. Judge Rhule on Rhule, not by past regimes.

I'm not worried about Rhule until the players give up on him.  Last week was not a good look, but I expect to see a reaction this week.  It's ok to lose, it's not ok to lose without a fight.

Uh in case you missed it last week, Ruhle’s team got curb stomped by one of the worst teams in the league playing their backups and was out coached by some idiot meathead who will probably be fired and lost to one of the worst starting QBs in the NFL. When do you anticipate the players giving up?

I don’t believe a word of it. Even if he is telling the truth. If he wants to leave in 3 months he will. If he isn’t fired. 

has a coach ever been asked about other jobs/opportunies and claimed he was committed to his present job...and then left?  I tend to think I might heard of that happening maybe once...or maybe a million times. 

non-story for me.  Rhule said what any coach would say in that spot.  Regardless of what they were or weren't thinking about.

Basically the huddle any time he says anything at this point

sad but it is what it is

How many NFL coaches have gave a speech midsession about not going back to college only to do the exact opposite a month or two later?

I still remember Bonnie Bernstein putting the screws to Roy Williams at Kansas in the middle of a tourney run and his exact quote was “I don’t give a damn about North Carolina right now” only to be named the head coach at Carolina weeks later.

Yeah I agree completely wtf did you expect him to say?

When people see the same mistakes there will always be comparisons and complaints. It happened with Rivera too and he got way more grief from this fanbase. It's too early to start being dramatic about this only a handful of folks want Rhule to be fired.

But the voices in some dudes head told that Cowherd show dude that it’s happening.

Joel Klatt, a respected and revered football reporter and former player did not pull this out of his wazoo on a nationally syndicated sports talk show. 
He heard it from somewhere he finds credible.

    • Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.
    • What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.
