Quality of NFL coaching and how Rhule stacks up against Louis Riddick's criteria

[jayboogieman]

I saw this on PTI this evening and I thought it might be interesting to see how others think Matt Rhule stacks up. If you don't want to watch the clip, here are the three areas they discussed a little:

Credibility: Can you be trusted? Example: when you say how something, is that how it's going to be in public and private?

Competency: Are you competent in how you setup your program, select players, and develop them?

Positive Impact: How you impact others in and outside football, in their daily lives, etc.

Riddick thinks Mike Tomlin is one of the best at fulfilling his criteria.

For me, I think Rhule fails at credibility. From the way he talked up running the ball a couple weeks ago(they didn't run much) to how he talks up players only to get rid of them, he has shown you cannot believe what he says.

Competency isn't looking too good either. Especially when it comes to the offensive side of things. His choices in QBs and linemen leave a lot to be desired.

Positive Impact? That one remains to be seen. He's impacting the lives of some of his former Temple and Baylor players well by giving them jobs, but haven't seen anything beyond that.

Here's the clip:

IMO, he is suspect on the first two but on the surface seems to be doing well on #3.

Good coaches tend to have good QBs....

...and "smart" he is not

Matt Rhule and the GM have built the team up especially on defense.  Its been 2 years with an amazing amount of injuries.  Next season this team will be ready.  Truly believe this.

That'll depend on what they do about the Oline and QB. Their track record isn't good on that front so far. It'll also depend on if they actually call plays to suit their roster and not try to ram square pegs into round holes.

I am not ready to say Sam is terrible.  Personally I like him.  If this team is whole with all our weapons and a decent OL I like our chances.  I want to see us with a decent OL.
