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

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:

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.

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
