Fire Rhule

Still want to give him another season to see where we are at. Playing the coaching roulette game never works for franchises. I feel like you have to give them 3 years unless they are like 0-3 wins bad the first 2 years.

We are 5-6. How about we let the season finish before calling for heads?

Pretty much this. I remember thinking pre-riverboat Ron was in over his head after blowing a last minute lead in Atlanta early in 2012. I’d have understood him being fired on the spot that day, but obviously patience paid off in that situation. 
 

Funny how we try to (or are at least told to) wait 3 years to evaluate players, but we think coaches should reach their potential in their first year and a half. Rhule will at least match the win total from last year and I doubt we lose out. So there’s been progress. But he obviously isn’t there yet. 
 

My opinion means nothing but from what Tepper said when he hired him I’d be surprised if he’s ready to give up on him already. 
 

Not saying Rhule is gonna be great. Just saying I don’t think you can grade him completely yet.

How is this on Rhule? So he wasted a timeout; it's not the first time. Rivera would waste timeouts, too. That didn't cost us the game.

We had a QB we signed 10 days ago playing a great game and the effort was certainly there on offense and special teams.

Unfortunately, the defense laid an egg. I still am MUCH more optimistic coming off this loss than I was coming off the win over Atlanta a few weeks ago because the defense isn't going to play this poorly on a regular basis. 

On the other hand, we actually have a real NFL-caliber starting QB, which we haven't been able to say in a long while.

The NFL adjusts every week. If you don't add a wrinkle they're going to gash you.

3-4, may have been requested by ownership but we've already seen this movie.

3-4 lost Dom Capers job for him. John Fox came in and went back to 4-3 for a reason.

Not a fan of that defense. I love our players but there being schemed wrong.

Get some hog mollies and stop it. Undersized, is a weakness in the NFL. Can't scheme around that.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
