I’d be willing to give him a 3rd year if Brady was shown the door and replaced with a better OC and the offensive line is receives a legitimate overhaul in the off-season. If these two obvious flaws are not addressed at the end of the year I doubt I’d watch one game from start to finish next season.

Nah. They've all got to go. Even Snow.

In all honesty a loss today should put Rhule on the hot seat. I know he is most likely here another season, but a loss today would honestly make me really doubt his long term prospects in the NFL. 

should be at the stake levels of hot

Although there's still no viable plan at QB, the offensive line has to be fixed so that we can run the ball next season. Realistically, that is the only way we are going to win with the roster that we have now. Our receivers aren't going to be scaring any defenses and we aren't gonna win through the air at this time.  Run the ball, control the clock and let the defense hold up enough to win. We also need an upgrade at tight end. 

Can Rhule figure this out? I'm very skeptical.

And yes, Brady has to go. He clearly has no feel for an NFL game.

You should know.  It's pretty evident with the lack of upbeat posting after last weeks loss, that the wind has been ripped from our sails.  Mine at least.

No. This is not a professional football team, in any phase of the game.

Our offense sucks from top to bottom. 

Our special teams are always a timebomb, ready to go off at any moment.

Our defense has some statistics, but that's because they haven't averaged out some games at the first of the year when we played against some truly bad offenses. Today, the lowly Miami Dolphins marched at will against us. Last week, the WTFs did as we tried to laugh at how bad we thought Rivera and Heinicke were. Let that sink in. The Giants did it to us, too. 

And a good portion of our problems were the people brought in and drafted by Fitterer. He was so proud of his trades and finds. He is a moron the Seahawks were happy see go.

I don't think the team we have now is any better than the team we had when Rivera left. They are younger but the results are just about the same.

Would Oklahoma or LSU even hire Rhule?

Maybe LSU will hire the Baylor coach and Rhule can go back to Waco.

Rhule ain’t going anywhere unless he gets fired or gets offered more than he’s making now to leave. The latter is bordering on impossible and the former probably isn’t happening this year unless we lose out (here’s hoping).

    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
