Matt Rhule: "We have to double down on our approach"

Nothing to double down on at all - I think our defense could be fine with another solid interior defensive lineman if Brown is truly going to be an average to above average lineman (he's shown glimpses of being able to and does get doubled quite a bit) and some REAL coaches who can get the most out of these guys with adjustments game to game and in game.  Snow's D worked fine for the first 3-5 weeks of the season and now teams have seen what we are doing and picking us apart.  I think part of it is the team has checked out on the coaches.

Offensive side is a complete fluster cuck.  We have maybe one real NFL o-lineman who isn't playing as well as he has in the past.  CMC is glass the last two years, our receivers aren't playing hard and can't catch all of a sudden and we don't have the answer to our QB issue as well.  We have what I thought were some good skill guys but I don't know what has happened to them....have they given up, don't respect the coaching? 

Can't change that o-line now, heads should roll.......

Kunkel with the humble brag that former players text him.  However, we are all embarrassed by the quit in this team.

I like to know if the former players are Rivera players like Davis or Tre. If so they probably have some inside info on the locker room, meaning this is actually worse than we though.

I don't want a hands on owner, but at this point give me Tepper making some decisions for Rhule. 

I mean honestly, what good decisions has Rhule made since he's been here? Even the ones we thought were positives for a while (Snow, defense) are regressing. That falls on leadership. Stop with the coach speak and fix it or GTFO before we lose next year's team during this one. Next year's training camp slogan going to be "Hey guys I REALLY mean "DBO" this year!"?

    • XL could easily be the last dog at the bowl for WR production next year.  That could leave him around 200-300 yards which would be disastrous.
    • Well sure, that's where the disconnect is then. If Thielen only gets 300-400 yards and T-Mac is healthy for the full season, then I'm with you guys, in that scenario there is absolutely zero excuse for him to not put up over 1,000 yards.   In fact, I'll let you double that, if Thielen has only 600 yards, then again, my expectations are for T-Mac to surpass the 1k mark with ease. But his game has never been about his physical abilities, so even if he loses a half a step, he's still the same player who is a savvy route runner who will get open and Bryce will continue to find him due to their chemistry.  Particularly since Bryce isn't a QB who forces things, he takes what the defense gives him.  So when teams focus on T-Mac and Thielen is more free to find those holes in the defense than he has the last two years, I don't think Bryce is going to ignore him. If someone wants to argue for T-Mac getting to 1,000 yards, personally, I'd say those yards would be far more likelier to come from XL and Coker than Thielen.  And that has nothing to do with XL or Coker, but that I'm still a firm believer in Thielen being able to still get 50-60 yards a game, again, particularly as he'll have less defensive attention on him than in either of his 2 seasons with us so far. Just because T-Mac is our #1 of the future who will have the ball forced to him at times, doesn't mean he needs to be forced into that role from day 1 when we have 3 very legitimate WR options next to him. Let the rookie grow into the role and the NFL game, we have that ability to do so because of Thielen, XL, and Coker.
    • Spot on. He's only 20 and his height 6'2 and weight 230lbs might make him more of an off-ball LB possibility. He's a multi-year project
