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

We really have downgraded from Ron Rivera. Oy vey...

Always knew that was a possibility but hoped it wouldn't be the case. Unfortunately, looking like Gettleman chose poorly. Really need to get some folks with credible NFL experience more involved with this football operation, and perhaps Fitterer and Morgan were the start of that.

He needs to fire Joe Brady - the dude is out of his depth.

Rhule needs to follow him out the door. He's also out of his depth. The staff is who we feared they were. A mid-level P5 college coaching staff that never actually beat anyone worth a poo in college.

Rhule has always been smart enough to jump ship right when there were starting to be some actual expectations. He's just not gonna make it to that point here.

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. 

No all of Rons former players absolutely love him.  I don't think any of Matt's current players even like him on a personal level.

Yeah, he did.

I'm not sure what part of this process looks "right".

what measure is he using to decide of the process is right? nothing is working. what does work one week won't for the next 2 or 3. i just don't understand.

Like I said before, Tepper needs to force Rhule to make changes or he's gone. Sounding like Rhule will choose to be fired instead. Things are shaping up that way.

It makes sense that he wouldn’t change staff when he knows he might need them at his next college stop.

    • We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.
    • This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together. 
    • Nope. No balling out but he could latch on as a backup elsewhere. I still think he would be the weak link on a ridiculously loaded team that would create problems in the Playoff and while facing other really good teams. His limitations are just to much at this level. I have zero fear of playing him in the future. It's a litmus test for the D, granted the D is pretty awful currently so none needed.
