The guy who had final say on that roster turnover was Matt Rhule.

Sure.  I dont think there were a huge amount of mistakes though.  He inherited an old team at the very start of a rebuild.  Hes definitely made mistakes for sure but it can take time to learn how to be a head coach in the NFL I would imagine.

Building an offensive line around "versatility" was a massive mistake.

I jus don’t understand the power running comment. No back we have is a power runner. This team is lost. 

Lol, I didn't catch that. Lol. What foolishness.

The power run game is built in the off-season. 

They don't have the staff to accomplish power running in the NFL.

Clueless.

The writing was on the wall for Brady .  When Rhule stated that we were going to be a run first team and Brady did not get the message , he was in trouble .  During the press conference Rhule stated that he would evaluate the players and coaches .  Brady was sent packing .  We will see if this makes a difference or not .  Fitts will be looking for a new OC and perhaps a new head coach if the team does not start to look improved .

I think I misread, the quote was a “heavy running game” meaning run the ball a lot. Not necessarily up the middle 30 times.

Don’t think the hire is Fitts call

Exactly right. Should've been done after the Miami game, giving the next OC 2 weeks to implement their scheme in.

I doubt they will be able to make wholesale changes over what these guys have been working on for months. Most likely, you'll see the same plays, but with a heavier run/pass balance. Run, Run, Pass, Punt.

Edit to add: against a team like TB, who is great against the run, that's... not a great plan.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
