I agree completely, and no I don't trust Rhule.

I just distrust him equally regardless of who from our current staff fills in as interim OC.  

There are...were five coaches on staff who had no direct or indirect connection to Matt Rhule. Brady was the highest ranking of them.

The others are Meyer (OL) Angelichio (TEs) Blackburn (ST) and Don Johnson (Pass Rush Specialist, the only defensive coach).

Johnson probably survives. I seriously doubt Meyer does. Blackburn is probably about 50-50, maybe less given that he's got a Baylor guy in line behind him. Angelichio has Gilbride waiting in the wings too so... 😕

Let's not forget that even if brady was good and got a HC job somewhere Rhule would've just promoted Nixon. 

I think Nixon would have been the OC if Tepper didn't want Brady..

Imo Brady was a Tepper hire not a Rhule hire. 

Nixon is Like Snow to Rhule..

Felt like the MAJORITY of the board was not a Brady fan, team makes a move to move on and now you scoff at the replacement as though we can just go out on the street and hire an OC that runs an offense NO ONE in the building knows. 

Ya'll funny, hard enough having Cam learn on the fly, but we supposed to install a new offense in Week 13, the lack of common sense here is overwhelming at times. 

If there's to be a change it will be this off-season, IMO we need a proven play-caller if Rhule is retained, and if anything promote Nixon to Assistance OC if the plan is to groom him, I doubt he proves himself as the interim OC, and it also sounds like it's ''group effort'' among the offensive staff to some degree. 

Either way, this my team so I'll be dialed in.

    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
