Pro Football Talk on Matt Rhule

Recommended Posts

Decent summation of the difference between college and NFL, though fairly obvious.  In the end, the risk didn't work out, so should Rhule still get the rewards of a high $ contract?  If Tepper can upgrade, I think he will, no matter the cost.

For sure. I certainly don't think he's capable of coaching this team to competitiveness anymore.

Honestly, the results this team has week-in and week-out illustrate that the players hate him. Sure, I'll leave out his Temple and Baylor yes-men, some of whom (read: nearly all) are here because they lack the qualifications to be in the NFL without his assistance.

If this teams loses down the stretch and goes 5-12 or even 6-11 and Tepper doesn't fire Rhule Tepper is an idiot. 

For the remaining five games I forecast -  Game 1. Atlanta Loss -  Game 2. Buffalo Loss -  Game 3. Tampa Bay Loss -  Game  4. New Orleans Toss Up - Game 5. Tampa Bay Win, only if they rest their starters.

If corrrect it would mean we lose at least 3 or 4 of the 5 remaining games, with a question mark pertaining to Tampa Bay, our last game.

Dude you have no clue what a billionaire and NFL owner is going to do. 

neither do you, to be fair.

But I believe it's safer to assume he fires him after the season is done than during this season.

...and that's IF he fires him at all.

 

I do think Rhule's seat is going to be very warm next season if he's still here, though...contract or no contract.

I don’t think the Bucs will rest their starters. Packers and Cardinals will likely be right on their heels for the rest of their season.

If Tepper decides Rhule doesn't have what it takes, he will not hesitate to fire him. I personally believe Rhule is a dead man walking unless we go 4-1 or 5-0 to close out the season.

He should be ‘dead man walking!

as for DT, what is there to decide?   He failed for two years straight at the two most positions in football 

That right there is egregious enough. We have a questionable DT from 2020. A CB in and a WR sho was a healthy scratch 

both of those years had good OTs and QBs with promise 

I am done with Tepper and if I was writing checks for that clown, I’d be really really done l

I've said it a few times recently. Both seasons look eeriely similar. Promising start followed by a faceplant a few games in and no ability to adapt and recover. I think they're right. It's just college coaches doing college coaching. They think they can simply out-execute everyone else. Scheming? Nah. We do what we do. We just have to execute better. That's probably why Rhule couldn't beat good college teams either. When he ran into more talented teams in college he lost. When he runs into teams that have a few games of film to study at the NFL level, he loses more often than not. Phil Snow has floated this turd. He's the only coach on this staff who has somewhat impressed me schematically.

Think things have decent odds of snowballing if we lose to Atl.

Book is out on how to destroy our O.  Everyone after Atl has the D to do it.   All can stop the run.   

Brady threw for 400 yards the last game of the season last year.  Good luck to Arians getting him to sit.

    • Rico walking is no big deal. I'll take a healthy 2024 Hubbard over Rico any time and losing Mays is, again, no a big deal.  Young is signed for what, $35M for the next two years? Say he wants $50M but the FO doesn't. If they put the franchise tag on him, that would be around $55? So basically they are getting Young for the next 3 years for an average of $30M per year. Putting the franchise tag on him wouldn't be my first choice but it gives them an option that wouldn't be locking him into a long term, $50M contract. I'm not suggestion they do that. Just that the option will be there should they get to that point. Hunt is on a 5 year deal which is done in 28 so he either restructures or is gone anyway. Moton will be 35 by then and will either be gone or have diminished playing time. Neither of those players has anything to do with getting Young a contract. The O line is way overpaid anyway. Hopefully by the time they are gone, Freeling and Hecht will be developed and Ickey will be healthy. Young was benched his second year and only got his job back because Dalton was injured. Not sure how you can call that entitled. And I would NOT say putting a rookie QB on a team with no receivers, tight ends or O lineman and then being put with a coach who never wanted you and is fired mid season, is a definition of luck. As far as competition, no team is going to bring in competition for a QB picked first overall - especially given the capital that was given up to get him.  
    • With apologies to Lady Cowboy fan, any day we can screw over the Cowboys is a GOOD day…
