Yeah you are right. Ken was a Qb coach for us from 2013-2017. I’m thinking of Whitfield. 

Dang, doesn’t help much, another example of Buffalo taking the good from our organization and them being willing to leave. Thanks for the clarification!

From what I've read, calling Dorsey a "coach" when he was here might be a bit of a stretch.

Rivera and Hurney were scared to say anything negative to Newton, and they passed that down to Dorsey as well.

Since Dorsey became Josh Allen's coach in Buffalo, Allen's development has been phenomenal.

Who knows what Dorsey could have done for Newton if Rivera and Hurney hadn't been dumbasses.

With the changes the NFL made to the interview cycle this year, I sure as hell am.

Eh, it can wait a little over a week.  It's not like we are going to beat the Bucs anyway.  Since the game is at home, Tepper can have a locksmith on hand at halftime to re-key Rhule's office and then tape Matt's pink slip to the door.

"A little over a week" from now is when teams can start interviewing.

If Tepper is even thinking about pulling the trigger, he can start digging now.   This season is over.  No more roster moves of consequence to be made.  Tepper can get Fitts to low-key do some research and begin to build a candidate list. 

Crazy enough, I think Tepper holds onto Rhule because he gave Matt such a large window to rebuild in.  If it were just a 4 or 5 year deal, he could pull the trigger, but on a 7-year deal it makes him look impatient.

Yes, having to go for it on 4th down counts as turnovers. They brought that up earlier. We lost 9 points that way and gave up two scores on those drives.

 

that’s a 23 point swing

You know what Rhule was talking about last week and what I'm referencing here. They lost their placekicker, not a punter, so the defense still gave up that many points. There weren't interceptions/fumbles that gave short fields. Don't be pedantic.

Keeping him around to watch him produce another season like this makes him look like a dumbass.

Not that I am trying to be correct, but just for information purposes…

I don't disagree at all, but firing Rhule only two years into a seven-year deal has egg all Tepper's face.  He's got a choice, give Rhule a year three and hope he improves or  pulls a Jacksonville by chalking up the loss now, optics be damned.

The egg that's currently on his face is his own fault for being stupid enough to hire a minor college coach and give him absolute power over an NFL franchise.

Compound that mistake by giving him another year and the "egg" turns into something worse.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
