Rhule's pitch to Tepper

When things go bad you usually have to explain to your boss how you are going to fix it.

Here is the pitch by Rhule I can imagine:

Defense played good at times.

Defense is young, should get better.

Horn, a 1st round pick, will be back.

CMC will be healthy.

Sam will be healthy.  Showed some promise early in the season before getting hurt.  Extra year in system.

All we have to do is fix the offensive line and we have a top 10 pick in a draft that looks really good for OTs, plus some cap space that could also address the line.

I'm not saying this is the best route, I can just see this happening.

Long term it might not be the worse outcome.  If it doesn't work out Rhule and Sam are probably gone.  The next coach can come in and hopefully will have some pieces to build around, maybe a better offensive line.

Worst case is we spend a bunch of resources on another QB that doesn't work out and then Rhule gets fired and the next coach comes into a depleted situation.

Like I said earlier, I definitely don't think this is the best outcome, just one that is possible

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
