I wonder if I can train one of my horses to do this to Rhule:

[TANTRIC-NINJA]

Either Rhule is using the "I just don't test well" argument" or a 5-12 season where we are not even competetive in games is what "working" looks like for him.

We must be tanking because that’s the only thing working rn.

We are now living the nightmare I was worried about at the end of last season. 

And everyone was like, "There's no way we're letting a guy out just two seasons into his seven year contract." Now, we're all praying that we will see the end of this mess.

Now, my big worry at the end of this season is that you were all right and that Tepper won't fire him after just two years.

Sad days, indeed.

Maybe Tepper has adopted some of that Rhule reverse psychology and what he thinks is a vote of confidence will actually be a pink slip.

this guy is so lame. john fox is sitting on the couch rn and i would take him in a heartbeat if it meant rhule was out the door

Matt Rhule is simply out of his depth.  We don't need a cheerleader, we need a HC.

John Fox would have this team in the playoffs by his second season.

Tepper is gonna have to swallow the very bitter pill that he got duped.

Tepper hired Rhule because his wife made good meatballs during their meeting in Texas! That's the only rational reason I can come up with.

It would be poetic justice if Dave Tepper ends up praising Matt Rhule just before he fires him.

True

The one good thing I see is that Rhule did not get assurance from Tepper that he'd be back next season.

There seems to be at least a possibility that Tepper could be weighing options.

It is working like a Mississippi leg hound. If he digs into you, it’s best to just let him finish.

We are going to see what kind of owner we have as well.  I worry his ego is the most important thing and he won't be able to admit that Rhule is just not that guy and we'll suffer another season because he can't admit HE made the wrong choice.   We are talking about someone that bought his old boss's home just to demolish it and build a new one where it was.  

The money?  The money is literally peanuts to this guy if he fires Rhule.  I believe he's the richest owner in the NFL.  Millions is nothing for this guy.  His family is set for generations so he's basically just playing around right now owning an NFL team.  If he doesn't move on from Rhule it's because of ego factors in my opinion.
