That’s the thing.  Apparently he’s already embarrassed, but it’s surprising that our floundering, pathetic team isn’t enough for him to pull the trigger.  What more humiliation does he need?  We suck ass.  Rhule stole his brass balls and is playing with house money 

The thing that really bothers me with this even more than it usually would, is that this article comes out acknowledging Tepper is embarrassed and such, but then just 2 weeks ago, Tepper felt moved enough by that fan's sign asking for Rhule to be fired that he asked them "what they were drinking?" 

I have a hard time reconciling that guy with one who is embarrassed of Rhule.

True.  I think he really is seething inside.  He made this big purchase to buy a team, he’s always been the head honcho in his professional life, he fires the old guy and gets enamored with Big Rhule.  And what does he get?  A steaming pile of poo.  Some people say he only cares about soccer, but he’s a guy not used to losing.  I have no idea what’s in store for the future but how he handles this will tell us a lot.

Rhule…

Also, if Tepper does in fact move on he should get some credit.  Gotta get a pro coach in here next

Matt Rhule more like Matt Fool 

But seriously this is much worse than I imagined I wonder if Joe Person's expose' will force Tepper's hand 

I wonder if Tepper asked him to write it for cover knowing he intends to can Rhule.

Could be why we’re getting blown out on a regular basis… guys don’t like their HC it will show on the field. 
 

Id like to know what Cam REALLY thinks about him.

G-Rhule is half a ham samich, a bar in Ohio filled with inebriated revellers and a moment's indiscretion caught on camera away from being the Carolina version of Jacksonville's Urban Decay...

I don’t need to be a billionaire for either of these things.

Only way Rhule can survive a 3rd year is by trading our picks and star players for Deshaun Watson, and replacing half the team with Baylor/Temple guys, doubling down on the reports already. 

Which sadly, I can see being his plan to build our "program". Cult like following from "vets" as new draft picks arrive, everyone drinking the Kool-Aid, yikes.

I just can't see Watson waiving his no trade clause to come here. If he wasn't willing to do it before Rhule proved to be an unmitigated disaster, I don't see why he's be willing to do it after.

I didn’t click the link but is there any clarification on the autograph story

He isn't.  We're basically the NFC Texans as far as organizational disfunction.  The exact thing he's trying to escape.

One thing that may change his calculus is Tua's improvement and Miami's dramatic turnaround. I don't know if Tua will ultimately be their long-term answer, but I could definitely see them cooling significantly on feeling the need to swing a massive trade for Watson given the second half of their season.

Why would an established player come to a franchise with a coach on his last legs ?  If Rhule gets fired the next year it's an entirely new coaching staff that may or may not want Watson.  So no way he comes here at this point.
