I have a hard time believing that Tepper will keep Rhule for another year.  It’s like a stock that you bought high and have to sell low.  It stinks to take a loss but makes even less sense to waste more precious time with Rhule.

Should've kept Rivera and let him build out the 3-4 the way he wanted. He bled black and blue and that counts for something. You don't fire people just for the sake of firing them and Rivera was proven to be a good coach. Rivera with Fitterer would've likely enabled us the ability to turn things around.

I just watched Rivera's team get embarrassed harder than any L we have taken this year. neither are the right option, we need an offensive minded HC who has NFL connections that could bring in a competent DC.

Tell me again why Tepper is supposed to know football? Because he owned a miniscule amount of the Steelers and had no say as to what that organization did. The Rhule contract might look good on paper in the business world, who knows. But I have a feeling we have an owner that has no clue about the game.

To me, fault lies with Fitterer. He needs to take control better. But he's ONLY been a scout really. He was VP of the Seahawks for a year. A ... year. He played football, but was much more successful as a baseball pitcher.

I'd like to place my chips in the Dan Morgan basket ...   but that's not a thing yet. Yet.

I’m sorry but it was time for Rivera to go too, it’s not like he’s setting the world on fire with the no name team. He isn’t take anyone else to a SB, it was most definitely time to move on.

If attendance in the 4th quarter last game is any indication of next year he's actually losing more in the long run keeping Rhule than just eating the contract and moving on. Get Pederson or equivalent and get the young guys good coaching while they're still on cheap contracts

      He was so much fun to watch as a player but is a prototypical example of the old "never meet your heroes" adage. Great player, not a great guy.

      Does Bryce deserve credit for game-winning drives?

      By Basbear · Posted

      Look.... if us BY "haters" give credit about his GWDs...... Will the BY stans also have honest discussion about the 55minutes before the last 5 in which BY has put up 9/20 for 78 yards 0 TDs???

      Hubbard says he might have rushed back

      By Pantherxtreme · Posted

      The way they are handling now is how they should have handled it from the start instead of that you get a series, you a get a series. Let Chuba spell until he had some of his step back.  We definitely could have put a better showing against Buffalo and their weak run defense had we employed the same game plan we did against Green Bay. Saints were determined to stop the run and make Bryce beat them, Atlanta had similar plan and the coaches and Bryce were able to respond.  Rico although didnt have the best rushing game was vital in the passing game and his catch and run help get us into the redzone there at the end of regulation probably should have been a touchdown that out of bounds was a judgement call it wasn't conclusive and thus should have went with the original call on the field.  Roco brings that dawg to the offense that it shorely lacked up until Miami game. Interesting it was his call that help seal the win for us, glad the coaches were listening. Hope they can get a deal done and run it back next year.
