David Tepper gave Matt Rhule a 7 year $62m contract. Rhule never beat a ranked team as head coach of the Baylor football team.

Don't forget that Rhule was going to accept the jets job, but the jets backed out when Rhule said he was going to only bring his college staff and wouldn't allow the jets to make any input on his assistant coaches because Rhule wanted his guys. Let it sink it that THE JETS where smart enough to see that it was a bad idea so much so that they chose ADAM GASE who already failed as the coach of the dolphins. They chose a coach that they got to see fail fist hand over Rhule and his guys.

Rhule and Gase are both frauds.

Two total wins vs. ranked opponents in college. Both at Temple. The two teams? Navy and ECU. Both dropped from the rankings after losing to Temple on their way to .500ish seasons.

I brought up this concern when we hired Rhule. I was roundly criticized and mocked because Tepper made wealthy people even wealthier by moving money around so he couldn't possibly fail at building a dominant football organization. 😂

Who here was actually excited by the hire in the first place? I never understood it or bought in. I figured people knew something I didn’t when it came to Rhule 

A lot of people were excited. I made a thread right after Rhule was hired saying that nepotism would torpedo the Rhule era before it started because he’s so unqualified to be an NFL head coach he needed NFL veteran coaches to guide him along. I was reamed in that thread. Everyone agrees with me now though LOL

I remember there being excitement, but I just never understood why. Now I know it’s because a lot of people here don’t know what the fug they are talking about

He got outcoached by Tom f*cking Herman

I had a little league basketball coach who literally just told us "you gotta believe, boys!" constantly and his play calls consisted of numbers corresponding to the positions. Like "124" means the PG is supposed to pass to the SG who passes to the PF who shoots. This is to occur no matter what the defense is doing. It took the first opposing coach about a half to figure this out. Our goose was cooked from that point on.

Anyway... long story short... that mouth breathing moron could coach circles around Fatt Rhule.

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
