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

I mailed it in for any future success when he was hired. Rhule has not proven me wrong.

 

This was one of those times I wanted to be proved wrong. I expected to lose week in and week out with Rhule as he gets outcoached every week. I thought maybe he figured it out early this season, but his college tendencies stood out and the rest of the NFL figured him out with a few games to see Darnold play in his system.

Tepper is a terrible owner, has done not one thing for the football side of this franchise that has been a positive.  I’m not sure he is capable at this point.  He was just part of the good ole boy network and was awarded a team for that reason alone.

Watching him waste millions of dollars on his terrible decisions is both hilarious, sad, and reflects what a messed up society we live in.

I never got the excitement with Rhule. A lot of us pointed this out when we first hired him. Dude got outcoached by some bad college coaches. Not to mention blew a fuggin 28-3 lead against Oklahoma when Jalen Hurts straight sh*tted on his team in the 2nd half (no wonder we didn't draft Hurts, Rhule was still too salty about that game) and then proceeded to lose yet again to them a month later. Rhule has NEVER shown he could beat ranked teams in college, and Tepper just ups and gives him a top 10 contract.

The story of Hurney and Tepper meeting Rhule at his house in Waco is a very weird story.

Judge had Danny Jones out their running routes and catching passes against us. That should have been the end of Rhule right there.

    • I mean, if Moore really wants out, then it would behoove the Bears to make it happen sooner than later. X is a lot younger and cheaper, and may be a better fit for Johnson's musings than a disgruntled, unnecessary, overpaid vet. If they can dump his salary and maybe get a fourth or so in return, it may be worth it to them. As for development, I'm not concerned. You're talking about a seeming bust, a day three guy and a UDFA. They are developing relative to their ceilings. I doubt any of them will ever command the coverage, money, or the respect that Moore has acquired. He's a tier above them. Yes, even X. 
    • IMO, if Ceedee plays against us, the game probably goes the other way. Same with Tyreek Hill and the Dolphins. Our team just isn't designed to beat teams with two high level receivers like that. But when you look at the league, how many teams really have two guys of that caliber?  There's nothing wrong with defensive adjustments, but sometimes I think a lot of fans want Evero to call a different play like a game on madden, and defensive football just isn't like that. That said, I thought we did a much better job this season against the Cowboys of flipping Jaycee and at least making them work for it, opposed to last season when they literally just lined CeeDee up on the other side of the field every single snap.  For us to just straight up switch to consistent man coverage, or a different zone, or whatever, we likely would consistently need different personnel on the field. Doing it a few times a game is a gamble and can work, but if we consistently run man coverage against the Cowboys, eventually a RB is going to beat a linebacker, or something of that nature with our personnel. Part of the reason Evero likes this scheme is that, while we have our defaults and presets, what we do is very multiple, and you can do a lot of different things pre and post snap. We are a challenging defense to read. But as you said, if guys are getting beat, it doesn't really matter what you call.
