They'll be replaced by Rhule's Temple and Baylor boiz for sure, the whole gang's getting together for an epic 0-17 party

Blackburn's assistant (Ed Foley) was Rhule's ST coach at Baylor.

On the DL side, Rhule could promote pass rush specialist Don Johnson or conceivably his old Temple player Terrance Knighton, though Knighton would be kind of a surprise because he's extremely underqualified.

OL Coach is arguably the most important choice here. There are very highly regarded options out there in Mike Munchak and Juan Castillo, but Rhule could settle for just promoting Tony's Sparano Jr or calling on former OL assistant Marcus Satterfield if he wanted to come back to the NFL.

Dude's other resume items included the 2019 Chargers who were the worst OL in the league that year as well. 

We had an option to go after former Packers OL coach James Campen but chose Meyer for...reasons 😕

Campen ended up going to Houston and, from what I've read, doing a great job there.

At what point, though, do we not just expect Foley at ST coach and Knighton or Johnson on DL (esp. Knighton, since if he's not qualified his odds of getting the job skyrocket), and let's just go ahead and pencil in Sparano, because that's a lock

I think the new OC will have a big hand in it.

    • These kickers are getting so good
    • They're pretty far off, double T-Mac's stats to get to the same targets as XL and it would be 4 drops to 7.  A 3 drop difference might not sound like a lot, but it's still almost twice as many drops on the same number of targets. Not to mention, if I remember correctly, XL's drop problems last year seemed more down field, where he was dropping passes he should be making and it was clear his poor hands were there reason he dropped them. And weren't both of T-Mac's drops this year on quick hitters with blockers out in front of him?  I know at least the second one was as he was going to go for a huge play and maybe a TD on it. To me, and yes, I'd say this about any other player, those are drops because a rookie was trying to do too much in making a play before securing the catch.  Much easier to improve upon than dropping passes because you have bricks for hands and body catch more often than hands catch, like with XL. And yes, 100%, which is why I wasn't one of those people you were referring to with talking about him that way last year.  Yes, I said he had drop problems., because he did, but I didn't think they were unsolvable and expected to see great improvement this year (unfortunately not sure that happened though).
    • Every iffy call has gone the way of the Chiefs tonight, per usual. They had a TD earlier tonight that looked like obvious offensive pass interference and the flag was throw but picked up.
