What Happens If We Strike Out on a Legit OC Hire?

Truth is regardless of who we hire, my feelings towards them and the team are going to continue to be "meh" until Rhule is fired. 

I won't allow myself to get pissed off anymore but this crap team or get excited when we have an ok draft and pick up a few decent FAs or win a couple games early in the season. 

Regardless of what happens we're going to keep winning just a enough games to get us a top 5-10 pick every year as long as Rhule is here. 

He's more interested in trying to build his "culture" (whatever the hell that is) than win.

Hue Jackson is out there somewhere. We probably could do worse, but damn it’ll be challenging.  Rhule’s bottom of the barrel.  I’m surprised I haven’t heard Hackett’s name much.  If Green Bay somehow keeps him after this year and we finally get rid of Rhule next season, ohh wee mayne.  That would make it worthwhile 

He’s got interviews already lined up with 3 teams already, definitely one of the hottest names out there. Jacksonville and Chicago are two of them meaning he’d either get to work with Lawrence or Fields. I’d think Jacksonville would make sense with him having made Blake Bortles look good.

Aww, fug.  I saw Jax was mostly looking at retreads like BoB and Pederson.  My parade has been rained on

Could this be the wake up call Tepper needs though? When Rhule comes asking for elite OC money for some trash candidate, probably his buddy Nixon?

I can only hope so.

I figured there would be a big fuss about the OC only to be left wondering who tf this guy is and where he came from.

If we can't convince a good OC to coach under Rhule, then you gotta just get rid of Rhule and bring in someone who can convince some decent coordinators to come with. It'll be interesting to see how many OC's turn the job down and how many FA's bail. Tepper won't be able to turn a blind eye to that kinda stuff

I don't know how we could strike out with Rhule here as head coach. I'd imagine every interview would start with:

 

"Look, I could go coach any college in the US, I don't have to be here because I'm highly sought after and the best coach of the generation. If you come here I'm the top dog, you'll help out where I see fit. So what do you think?"

 

Boom! Hired by this visionary of a coach

I feel that Tepper is smart enough to make sure the OC that is hired will be such a high caliber  football person he could take over the team if Rhule is ousted, which would be a win-win sitution.. 

I will admit that Tepper has made and allowed Rhule to make some glaring mistakes. I hope he has learned from these mistakes and will not make another one by allowing the wrong OC to be hired.

I can't see Rhule not trying to interfere as much as possible to convince Tepper to take another yes man. At that point Rhule would just be doing more harm than good, it's not even about the team to him it seems like

I wouldn't be so sure. He's fumbled every step of the way.

      ARTICLE: Rams paid a big price in trade with Panthers to move up 13 spots for Braden Fiske

      By WarPanthers89 · Posted

      Article:  The Rams must love rookie defensive lineman Braden Fiske, because they paid the Panthers a fortune to move up in the second round and draft him. To move up from No. 52 to No. 39 and draft Fiske, the Rams gave up the 155th overall pick in this year’s draft, as well as the Rams’ second-round pick in next year’s draft. That’s a rare price to pay, for a move up of just 13 spots in the second round. In fact, according to Seth Walder of ESPN Analytics, the Rams overpaid by the most any team has overpaid to move up on Day Two of the draft in at least the last six years. Ultimately, the Rams used two second-round picks and a fifth-round pick on Fiske. That’s a lot to spend. For the Panthers, it’s a great deal that nets them a second-round pick next year in addition to Jonathon Brooks, the running back the Panthers drafted after making another trade that packaged the two picks they got from the Rams. The Panthers didn’t have a 2025 second-round pick, having shipped it to Chicago in last year’s Bryce Young trade, but now they have a second-round pick after making a good trade on Friday. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/rams-paid-a-big-price-in-trade-with-panthers-to-move-up-13-spots-for-braden-fiske

      Panthers Select Chau Smith-Wade DB - Round 5, Pick 157

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah I don’t think I’d like this guy outside, he doesn’t fit that in the NFL.  I think he needs to stick to nickel and ST to help the defense, he’d probably contribute. I think he’d be a liability outside. I like him okay though, looking forward to seeing him.  Actually that is probably how I feel about all the picks, I like them okay and am looking forward to seeing them. I feel like they were taken for a good reason; though I may not see it yet. One shouldn’t expect to go straight down the line hit every one, butI think we’ll hit on a couple of guys in this group. 4 would be great.

      Panthers Select Xavier Legette WR - Pick 32, Round 1

      By rayzor · Posted

      i know, but to a degree to can still apply, imo. yes, the guy is a unicorn. crazy circumstances and situations i think kept him away from opportunity to prove themselves for a longer period of time. and in that he and cam are similar. cam took a couple years before he was put in a situation to show what he could do given then opportunity. same wit XL. different circumstances, for sure, but really they were drafted based on one one year of production where they looked dominant. does that mean he's going to be the cam newton of WRS? probably not.  one of the arguments against cam was that he had only one year of "real" production at a high level and those arguments were furthered by the lack of people who had transitioned into a legit starter after so little starting experience.  they were/are both unicorns.
