We're not talking about just flaming out in terms of losing games.

In McAdoo you've got a guy who totally lost the locker room and had multiple players actively speaking out about how bad he was.

Okay, I'm mainly just stubbornly playing devil's advocate at this point: but there's a non-zero probability that one of those players speaking out was OBJ.

Because Rhule is trying to win and will use resources and give contracts that will impact us after he is gone. 

Yeah, I don’t get this totally counter-rational (even naive) thought that another season under Rhule will somehow be played in a vacuum.

That somehow Rhule will just stand back and do nothing and won’t bother making “improvements” (as he sees them) to the team using present and future draft/financial capital.

That somehow good ol’ Chubby Tepper is going to step in and NOT allow the failed coach and fry-cook he’s chosen to support make these moves.

That somehow the power given by Tepper to Rhule to run the team was just a hand-shake agreement between two fry-cook buddies and not contractual. (Spoiler alert: Its very very likely its contractual.)

And that, after another year of Rhule Rack and Ruin with accompanying depletion of team resources, the Carolina job will somehow be easier and MORE attractive after next year.

That’s some Grade A, pie-in-the-sky self-delusion there.

fug, i just remembered, he benched eli. but he did get that right. he might have the toughness we need to put rhule in check, as well. just don't hand him the keys.

Funny you posted this today. The Athletic just published a really long article on the Giants incompetence over the last decade.

The decision to bench Manning seemed to be spurred by John Mara. Here are some things that stood out from that article.

Then there's this harbinger:

Saying mcAdoo is the best rhule can do isn’t a glowing endorsement. He’s trash. I’d rather go with pep Hamilton tbh.

Mcadoo is the best he can do because guys like Pep aren't returning his calls. This one is probably a favor through Coughlin, his only NFL connection

We are so worried about an OC, what are we doing to fix the defense?

The D is supposed to be our calling card but teams routinely ran all over us. 

A new OC is not going to fix the problems with this team. 

Sustained offensive drives and less bad field position would be the best help for our defense.  I also think they still finished as a top 5 defense in a lot of metrics even with those factors.

    • That argument could be used for actual trolls. “If you don’t like it find somewhere else to post” is just silly. Some of us are just letting you know, you are sounding like a broken record on these threads. It’s just some constructive criticism. You don’t have to change your ways. I doubt you will. Just wanted to make sure you were aware. Feel free to deflect and use one of those GIFs again. 
    • It went from he has to jump to he has to bend his hips. That’s changing it. I showed you clips of him throwing deep without jumping which means he doesn’t always have to. I liked and like Stroud better so I’m not really a Bryce defender. Just think you don’t have to make up things when critiquing our QB like he has to jump to throw it deep. There is plenty of ammo there without those exaggerations. Oh yeah the “you don’t know ball” argument. Classic. 
    • I get the rookie QB formula and fully expected to see it implemented. Oh well. For the run game there was no or very little under center stuff until a good ways into the year. At least that is how I am remembering it. And no deep throwing - so stacked boxes which you can say chicken or egg on why.  Hard to run like that.  The QB that people said was so great was pulled for a designated Hail Mary thrower. That’s pretty unusual. And may speak to why we saw few deep balls in some part, along with the OL. To ignore that stuff means you aren’t working with all of the information when you try to mentally model or project what it might be like on the field.  Me, I have a slice of hope that he could maybe be NFL average but getting him to be a plus type of QB is a huge job. It depends on designing the playbook with certain values at the foundation that have to be adhered to first . You have to integrate the other pieces around this one guy’s skill set because he is a real outlier. And he has to learn the under center skill set. Maybe put that Only Positive thread back up people can go there if they don’t want to deal with rightly frustrated fans.
