So Matt Rhule sent feelers out to see if Chip Kelly would….

- take millions and millions of dollars in a pay cut

- take a job demotion 

 

this is what we have folks.  A desperate man.  And desperate people don’t think right.  Maybe we should ask Kyle Shanahan if he would like to quit his job and be our OC.   Which is why we should just fire Rhule.  Everyone knows he is a dead man walking and will eventually be fired.  He isn’t a NFL coach.   Another year won’t change that.  All we are going to do is give Matt Rhule a year to dig us deeper in the hole with bad contracts and building a roster toward an experiment everyone knows will end.  Just pointless. 

It doesn’t help that he’s desperate and has no idea what he’s doing.  Better invest in some protective covering because we are going to constantly be slinging poo at the wall to see if anything works.

Kelly is making 5 mill a year 

Joe Brady made 400k.  Someone like Leftwich makes like 800k. 

I mean I would by totally fine with Kelly as OC.   But for Rhule to even put feelers out to see if Kelly would like to take a massive demotion to come be part of a staff that essentially all will be lame ducks says something about what little is going on in that brain of Rhule’s. 

Joe Brady absolutely makes more than 400k. Like 5-6x more. LSU would have paid well over 2M for him to stay.

Well that was what a quick google search said and it might be wrong. 

but even if Chip Kelly was the highest paid OC in the NFL…..it’s a paycut from his UCLA gig.  Job demotion.  And loss of job security.

Oh, your point is still 100% valid. But I know he was offered in the 2.5M range to stay. But he wanted back in the NFL. 400k is what they paid him to leave NO to come to LSU. 
 

   I agree that if they even contacted Kelly, they are more delusional than I imagined. And I didn’t think that was possible. Sounds like a “leak” to make people think they are going after some sort of legit candidate.

Could be.  Rhule probably sees what a walking dead coach has to choose from and is going into PR mode. 

this ain’t 2020.   When it was an attractive gig.

    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset. 
    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…
