So what is Rhule's job now?

His job is to….manage really good coaches. Belichick had Vrabel, Crennel, etc as his DCs. He had Brady and McDaniels as his OCs/QB. What does Belichick do? Makes the final decision. Manages the coaches. If Rhule still sucks with these guys as his coordinators then he’ll never coach in the NFL again. 
 

But at this point I’m kinda hoping for McAdoo 2.0 and for Rhule to take that Michigan job. Bc I think McAdoo got the shaft in NY bc of Eli’s attempted retirement tour.

Tepper: "So what you do is you take the gameplan from the coordinators and bring it down to the players?"

Rhule: "Well, no, my secretary does...or the fax."

Tepper: "So you must physically get the gameplan from the coordinators."

Rhule: "Well...no.  Yeah, I mean, sometimes."

If you're a HC and delegate or "manage" the other coaches, you have to bring something to the table. You have to actually coach and inspire and motivate the team. You have to make good game time decisions. Rhule is none of this.

"So you see even though Slater was an all pro LT this year, he's actually a guard and in my system he'd be ready to start in maybe 3 years!"

experience matters.

there's a difference between managing the college game and pro game.

there's a difference in the way you manage boys vs men.

who knew? 

what's next? picking players who have demonstrated skill vs. players who have not, but you "see something that could be special"?

Rhule:  I deal with the damn coordinators so the players don't have to. 

I have people skills.  I am good at dealing with people.  Can't you understand that ?  

What the hell is wrong with you people ?

We've hired 3 really good coaches this past week. So where does this leave Rhule? Where is his "expertise"? He certainly isn't an offensive mind. He's not a defensive mind. He absolutely is not a motivator. So wtf is Rhule doing here exactly?

Hopefully he’s staying out of the way.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
