One thing I would like to point out

I know the relationship between pressure and desperate decisions. Desperate decisions rarely work out. Tepper should've put on his big boy pants and owned up to his mistake and fired Rhule. Instead we're basically going into Fox's lame duck season 2.0 except the coach has the full power to tank the future of the franchise trying to save his job.

Folks, it's ugly and it's likely to get uglier before it has the chance to get better.

Not really sure why you got crapped any at all on this response as it's totally true.

rhule needs to get a division title this year if he wants to have a future in this organization beyond 2022. with tom brady, drew brees, and sean payton all retired or otherwise out of the division, the NFC South hasn’t been more wide open since the mid 2000s.

This is what really bothers me right now. Our division rivals are so weak right now. But the way we have screwed everything up since axing Rivera and Cam, the Falcons probably win 7 games to take the division next year and get blown out by the 3rd place team in the NFC West in the playoffs.

Tepper never came out and publicly endorsed Rhule for this season. He could have easily done so, and helped get some of the pressure off Rhule. That didn't happen. Tepper wants the pressure on Rhule. And you know the relationship between pressure and heat.... 

Tepper doesn't care. He makes money either way. Probably hasn't talked to anyone in the FO in months.

I have to believe there were some contractual terms that seemed untenable to Tepper  to pull the trigger in getting rid of Rhule after two years 

it is impossible to believe that Tepper would tolerate this much blatant incompetence 

the mere fact that Rhule was enamored of Darnold should have been red flag number 1 

I also have to think that he has to be careful as who would want to come here to succeed Rhule

as the saying goes ‘past is prologue’ … unfortunately

Ahhhhhhhhhh... so he wants to give the direct implication of pressure on Rhule, but he doesn't have the courage to it publicly?

Yeah, sounds about right for that douche.

My worry with Tepper is that he seems to believe he's one of these guys who can just big ball his way through the world, do things any way he wants and still be successful.

Obviously, that's not working as an NFL team owner. Nor is it likely to.

There are owners in the NFL, nowhere near as rich as Tepper, that would make Tepper's codsack shrink into his abdomen on sight.

Tepper is all talk.

It's like when you disregard the instructions to assemble furniture or something, thinking you already know what it takes.  Then after an hour realizing that you really don't know how to put this thing together and go dig the instructions out of the packaging you threw away.  We need Tepper to have that a-ha moment.

That a-ha moment turns into an oh-poo moment if you had to use wood glue.

No, it's not impossible. Just because Tepper claimed he wants to win when he bought the team doesn't make it true and is just PR talk. Did you think he would say he was ok with losing and risk driving off his customers?

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
