Everyone knows Rhule is desperate.

We've truly entered the trifecta of poo for the franchise:

1) No hope for the playoffs

2) Lack draft capital

3) Not in a great salary cap situation

How does one franchise check the above three boxes and still keep it's coach that got them in that spot? I am putting blame on Tepper because of the personnel and drafting power he handed Rhule on Day 1. 

FIFY

I recall last season when we signed Cam back and the town was electric.  The mojo since then has totally gone south.  At this point it is an amazing long shot Rhule can turn this around.  Everyone is against him.  If he does turn it around he is worlds better than people are giving him credit for right now.

He is the coach and we should all probably be pulling for him here.  People are so full of hate these days.

We absolutely should have.  

All Teddy would have done is get us 2-3 more wins and we’d be picking 13th instead of 6th with a 2nd round pick.

Thats not changing much….

If anything trading for Darnold SHOULD give an indication to Tepper as to who he’s got running this team. 

A dude who’s a good but not great coach that couldn’t deliver on his Darnold gamble.

Why is Tepper willingly embarrassing himself to this degree? It really is awful to be a fan right now. I can’t imagine many players will want to come here.

I think the only reason Tepper hasn't fired Rhule is because of his own ego. Tepper is a loud talking, big balls, show off owner. He endorsed Rhule so much as a savior to this franchise when he hired him that he is embarrassed to admit that it was a wrong hire. He is willing to waste this season with Rhule to give him his "3 years" instead of admitting a mistake. Some people would rather sink with the boat than abandon ship.

We know he can’t turn it around. He doesn’t know that he’s incompetent at this level. That’s the real problem and why everyone hates him. He makes bad decisions that are setting us further back but he’s oblivious to his mistakes.

Rhule is willing to sale the farm to get above. 500 this year. 

Been saying this for ages.

But the "year in a vacuum" fans who insisted that Rhule would only remain here for another year with absolutely no control were as stupid and naive as ever.

Funny how those guys don't show up and spout their "Tepper is gonna brass-ball Rhule and take his power away!" theories anymore.

    • The organization was poorly put together from top to bottom and it shows. Management was in bunker mode and we had a guy as GM who could not evaluate talent either in the draft or free agency. We had just gotten away from a "culture" HC who needed to stay at a mid-majors college and replaced him with a guy who had a lot of emotional ties to the team but had just come off of a collapsing team of his own in Indianapolis. And that guy built a coaching staff, one heavily influenced by ownership, that was just not ready for the roles they were given and could not gel because they could see the collapse and were oftentimes worried about their own skin more than what the team needed. On the field, the team was just atrocious. The o-line suffered some early injuries and could not hold together because there was no depth and little coaching. Game planning seemed to make no effort to shore up the line and the rookie QB could not make adjustments, did not have the tools in his tool box yet, to offset this in even the least. Our highly recruited FA RB turned out to be a powder puff, our receivers were slow to the point of making people pine for the days of Kelvin Benjamin. We had one receiver who could actually run a rout and catch and he was double covered on almost every play. Our tight ends were just completely ineffective because of a lack of talent and using the same play concept over and over again. And our defense? Well, statistically, particular in yardage given up, looked great on paper. But it sucked, too. It just didn't suck as bad as our offense, which was historically bad. The highlight of our team last season was our Special Teams play. We had a good kicker and punter.  The saving grace of our team last season was this: The NFL had not gone to an 18-game schedule yet, meaning the faithful didn't have to sit through another week of watching that mess. Good luck to the new coach. I'd like to say there's nowhere to go but up from here, but I said that about this time last year, too. I don't want to be amazed by how wrong I was again.
    • If they can win this one I might actually believe we are gonna pull through this!
    • Let's fugging go!!!! I think just getting the PP on the board gives them confidence!
