It's becoming more apparent last year he did it Rhules way, this year he's like F that I'm not losing my job over this lame duck coach

Could be, or it could be the coach with no nfl experience is learning as he gains said experience.  That's usually how it works.  Its unfair to blame a person for all the bad and give someone else credit for all the good when he has the same amount of input on both decisions.  It's so much just single track blind hatred.  Sometimes people get better as they go.  Is that what's happening?  Maybe, I dont know.  The same as everyone that thinks they know it's not him.

Rhule still sounded like a moron when he did the radio show talking about Slater not being a LT after he had an amazing rookie year, an Fitt was openly mocking Rhule in his last presser about the arm length stuff. I'm rolling with that until they give us post FA or draft pressers. Maybe those two pressers got Rhule to realize oh poo I'm a dumbass and need help, who knows

For LT? Not sure that'd have been a good idea. He's more of a RT/OG.

He was a left tackle at LSU. His senior year he graded a 99. The Panthers were expected to draft him in 2015, but backed off a day or 2 before the draft. An ex girlfriend was murdered and the investigation was not completed in time for the Panthers to fill good about drafting him. Given that this was right after the Rae Carruth fiasco, the Panthers could not risk drafting him. So…a first round draft pick went undrafted as everyone was skittish about spending a draft pick on him. Since he went undrafted he could sign with anyone. Dallas and Jerry Jones were waiting and signed him immediately without using a draft pick. (2015)

      The issue is the position Bryce plays. Finding a good/great quarterback isn't easy. Plus, it sometimes takes years for these guys to actually become good/great. What you have to look for is progress instead of regression. Bryce has shown that. Can he put it all together? We don't know yet. But that's why you place a smaller bet with the 5th year option, and wait to see. You could be wrong and lose your 30 mil bet, but you didn't hitch your wagon long-term and lose much more.

      Absolutely not. That’s too much for replacement level player. Bryce may be that. Or he may turn into something more. If you can’t see the flashes, you’re willfully blind. There’s more bad than good right now, but there’s less bad than there was earlier in his career. He’s only 24 and he’s showing signs of improvement. He may never become consistent enough to justify a long term contract, but he’s shown enough to roll the dice on what effectively will turn into a 2 year, $30MM contract for the next two years to see if he can earn something longer.    Sure, in his one season starting, Howell managed to throw for 3,946 yards and toss 21 TDs, but it took throwing the ball an astounding 612 times. He also threw 21 INTs (for a particularly egregious 3.4 INT%). For all the talk of him being a deep ball thrower, he still only averaged 6.4 YPA, with an average air yards of 5.6 yards per attempt. And for all the excuses of Washington’s line giving him no protection (65 sacks taken that year), he was only pressured on 22.7% of his dropbacks, which is a few percentage points lower than what Bryce has had to deal with each year (24.2, 26.7, and 24.0%).    These are all numbers that are at best roughly equivalent to Bryce’s production the past two years. It’s wild to me people can claim so confidently that he’s a better QB.
