Matt Corral is here because of Ben McAdoo

I don't trust this entirely. I can see a scenario where McAdoo gets blamed if Corral flames out. This makes me wonder if this is Rhule once again trying to dodge future accountability.

I was thinking the same.  Fitt can always claim " it's not my fault".

At least Ben McAdoo has had some success in the NFL. Honestly he’s probably had difficult in his career because of his goofball name and pervert appearance.

Like I said in another thread, if the MMQB story is true, Rhule asked Fitty what he wanted to do. That's not the sign of a man that's not running things, it's the sign of a man who is deferring to and trusting his staff.

The last two years have been quite humbling for Matt Rhule. Maybe he's starting to get a better understanding of just what it takes to be successful as a HC in the NFL. Listening to the  counsel from others in the building as you pointed out is a sign that he's maturing and gaining wisdom on how to run the team.

It took Tom Landry coached the Dallas Cowboys from 1960-1964 without a winning season. The Cowboys didn't achieve a .500 record until 1965)  The team didn't have a winning season 1966. After that Landry wouldn't have a losing season until 1986, and the Cowboys only missed the playoffs twice from 1966-1985. 

We certainly don't want it to take 7 years for Rhule to post winning record, but it appears the guy is learning from his mistakes, and you really can't ask for more than that...except more wins of course

I've watched NFL games for nearly 40 years. I have no problem saying that the Jets have never interested me as a franchise. I've always been indifferent to them a league entity. You can make a strong argument that this franchise hasn't really been relevant since" before Joe Namath left the team" in 1976. If you took away that 1968 SB season, they'd be a footnote in NFL history.

All that said, the front office crushed that draft. Zach Wilson had an erratic 2021 season, but anyone who knows football realizes that kids got a cannon for an arm. Selah's a good coach and seems to be putting the pieces together little by little. He and the front office "may be" on the verge of building something really special with that team.

When you look at who played hard, all the way to the end of the year and were very close, the AFC has the Jets and the Lions from NFC.  Both coaches kept their guys believing whatever message they were conveying.  I expect both teams to leave the cellar this year

Beaver tranquilizers? They have to have their own?

Growth by who?

I think in the past Rhule might have made the decision without deferring to advice.

But he was scared of a vaccine? I thought he was like the all natural medicine dude.

The obsession with Rhule on this board borders on pathological.

He lives rent free in a lot of roomy heads.

He’s the fuging HC and was supposedly given full control of the team. So, yeah, we’re gonna talk about him

[Chaos]

Quick, someone tell me how to feel about this.

What the hell would you be taking tranquilizers on purpose for anyway?
