Was Brady dealt a tough hand with Rhule and the personnel? Yes. Was he also (predictably) predictable and overmatched by NFL defenses? Also yes. These things are not mutually exclusive.

Honest NFL guy thinks he was scapegoated, and he may have a point.

But yeah, it's also true that he was given a job he wasn't ready for just yet.

That day might not be so far off as you think it is.

All indications are Rhule needs to do something to save his job this year.

It's far from guaranteed that he will.

Well, going all in on the rookie QB was his last shot, he foolishly chooses to do the exact same thing that got him his terrible record.

Of course he was, to some degree anyway; Rhule is a hack at this point in time and needed to give the appearance that he was doing something/had some kind of strategy. Considering that the offense got worse from there on out and STILL didn't run the ball like Rhule claimed he wanted to, it seems clear Brady took at least some kind of fall.

The only indications is huddle and media chatter.  The same chatter that said he'd be gone this year.

You maybe right.  But I'm not spending my time pining for the HC to be fired. 

He is HC this year and I want him to win.

Yeeeeaaah...nobody was predicting Matt Rhule was gonna be fired this time last year.

And hell, I'd like for Rhule to be a good head coach.

I'd also like for Sam Darnold to be a great quarterback.

I give those two things an equal probability of happening.

And he could get away with it at LSU.  Knowing what's coming and not being able to stop it is still problematic.

He didn’t really have to get away with anything at LSU.  People forget that he was not the OC, it was not his offense, and he did not call plays

BS. After the 7 game losing streak to end the season last year there were plenty predicting he would be gone both in the media and here.

Rhule has been a good HC, just in college.  He's still learning to compete in the NFL.   His other teams saw a 3rd year bump.  We'll see.

Sam was given 4 years to prove he sucks in the NFL.  Rhule has had two. 

You will see.  Rhules seat will not be hot by end of year and he will be HC in 2023.  I've offered several people to bet avatar for avatar that Rhule is still HC for the start of the 2023 season.  That was before the trade for Mayfield.

If you're so certain, I'll even give you odds.  You can choose my avatar for 3 months.  I choose yours for 1 month.

You can link those stories, then?

And the problem with any prediction of what will happen to Rhule is David Tepper. Rhule might go 2-15 yet Tepper could still be dumb enough to keep him / too egotistical to fire him.

What I feel pretty certain of is that Matt Rhule is not an NFL head coach.

I'm equally certain that David Tepper makes more bad football decisions than good ones, so who knows what'll happen?

Yeah, the same chatter that said Baker would never lower himself to come to this, and I quote, "poo show." We had it on good authority that Mayfield's genius agent would never let it happen.

That thread sure dropped off the front page in a hurry. lol

LOL.....good to se you qualified your answer to AP High

what type college programs make it into the AP top 10 4 years straight? and before that made it into the top 25 every year? 

Rhule gets some credit for dealing w/ the punishment.  But he didn't turn Baylor into something new or doing anything unique there IMO

      Adam Schefter: Panthers getting trade calls for Andy Dalton

      By strato · Posted

      To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. .

      I’VE FOUND OUR WR3 (Rashid Shaheed)

      By Car123 · Posted

      The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
