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

      Trade deadline

      By TheSpecialJuan · Posted

      Saints trade WR Shaheed to Seahawks Seahawks get: WR Rashid Shaheed Saints get: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 fifth-round pick Seahawks' grade: A- Saints' grade: B+ One of the NFL's hottest passing teams just got better. The Seahawks currently rank third in EPA per dropback (0.25) and first in success rate on dropbacks (53%). And now they are adding Shaheed in a move that makes sense both on the field and in terms of where the Seahawks are as a franchise. Shaheed, 27, is averaging 1.8 yards per route run this season. But I think that sells him short because that number is down a bit from his career average entering this year (2.0) and he's been playing a role that includes running fewer vertical routes (34%) compared to last year (44%). Shaheed also has consistently posted above-average open scores in ESPN's receiver score metrics, including a 63 this season that ranks 28th among wide receivers. As a complement to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, I expect Shaheed will run downfield more often and be a bigger threat in that role than rookie Tory Horton was. When Cooper Kupp returns, he and Shaheed will make for a nice pair of secondary threats behind one of the best receivers in the league in Smith-Njigba. This is the time to strike for the Seahawks. FPI gives Seattle an 84% chance to make the playoffs and a 5% shot at winning the Super Bowl. This addition helps boost their chances without mortgaging their future the way the Colts did in the Sauce Gardner trade. Shaheed is a pending free agent but given the leverage of the moment for the Seahawks and their need I think they ought to be plenty willing to pay the cost. Shaheed is young enough to where if Seattle doesn't retain him he should sign a free agent contract that would yield Seattle a compensatory pick -- if the Seahawks don't nullify that pick with signings of their own. Because the Seahawks currently have $79 million in cap space next year, per OverTheCap, getting that compensatory pick is not guaranteed. The Saints are not rolling in cap space the way the Seahawks are -- and thus would land a compensatory pick for Shaheed -- but they got more draft capital this way than they otherwise would have. Considering New Orleans' 1-8 record, this should have been an easy decision.
