His name shouldn't play any role.

With that said, it's not like Ron Rivera has exactly earned the benefit of a doubt when it comes to staffing decisions.

He's the head coach he can hire and fire whoever he wants for any reason he wants, there's no benefit of the doubt needed. Argue whether he should be a HC, sure. But he is.

I still find it hilarious how you all hate on a two time NFL coach of the year. Look at what is here now. What-everrrrrrr!

This is very valid but 99.9% of the fans here wanted Rivera gone. Be careful what you wish for as they say.

Rhule is terrible, but "coach of the year" is nothing special.

Take a look at the last twenty or so winners of that particular award and you'll see why.

Rivera needed to go.  Sometimes messages become stale and a change of scenery is necessary.  Getting rid of Ron wasn’t the problem, we just replaced him with a trash heap

Yep, everyone has a window.  Decent coaches too.  Ron is a decent coach.  He just isn't a great coach. 

It's much easier to do worse than Ron Rivera than better.   Same w/ Fox.  I consider them to be the same.

Fox and Rivera were very different people, but as coaches they had a lot of the same weaknesses.

Honestly so does Rhule, but without the strengths that Fox and Rivera possessed.

I mean, Fox and Ron were just decent coaches.  Flawed sure.  But they overall were decent NFL coaches.  Clear strengths and weaknesses. 

Rhule doesn't have a NFL strength IMO.  He has a college one. 

Rhule seem like a Dabo-wannabe.  And Dabo would be a horrible NFL coach.  Dabo's A+ schtick wouldn't work in the NFL.  And Rhule is bringing like a C game college schtick to the NFL.

      Potential changes to playoff seeding

      By HaricotVert · Posted

      no doubt but flip that.   The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football.  If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.

      Hard to say with London--he never ran--combine or pro day.  Here is what AI says, and it is always 100% accurate: Drake London's 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine was not recorded because he was dealing with a fractured ankle at the time. While he didn't participate in the 40 at the Combine or his pro day, his coach said his 40 time was estimated to be between 4.4 and 4.53 seconds. Some sources also list his 40 time at 4.58 and 4.6 seconds Unless you are running 9s all day, top end 40 speed is rarely reached.  I have always looked at the 3-cone drill.  At his pro day, TMac ran a 6.86--pretty good, actually.  For context, it is faster that Rome Odunze (6.88) who ran a 4.45 40.  Odunze is 6'3" and weighs 216, fwiw, and is considered a very good route runner with no wasted motion.  Mike Evans 3-cone was 7.08.  To put it in a broader context, through 2022, with all NFL prospect 3-cone drills combined, a 6.86 puts TMac in the.89th percentile-  Now consider the fact that he is 6'4" and 220.   We might have something here.  '
