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.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
