Rhule on practice reps

Well, I don't think that Rhule is making all of the decisions now, so we'll see what if anything has changed...

So you think Ben McAdoo is the one throwing Sam Darnold, Elflein, Jordan, etc out there as co-starters at this point?   

I mean, whoever you deem is making those decisions.  It all comes back to Matt Rhule.  There is no sound reason for anyone to be doing some of this.  We aren't week 1 at Wofford.   It's either a charade gone to far or they are clueless.

It's beyond obvious Matt Rhule needs to go back to college.

C'mon Tepper, finally get a clue. Pull your head out of wherever it is and fire this guy for ALL of us.

It's over. He's not capable. It's painfully obvious. He's got agenda, that's it. No creativity no imagination. Easily figured out.

I think it's more of a collaborative effort between the coaching staff now, ie: HC, OC, OL & maybe the GM & Tepper. If our coaching staff is getting on the same page now, that's a step in the right direction.

All the quotes from Rhule in here make me want to cry. 

Well, this probably won't help.

Rhule has stated that the competition for the starting quarterback spot is still ongoing. In fact, he previously said that the starters were only getting minimal reps in preseason one because he expected to give them a lot of reps during the joint practices with the Patriots.

That means Rhule will be devoting yet more time in these practice sessions to answering a question seemingly everyone else already knows the answer to, as opposed to using time to help coach up our rookie "future" QB.

Because why not? 😖

well, if the HC, OC, and OL coach are all together that Sam, Elflien, Jordan all should be competing still for a starting spot this close to the season....I would call that everyone getting on the same wrong page.

I don't think a lot of this is very collaborative at all. I think Rhule largely dictates the personnel but the game planning is handled by his coordinators. 

We obviously don't know the full picture but he seems to like to micromanage elements of practice with his stupid college BS. Then you have the season where he seemed to like to throw the previous OC under the bus about playcalling, something he literally could have taken over at any point.

I would call that a carryover assessment from training camp. Moving players around against live game action and putting that info up against the training camp assessments to make a better determination of 1st, 2nd, 3rd string and so forth for the entire team.

Either way, regardless of what they're doing, I'm hoping for the best we have to play come week 1 of regular season.

I'm not a 100% sure who does exactly what, so I can only give my opinion. But my fact is: I'm hoping that the best players play and we are a much approved team...

If that means he understands the playbook better I get that. But from who can move the offense and will air it out it has to be Baker. Let's see how Darnold does when New England blitzes while playing tough man press.

I think we know what we have in Sam but like @CRA said they may use Mayfield as a fall back.

    • They addressed D in free agency in a big way (Edge, ILB) and they signed a starting OT and a player they think could be a swing OT in reserve.  They have claimed to be adding "Weapons" to the offense.  I think that will be their focus.  I agree 100% that we need a T, but a reserve, developmental OT in a weak (at the top) draft does little to address that weakness in 2026.  If they are telling the truth, a reserve developmental OT is not a weapon.  The will draft a WR if that statement and their actions in free agency are accurate.  That does not mean we ignore OT--I just dont see where he takes a T if he is filling holes. As a coach, I am concerned about OT, but when I look at the roster, I see bigger immediate problems. S: We are OK if you want Scott for another season. Not ideal.  There is also talk of Smith-Wade being moved to S.  If so, we need a CBN. DT: Who took Robinson's job?  He played a lot.  All DTs (NT-DE) were average to below average, including 280 lb wharton.  We need a DT (my preference for the first pick, to be honest)  I am guessing a DT will be our third rounder? ILB:  Unless we want Wallace out there in coverage, we need a compliment to Lloyd.  I think Lloyd's starting mate is the second rounder. (speculating)  This pick is likely to occur in the second round because it is for a starting position. WR:  Some are fine with what we have.  sIn 2025, Coker had 3  TDs on 394 yards.  Legette had 3 TDs and 363 yards--and only 1 drop.  I love Coker, but neither should make us feel secure about WR with those numbers.  A lot depends on both stepping up in 2026, but Canales has been screaming weapons.  Could he mean Tight end?  That depends on how good they feel about Coker and XL. Center:  You can get a player ready to start relatively early in the middle rounds.  Very similar to the OT situation but I think C may be more of a priority right now than OT.   Tight End:  They seem to like Delp from Georgia who projects round 4. CB:  There was some talk of moving Smith-Wade to S (to learn for a season with Scott, maybe?) and that might require adding CB depth inside. Tackle?:  I agree that we need one, but this draft is simply not strong at the top at T.  The ONLY way to get a quality OT that is still developmental is to take one in round 1.  Canales has all but said we are not doing that.  But after the first 40 picks or so, they pretty much level out for a good while.  The fifth rounders and the third rounders are about the same.  For that Reason, I am guessing (It is all guesses) that they
