0-3. Is the leash that short?

I truly think Tepper will wait until the end of the season. If the team finishes trending upward (even if they don’t make playoffs) Rhule will be retained. If they look worse as a team and don’t show progress then he will be fired.

Yeah I never understood the value of cutting a coach early.

If we lose to start off the season to the Browns w/ Brissett and the Giants w/a new HC & Daniel Jones, we've got to let this college coach experiment end.  Then let that crazy sumbitch McAdoo ride this team into a high draft pick in the most entertaining way possible.

If a revenge game level-Baker, CMC, DJ can't do enough to put down a Browns team (who I'm sure even a mediocre defense can contain w/Jacoby), it's on coaching.  

Baker with the improved line gives us a chance in a lot of these games, after an easy start, we've got a tough stretch.  I'll tell you that if we weren't able to pull this Baker trade off, we'd be looking at 2-8/3-7 to start off easy and Rhule is gone.  Now, I'm unsure.  Especially if CMC stays healthy. 

This situation is insufferable knowing the HC is awful but we could still do well in spite of him.

I mean, besides our bottom of the roster guys, the team has looked pretty good this preseason. I'm slightly shocked at the overreaction on the board after that game last night. Our 2s dominated their ones, all of who played well into the second quarter, and we had a 3rd string QBs, and back end of the roster WRs playing. I mean Kieth Kirkwood was a starter, he isn't even going to make the team.

You are right. I though the 2nd and 3rd string defense did great. New England's top 3 qbs all had significant starter experience. Jones had to play 3 series before he had a decent drive and by them we have a mix or second and third stringers on defense. Our rookies got a lot of work. Likewise their defensive starters played into the second quarter while we had our second and third string WRs out there and 2nd string line. Truth is except for mistakes our scrubs gave NE all they could handle

    • Biiiiiig eyeroll on this.  First, Look at historical stats of the most recent historical great DBs.  I plucked 3, Revis, Sherman, and Norman (cuzz he was our guy).  Combined post age 30, there are TWO pro bowls between those 3 and wanna get this...ZERO seasons with 16 games started.  ALL missed time.  It is RARE that Corners survive that long in the NFL and its about time we started recognizing this fact.  Jaycee is a good bet because it hasnt been anything seriously devastating injury wise, and with his sample size he could and should be an incredible piece for the panthers through age 30. Jaire kinda flops on the other side, hes 28...so hes under 30, but he wants his payday before it comes up, hes also been injury prone lately.  Bulk of the contract will be on opposite side of 30.  Will both of these guys help us be better in 2026?  SURE!  No doubt, but the question is, will these guys help us past 2026...not sure. The investment isnt worth the risk, nor would the ROI be anywhere close to worth it.  Neither guy is moving us from a 6-8 win team to a 8-10 team, period. My point is we're in this state a 6-8 win team IMO and he projects us as  a 4-6 win team.  EVEN if we think Jaire or Ramsey will make us a 6-8 win team, it in NO WAY is worth the money or capital to move that much just to suck kinda less.  
    • I assumed he was retiring but apparently he plans on playing multiple more seasons.  Florida is gonna have trouble holding onto everyone.  Happens to all teams that have that much success.
    • I hate Marchand, but if he became a free agent.....
