When did you figure out Rhule was a fraud?

[Waldo]

The 5 to 7 year plan was a giant red flag. If you are not improving and starting to compete at the end of year 2 then you shouldn't see a year 3. He shouldn't even be here this year after the turd he birthed last year.

When he accepted the HC job from Tepper / Hurney and immediately used that as leverage to get the Giants to beat the contract details.

2021 offseason. Those FA moves and draft were so sketchy that I questioned everything.

That man sat in front of the entire press corps and compared Sam Darnold to Matt Stafford.

I knew it was over then.

Well Stafford did look like Darnold on Thursday night

Mid year 2 for me. Was willing to see how things were playing out after the 3-0 start, felt hopeful, but the QB debacle and whole response they had to things going south really did it. The whole 2 QB rotation was nuts bananas

Rivera goes 5-7 and gets fired.

Rhule goes 5-11, 5-12, and likely 4-13 and he gets 4 more years for his 7 year plan.

Now, I thought the Panthers needed to replace Rivera to take the next step to championship SB level, but I knew the Panthers had to be patient in looking for that coach that would be an upgrade over Rivera. Same with Fox. These are NFL head coaches who can maintain a team in the NFL and beat the Rhules, Meyers, and Moras of the NFL consistently.

I knew Rhule was fools gold after seeing how he was unprepared to win an NFL game in the final 6 minutes. This showed with Bridgewater at QB during the Bears, Saints, Falcons, and Chiefs run in 2020. That offense was never prepared in practice to manage/win a close game. It was by the Falcons game I knew this experiment was over and the Chiefs game hammered it home for me. I believed Bridgewater 100% following the season.

Is it?

I mean, it feels like he's been in big boy chair here for 80% of our existance....may not be that long, but sure does feel like it.

Almost have to wonder if he's a secret Falcons fan or something.

When he opted for Sam Darnold to try a 4th and goalline sneak over the greatest short yardage quarterback in history

[raleigh-panther]

The day he was hired 

he had zero resume for a nfl job

too, never, ever hire a nfl coach that talks too much. 

[Davidson Deac II]

I don't know that he is a fraud. Only people that know him personally would know that.   I just know he doesn't seem to be a very good NFL coach.  Beyond that, I don't know or care.  

[Butterflyj30]

When he was playing 3 QB's and we still didn't win

When I saw a jet land in Waco, TX

I was not excited about this hire. College coaches, historically, don't have success in the NFL. But I wanted to be wrong. I just didn't get that HC feel from him. He looks like he belongs sitting behind a computer in a cubical all day making TPS reports. And he seems like the guy who would forget the cover sheet. In all seriousness, I've been on the fence for a while, but that playing for the FG crap is what finally did it for me. He's weak and will never have success as a HC in this league. Personally, he should be done. He probably knows he has one foot in the grave and one foot on a banana peel. Nothing he can do. He just has to wait until he finally gets that call, and hopefully, it's soon.
