Matt Rhule disappointed, not discouraged by opening loss

Question. Does anyone know the best coach Matt Rhule has "beaten"? This clown was 0-7 against coaches fired last year. It's absolutely embarassing.

Looking over his 10 wins, I'd say its either Sean Payton when the Saints had a lot of people out, or Ron Rivera near the end of 2020 that messed up our draft position.

This is Sean McVay after getting killed by the Bills:

Nathaniel Hackett after losing to Seattle:

Notice what's different about them and what Matt Rhule says?

rivera never did this either..at least not until near the end but you know it was forced. and rivera was pretty much fox 2.0

So the COVID ravaged Saints with multiple players and coaches out and Ron Rivera who was starting Dwayne Haskins. I just don't have any faith in this dude. Even if he manages to get us to the playoffs given a miracle who actually think he will be able to outcoach playoff caliber teams and coaches?

McVay knows what he's doing.  But there's nothing that Hackett could say after last night's display that would make me feel better about him.

That kind of game management is enough to make you sick to your stomach if you're a Broncos fan.

Hackett flubbed up the end game for sure, but I mostly chalk that up to a learning experience for a rookie HC. I just like that he took responsibility for his teams failures. I can't remember ever hearing our coach do that.

I'm overreacting for sure (I mean what else is there to do after week 1?).  But he gives me vibes of a guy that's in over his head.

I'll listen to "missed opportunities" or "it is what it is" every week if we're winning.

It's possible, but I was a big believer in Hackett. I wanted him if we got rid of Rhule, so I'm more than willing to give him more time so I can feel better about my evaluation of him.

Just about every coach I've wanted the Panthers to hire has turned out to be a huge dud.  For me, this goes back to Steve Spurrier taking the Washington job, and us getting stuck with John Fox.  Turned out a lot better for us.

It's like QBs.  You just never know until they get out there and show what they can do.  It's like a roll of the dice.

He has beaten Kliff Kingsbury twice - Kingsbury is in the same boat as Ruhle. Destined to be back in college by Thanksgiving. Another guy who shoulda stayed in his lane.

Didn't he just get an extension though?

(the Bidwills aren't exactly the sharpest knives in the drawer either)

    • I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive lshort or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
    • Then please take a vacation from the team.
    • In addition to his weak arm he has to compensate in the pocket by throwing off his toes due to his height. Respectfully, its a handicap.
