Does 0-2 put Rhule’s seat red hot?

I doubt that 0-2 will get him on the verge of being axed early.  It may virtually seal the deal later in the year, though and not because of the slow start.  The first four games were among our best chances to pick up wins.  If we walk out of September under water, it is going to take a huge turnaround or a lot of teams expected to be good to come down to earth for us to pull anything out of this year.

Will the temperature among the fans and in the media go up?  Absolutely, but neither group makes the decision.

Or just stop wasting our time watching this dumpster fire of a team, stop wasting our money buying merchandise or at bars watching them, and probably feel happier and less stressed until changes are made...

Yeah, the idea that people are just gonna shrug their shoulders and throw their wholehearted support behind a loser is pretty silly.

Should be, but nothing will happen. Rhule is still owed like $43 million. I doubt David Tepper would piss 43 million away for sake of potentially winning some football games. I am afraid we're stuck with him so we might as well grit our teeth, support the team, and weather the storm. 

Grit our teeth and support the team? This ain't college ball bro.

Rhule kinda started a dumpster fire here, so it would make since that he's feeling the heat. Im not sure what the specifics of his huge contract is but Tepper should be having his people going over it. If there a way to cut bait he'd be crazy not to IMO.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
