I'm sorry, Rhule's unwillingness to replace players that aren't getting it done needs to get him axed more than anything else. 

There was no reason at all that he shouldn't have sat Hubbard immediately after the fumble. Moreover, it was painfully obvious to me that Shi is at a severe disadvantage at the point of contact. He's small. Once he dropped a couple of balls, Rhule should've made sure that TMJ was put into the game to at least see if the big second-rounder could actually do what he was drafted to do. And lastly, it's a damned shame that Marquan McCall didn't get some legit play until Roy went out. Oh, yeah, why not just put Ricci into the game more to see what he can do (though that may be more of a question for the OC).

It's so frustrating to see fug-ups and uninspired coaching.

Yes it's bad especially in the Robbie Anderson area where he can't catch a ball from any QB. Still this Roster has talent it's just not being coached to it's potential. 

Anderson? He hasn't dropped one this year. Out of all the things you mention, you mention Anderson. Come on, dude.

didn't a bunch of nfl execs say rhule's regime was the least meritorious in the league? turdball way to run a team and the chickens are coming home to roost

I wouldn't be surprised. 

Players need to sit down, if nothing else but to get their head together, if they're not getting it done. You can't just be pigheaded and continue to play a player based on preseason when the live bullets start flying. Neither Shi, Roy or Hubbard have done enough in the league to just stick with them when there are other players behind them with potentially more upside. I'm not saying that you don't get them in the game, but you have to let others get an opportunity. Go with the hot hand at least until someone earns their role.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By lumbeecheraw75 · Posted

      overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
