Rhule: We don't need to make any changes, we just need to battle through it right now.

I will translate whatever he is saying:

 

”please for the love of god mr tepper fire me so I can go enjoy this 70 million you gifted me”

Seriously. It's like he's recognized that he's not cut out for the NFL and is gonna end up back in college anyway so just go ahead and get it over with. He was sniffing around all the top college openings last year thinking he was as good as fired.

Can't make this up.  Just said this in his presser.

Also, when asked about the pressure the Giants got he said he didn't think anyone just got flat-out beat, they were just bringing "extra guys."

😂😂😂

Why didn't this stuff work with my parents growing up?

He doesnt want to quit because he will have to give back the money.

Yeah but he wouldn’t get paid by both 

That is the way it usually works in the NFL.  I don't know about Rhule's contract, since Tepper was busy trying to outsmart the rest of the NFL with him.

Most NFL coaching contracts are structured like personal service contracts.  So, he can be fired as the coach, but he continues to be paid but he can't go elsewhere for the term of the contract. 

He can't just sit on his arse for four more seasons and collect the rest of the money.  It is almost like collecting unemployment, where he is required to try and secure another coaching position.  But, if he goes elsewhere, there has to be a buyout (offset) to the former team.

Rhule makes roughly $8.5M a year with his contract with the Panthers.  So, if Northeastern Southwest Mississippi Institute of Technology State A&M pays him $3M a year, he'll get that and $5.5M from Panthers.

Here is a link that talks about coaching contracts in general.  Again, whether Tepper ran with terms normally in NFL coaches' contracts or tried to outsmart everybody, well, who knows?

Exactly. That's the only reason he's still here. Probably the reason Tepper hasn't fired him. They're in a standoff to see who gives in first. I don't think it's gonna be Rhule. He's not walking away from tens of millions.

    • Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4
    • Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.    
    • Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
