Rhule defenders chime in here

I think he personally gets some unfair criticism.  For god's sake if the hot dog vendor gave someone a undercooked dog, they'd be blaming that on Rhule too.  But the bottom line is as a head coach, he has the responsibility for the W/L and he has not produced.  I don't think he is as bad as some people like to paint him, but he isn't good enough to win right now.  I'm still giving him this season, but third year, he needs to be able to move from a close loss to a close win at the very least.

Care to give an example of unfair criticism?

It seems when we get a player nobody wants, it's Rhule's decision.  Good picks are Frit.  If we won the last two games, it would be because of the coaching staff winning in spite of Rhule.  Everything bad is Rhule's fault, every good thing is someone else's it seems.

What good picks?

Not defending him by any means but I guess one positive is at least we've been close in these two games. I'm sure the blowouts will start coming soon but for now at least we aren't looking completely outclassed. 10-25 is pretty damn indefensible tbh.

Wait until the big guns come around. The team's and QB's on the schedule are actually some of the best in the game.  Third tier teams are what they played so far.

One name on the above list stands out to me (as I'm somewhat a student of history and the NFL) Tom Fears. I'm pretty sure he was a one time great wr in the league. Later one of the first coaches of Saints. Known in coaching circles as "the dumbest man in football", which puts Rhule in good company.

    • Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those. 
    • This is the right move even if you think Bryce isn't the future. Everything except signing him to a long term deal until proven otherwise. There's a decent chance we have a shot to draft a QB next year that we like. 
    • If we're still bad enough that Canales gets fired, especially if it's during the season, there is no way we could ever attract any HC worthy of the job if we told them they had to keep Bryce their first year. That would be 2 coaches he's gotten fired and 4 years of not performing up to par. I still say replace both of them next offseason.  I like Canales the man and I think he's done an absolutely outstanding job at fixing our locker room issues, as it was really bad before he showed up.  But I just don't see it from him with his in game decision making, I think he's held us back just as much as Bryce has, just in different ways. Canales was our Dan Campbell, the coach you hire to turn the franchises culture around for the HC after them to inherit and take to the next level.   The difference was he had some elite coordinators early on and really let him focus on his "leader of men" role as opposed to the X's and O's that Canales does himself and it's turned out well for him.
