Well that just further reinforces my decision to not put forth any additional effort to watch this team.  If they come on a national broadcast Ill watch.  Otherwise Ill catch them as I can on RedZone.

lol I've watched Redzone only for the entire Rhule era..... I always tell people "if they do something, I'll see it"....

Not sure I can buy that as much as I buy that he is buying the BS Rhule is spewing because Tepper really doesn't know very much about football.

I don't think that is a small thing to overlook, that he really has extremely limited football knowledge but still meddles in the football operation side of things.

His not knowing football doesn't bother me.

Him thinking he knows football does.

Trying to take myself away from a fan perspective.  I can see (not agree, just see the personal justification) how Tepper would give Rhule a 3rd year.  If he had fired Rhule after two it could look like Tepper is a hot head and doesn't give his guys a chance, potentially negatively impacting the ability to lure top tier coaching talent.

That said, we are a couple games in, and anyone can see that this team is in disarray with no signs of the staff being able to overcome the issues that have haunted them since the regime took over. Ten wins and stats say if you score 17 points Carolina lays down.   Better line talent, better QB talent, seasoned NFL staff members and the product on the field is basically the same.  If (actually when) we continue to struggle, I don't think Tepper should have any misgivings about moving forward with a change.  If Tepper is going to be "patient" with Rhule, I think that is likely to be measured based on games rather than seasons.

    • If I could pie more, I would. Fantastic 
    • Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
