Aaron Wilson: Tepper's patience with Rhule growing thin

Aaron Wilson isn't a clown. He's actually a well respected reporter who covers the NFL and the Texans. Unless this is some other Aaron Wilson. The part about the coaches seems like speculation perhaps but I trust what this guys puts out. 

I mean, it was already reported awhile back that Tepper would look to go experienced next.  That’s why Tepper had to go apologize to Rhule and claim it totally wasn’t true.

Not sure that is actually a contradiction.  Could just be implying he wasn’t going to be fired at 0-3 or something like that 
 

there has been a lot of reporting since last year shitshow that all seems pretty connected

This doesn't really mean much. All that was saying is Tepper wasn't gonna fire Rhule if we lost to the Saints. No point in firing a coach 3 weeks into the season. Rhule is gone at the end of the season or near the end.

Idk man, "Expected to be patient" and "Patience growing thin" appear to be exact opposites.

Well, I think he should of been fired at 0-2.  To me he is showing patience.  Everyone knows Rhule sucks and is a deadman walking. I don’t think Tepper fires him until we are officially eliminated.  Thats the patience.  Or maybe if we are 1-6 and it gets too hostile at home after a Tampa loss. 

the one snippet your are claiming counters the narrative is the vaguest of all the reporting

Should've been fired with 3 games left last season. Everyone knows Rhule sucks, yes, but he's not going anywhere for 2-3 years.

Lol if we get the no 1 pick, trade that to the Saints for Payton. They get a franchise QB with the no 1 pick, we get a hof of head coach, we will learn real quick which is more important between a HC or QB lol 

 I don't think any NFL coach has won a Superbowl with two different teams. Statistically, Rhule has a better chance. Payton had one gifted to him 13 years ago. if we passed up a franchise QB for that guy, I would be livid.

It’s too perfect, QB…don’t have to roster build a lot, roof over stadium. Staley already on the chopping block in LA fans eyes

AFC team so New Orleans gets him out of the conference and their OC, Joe Lombardi, came from New Orleans, so the players wouldn't even need to learn a new offense.

Certainly possible Payton ends up in Dallas.

My thinking is since New Orleans still controls his rights, they would prefer to trade him to an AFC team.

Joe Lombardi, the Chargers OC came from New Orleans so it would be a seamless transition since they already run Sean Payton's system.

    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre. 
    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
