I’d say Fields is struggling. And they have comically bad talent since he has been there. You don’t need the best RB in the NFL as the solution to comically bad talent. Trevor isn’t struggling anymore. They have a real HC now. and they simply went from no talent to okay talent. Currently has the 8th highest QB rating Mac isn’t struggling in reality. He has a real HC. He has a winning record to date and has competed like 67% of his passes as a pro. You need a good OL, good playcaller and a well built and diverse roster. I’d take all that all day over just having a great RB.

He isn't ready. He addressed that. He essentially called coming in to save Matt Rhule's job last year a mistake. Did nothing but hurt Cam's stock coming into a shitshow. He isn't coming. There will be no one to stop the boos once they really ramp up at BOA. It seems to be cooking up for it to start pretty early this year. And no owner likes there team being loudly booed on TV early in the year at home. It's what got them to go get Cam last year. It's matters.

Tepper bringing Rhule back for a pointless season meant we essentially were tanking before week 1 kicked off. It could only go one way and it is.

Only 3 WRs in the NFL have gotten a higher % of uncatchable balls than DJ Moore.

Correct. It wouldn't of happened with a healthy Cam. It's a QB league. We have a losing record with CMC and every QB he has been paired with since Cam got hurt. It doesn't matter if CMC is the best RB in the NFL. That's not how you win.

the league is full of productive runners. I didn't say it was full of top 10 ten rushers/featured load RBs. I don't care to have a highly paid featured RB. He gets hurts and it disrupts everything. I'd rather just have a well rounded committee. It's passing league. I mean, even when CMC went completely bonkers and pulled off 1000/1000.....we won 5 games.

I'm not advocating trading away all our good players. We have a lot of very good promising young players. just the RB. The one we never should of signed to begin with. He frankly was part of why the Rhule rebuild was a joke. You don't start off a legit rebuild by making a RB the highest paid players in the NFL. He should of been traded then and not paid. Why carry that over to the next rebuild. No point keeping this a CMC centric O. We need to be building something new. We wasted CMC. It is what it is.

the league is slam full of productive runners that aren't Chuba though. CMC isn't Deboo. 2 totally different players. They just happen to both be diverse.

I don't get it. People assured me Ben McAdoo was a great OC. A TREMENDOUS upgrade at OC for us. We had a real coach now! That he wasn't run out of playcalling in the NFL by being a horrific playcaller who runs painfully predictable stuff. yet those people seem to of.....

What good new coach wants to come to an org that hasn’t won in a half decade, has no QB and no draft picks? It will make us the default last pick IMO any good coach and they likely just wait another hiring cycle. Where you go matters for not only player success but coaching success to. You largely have about 3 years in this league to put up

Rhule likely isn’t forfeiting that much money if he lands a good power 5 gig. Plus there is happiness and his entire future (more money) at play in the long run. Brian Kelly LMAO makes more money than Rhule. Miami, Michigan State, etc all pay their coaches more. With ballooning salaries Rhule has decent odds if someone wants him of getting really good money and no longer being a miserable laughing stock.

A couple FGs. * always the possibility for some type of busted coverage where the opponent gifts us one. But that’s about it.

1000% working

you mean when we landed a backup center Bozeman and Chubba's backup in Foreman? The icing on the Baker cake. Fitmagic!

I don't consider Robbie Anderson above average talent. There are a million speedsters in this league that aren't great overall WRs. A dime a dozen.

Fun fact. We started 1-3 in 2001. Which is what this team feels more like. We finished 1-16.

Rhule was 47-43 as a college coach. I don’t really care enough to look, but I wonder how many college coaches that got a try at the NFL won so little. I mean he was barely over .500 in college. Think Schiano probably is a close comp. to this day, I still don’t get how he got the opportunity given his resume.

Matt Rhule doesn’t know offense. Didn’t know it in college. Clueless at the NFL level. I guess in his defense he too didn’t want Ben McAdoo near this team. Rejected him twice for lower positions. But he was the only guy with a name willing to join the poo show when he had to add an OC after that complete poo show of 2021.

I think the GM should go with Rhule. I think In large part they should always come and go together. Tepper fugged up keeping Marty. Right the ship. Fit’s hand was in Sam, the 5th year option, Robbie extension, Baker and all the real messes. The real clusterfug started once Fit and Rhule got paired. He gets a pass on it all from a lot.

Another year where a random kicker is the best thing we got going on lol.

He also has cried while detailing some of mistakes before too in an interview. Everyone cries.
