Yeah this is kinda ridiculous. I get being excited, and I'm as excited as anyone here by the early prospects of Rhule and company. But we're 4 games into a very strange season in the middle of a pandemic. I wouldn't read so much into that we think 10+ other teams right now would fire their coaches for Rhule. Only reported interest in him the past few go arounds was NYJ and NYG and Jets I believe passed on him, while we might've outbid the Giants but not sure exactly what went down there. Other teams who needed HC weren't very interested in him the past few years, I highly doubt 4 games would sway their opinion on that. Let's talk after the season.

What got me here was the only four games into a very strange season. And yeah, you're 100% right. But it's the very strange season that all of the teams are sharing and experiencing together. Locally, we just seem to be handling all of this much better than anyone expected.

Basically, we aren't seeing any of the really good teams fall off a cliff right now (okay, the 49ers are looking tenuous). But most of the middling to bad teams are having all sorts of struggles. A few have offenses that are firing on all cylinders and no defense what to speak of. A few have good defenses but no offense at all.

Rhule and Co. have managed to put together a balanced, motivated and pretty disciplined team. They all bought in and it's making them the scrappy underdog team to watch. I'm liking this.

I wasn't too excited about Rhule, mostly because he is was an unknown.  His reputation for turning around programs surely opened some eyes.  

I do believe that regardless of win total people are noticing the attitude of the players and their commitment to doing Rhule's plan.  This said, I believe many teams given the change (which they won't get :)) would take a shot with Rhule. 

Also I think Rhule's commitment to putting the best athletes on the field shows.  We have a ton of speed on both sides of the ball.  It will be fun to see this team after Rhule has 3 or 4 drafts under his belt.
