Great article about Christensen, author throws shade all over Rhule’s face about arm length

SMH, man people are ready to crown him @MHS831 . He’s been OK but not being able to pick up blitzes after his guy stunts is a big problem. 

That’s a mental, experience thing not a physical thing. That screams coaching and a rookie learning curve. 
 

it’s one of many reasons I want rhule and staff gone now. We are a super young team that desperately needs adequate nfl coaching.

I actually think we got some very good players the last couple years in the draft... And like you, I am really worried they're going to be ruined by this piss poor coaching.  You can see the regression in many of our 2nd year / younger players, and the rookies are largely failing to develop as you'd expect...

Its the total lack of development that has me done with Rhule. I actually didn't expect us to win much this year anyway but seeing critical players seeming to play worse and be out of position more the longer they have with these coaches??? Bad sign.

I still don't know why anyone would want to play him at OG, he doesn't have the strength. 

We should have 100% taken Slater. Ohh well, hope for the best and expect the worst I guess. 

For real. Theres college film breakdown on him where his biggest weaknesses are the bull rush and looking real stiff on inside run plays. The Ras stuff doesn't mean a guy isn't stiff/clumsy when squeezed in beside other guys, and I really doubt he can pull like a true guard. Rhule shouldn't be making roster decisions

Pulling is about the only thing at OG I think he could do adequately. Watching him line up against a great DT would be hard to watch. I think he can play LT good enough, not sure he will ever be worth a true LT contract tho. Hope for the best is all we can do with BC at this point. I sure wish we would have played him more at LT this year.

I don't get it, they just threw Michael Jordan out there as a starter as soon as he go here with no offseason experience with the playbook. Chuba got nearly every touch in the preseason, but some other guys like BC, Shi, Deonte have done nothing wrong and can't sniff the field. It's gotta be some mental complex for Rhule, that's how he convinced people to hire him as a coach in the first place but it's also why he can't let whatever trivial poo go and let the best guys play because he'll look like he was wrong

MJ had nfl experience is the only thing I can guess. I’m guessing he’s trying to avoid rookies for the past several weeks because we’ve been getting destroyed and he’s trying to save his job. Only thing that makes sense.

He can physically move sideways but I can't imagine him pulling like this dude on our bench

Our OL situation becomes a MUCH easier fix if we have the long-term solutions in place at both OT spots. Serviceable IOL are much easier to find. Well, they are unless Matt Rhule or Marty Hurney are the ones shopping. My concern is Scott Fitterer may need to be on that list too. Seattle's OL is as bad as ours.

We have to draft a Center. Just not one that Rhule has any say on. I would be perfectly fine keeping BC at LT next year and fixing center and at least one guard spot. But depth is huge too. We need to get some significant young depth on the OL for inevitable injuries.

I was just saying i think he would get there just fine, I think you are right that it wouldn't be good when he got there tho. I miss having OGs like that.

    • I forgot about Jackson...definitely elite.  The sad part of your list is that 2 of them were 'there for the taking for the Panthers'.  Rumor has it that Hurney loved Herbert and was vetoed on trying to trade up.  And rumor has it that Frank & McCown wanted Stroud.  I believe both rumors.  
    • I went on a solo elk hunt in the Flat Tops. It was awesomely miserable. LOL It was a late season hunt, I think third season and it was forecasted to snap off cold with highs in the upper thirties and lows in the single digits. fug it, I'm going anyway. They were wrong. The highs were in the low 20s and the lows were in the negative teens. I shivered so hard the first night I thought my teeth were going to break. It was the only time I've ever been legit concerned that I might be in trouble. Crawled out of my sleeping bag and got a fire started and suffered through the night bundled up next to the fire. I slept the next two nights literally wearing every stitch of clothing I'd brought with Nalgenes full of near boiling water in the bottom of my sleeping bag. That was the only way to have non-frozen water in the morning anyway. There was about a foot of snow on the ground and the melt/freeze crust was almost enough to support your weight but you'd go crashing through just as you went or make your step. It was exhausting travel and every step sounded like a rifle shot. Hunting was basically impossible. I never saw an elk in those four days, only saw 5-6 deer. LOL It was brutal but I loved it. Absolutely beautiful country that is never been to before and haven't been back since. I needed that four day complete break from society fighting for my life against the elements. I'm weird like that.
    • The lack of production is especially surprising given how much effort the team put into coaxing the best from him.  In just six short years he’s had the opportunity to work with 3 different GMs, 7 different head coaches and 10 different starting quarterbacks.  There’s literally no excuse to be made that one of those combos didn’t work.  It might be time to look withIAN.
