Rhule has been awful.. but lets be real here.. 

Apple was picked #10 overall by the Giants, benched repeatedly and called a "cancer" by his teammates, including Landon Collins specifically. Traded with a 7th for a 4th games into his 3rd year... Top 10 pick gone after 30 games played and 23 starts. 

Saints declined his 5th year option.

Agrees in principle to a deal with the Raiders, deal falls through

Signs with Panthers, plays a little, hurt, eventually released. 

 

Rhule has sucked.. but lets not grasp for straws on an unattributed comment made to a guy who hadn't exactly been a model NFL player, nor one who has ingratiated himself to his employers... Read the Huddle and Rhule apparently told a Jalen Ramsey level talent to take a walk, not the replacement level corner Apple actually is. 

The comment could very well have been- you won't play in the NFL unless you work on X, Y, and Z.. Hearing part of a story and running with it as fact rarely makes sense.

      Predictions for Brooks debut

      By ClawOn · Posted

      The other draft picks have turned out pretty well. Brooks will too.

      I'm still not touching Hunter He again said the other day that he plans on playing both sides of the ball in the NFL.  If he is allowed to do that, he won't be as good on either side as his potential and he's going to have serious injury issues and have a short career.  If he's not allowed to do it, I think he's going to become a problem when the team isn't winning as he's going to feel him not being used on both sides of the ball is why. He's being coddled in that environment with Deion and I think it's doing a disservice to him to prepare him for life in the NFL where your coach isn't a 2nd father to you, to where you can just walk into his locker room and steal his shoes like Hunter does to Deion.

      Real Mid-Season Development at QB: Bo Nix

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      He’s a tad behind them. Around 15ish of 32 starters in the league. He’s well ahead of a lot of guys. Tua, Bryce, Cousins (present), Rodgers (current), Devito/Jones, Minshew, Russ (current), Watson, Smith, Carr, T Laws deep ball is weak as poo IMO, there’s plenty. And it’s not like everyone is ripping 60+ers. The key component is if you can rip and maintain velocity of the 30-40 yarders which he does super well. Legit every report out there from Brugler to PFF to PFN document him as good/above average arm strength.  Eye test tells me it’s pretty much that as well, slightly above average.
