Just how deeply disliked was Matt Rhule?

I think the more apropos title would be, "How disliked was Matt Rhule as a coach?" I do believe that as a person, some people actually liked him. I think that his coaching philosophy was a dark cloud over all, but that when players and staff actually have time to reflect over time, they'll be able to discriminate between the two. Rhule's modus operandi seems more a match for developing college and high school kids than developing men in a professional setting. 

I think that Rhule likes to impose his control, and that doesnt necessarily work well with free grown men. Men control themselves if they believe in a process that shows results.

Kinda makes me wonder if the attempts to downplay "keep pounding" might have come from Rhule.

Seeing "The Brand" painted around the building was def Rhule and very lame. I think it was on Higgins Youtube channel he filmed his signing day and there was dumb generic poo posted all over the place

Based on some of the reactions we're seeing, a lot.

Damn 😳

You didn't get that vibe watching the team play? Remember the Baker from Cleveland? The confidence he came in with each week going into each game? That has been gone. 

I know the team is just bad right now, but Baker's demeanor here compared to everywhere else he's been told me everything that I needed to know.

He wasn't just a coach though.

He was in charge of "the program" and from what we're hearing it sounds as though he was treating staff like peons.

It's not the players who are speaking out...yet.

Yeah at what other team does the social media staff talk about how toxic the HC interaction was? That's new level and has nothing to do with how bad of an actual x and o's coach he is.

What was Rhule's "thing"? Like what did he come in being good at? Most NFL Head Coaches now have a specialty of some kind and it's beyond being a position coach for those who are successful.

College coaches make their programs about them and that’s ok in college 

NFL is about players which he could never fully understand. The amount of “weaseling” I heard he did was atrocious. Thank god this chapter is over.

This is a product driven business which did not produce. You’re out.

I'm sorry, did you hear accounts that weren't reported?  If so, would you mind sharing?

    • 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.
