The Post-Rhule Bump

[Pejorative Miscreant]

I think TMJ.  Don’t mean to be overly dramatic and it’s early but this appears to be an inflection point in his short career as a pro.  I know the team is not very good but he seems to be getting his chances and is rising up when called upon.

Never thought i'd say this about a coach, but Rhule was a cancer. The team just seems more alive and is fun to watch again, win or lose.

Mccaffrey.

Basically just about every player on team. But more important is the fans who can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. although it's still pretty far away, but you can see it now!!

Hubbard missed yesterday's game but, he performed well against the hated Bucs.   I believe he is our best alternate for Foreman. A pretty decent 1-2 punch.

This is valid, and also a mystery.

What the hell was Rhule doing that affected things so much? Gotta figure he was micromanaging somehow.

It's no exaggeration to say everything that man touched turned to sh-t.

That about sums it up. Ironically PJ Walker actually benefited from it. 

I was thinking that exact thing as I was reading this thread.  Rhule hampered even those who probably owe their NFL careers to their relationship with him at Temple and Baylor. 

The guy was basically a menace for an NFL organization. 

I once wrote a note to my boss after a meeting with a young program manager on some program that should not have ever seen the light of day, and it applies to Rhule.  My boss had a copy of my email hanging in his office until the day he retired, and may have left it hanging then.  It said:

The guy is an absolute fool.  To his credit, he does not let the mere fact that he is an absolute fool prevent him from speaking with great authority on subjects that he clearly knows nothing about.

But come on, the guy can just flat out coach

I am so happy that we get the reminder of our games this year to give the players a shot to prove themselves and show how poorly roster management was under Rhule.

Absolute garbage that all the guys stepping up now were not used at all or just ridiculously poorly. We got rid of 2 players (one of them who is really good), had to wait for an injury at C and then everyone looks amazingly improved from that point forward...after cutting out the 2 biggest cancers.

He certainly can, if you take into account he is an absolute fool at the NFL level.
