Rc2catch Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 He never should have fired Brady. The offense was on a constant decline ever since. Guy was making desperation moves last year like they were a contender. When in reality they could have saved all those draft picks and money and just kept Teddy Bridgewater. I’m happy to see him gone, he looked like he was ready to go. They put him out of his misery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsVet Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Tepper is another know-it-all owner who has no clue what he's doing. Doesn't help that the organization took half-measures trying to get a QB with Bridgewater, Darnold, and now Mayfield. And, IIRC, Rhule went all defense in his first draft. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jauronimo Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 1 minute ago, Beck Water said: What a Surprise. I'm kinda torn between pity for Baker Mayfield - 5 years in the league, and the only year he got to spend a second season with the same coach and OC he was injured - and the feeling he's been "hoist by his own petard" in lobbying for Kitchens as both OC and head coach his 2nd season. So what is this plan to finish the season? One would hope a team wouldn't fire a guy in early October without it. I don't think Baker is the sharpest crayon in the shed but a petard? I think you've gone a bit far and I'm not totally comfortable with you using that term. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did the keep the GM in place when they fired Ron Rivera and then a year later let Rhule have a say in hiring a GM thing which I never like.

17islongenough Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I would feel bad for him but he's still owed 40 million. What an awful contract 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H2o Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Can't say you didn't see this one coming. He's not built for the NFL. He'll go right back to a college gig after a year or so off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideNine Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I find it interesting that both McD and Beane were on that staff and not recognized as targets that org could promote. Talk about letting talent walk out the door.... Although it did seem like they still held close ties to that FO for all the personnel exchanges they have cooked up since. Does not really hold a candle to ol' Ralphy giving Polian and Butler the boot. Ushered in the darkest years of being a Bills fan - at least for me. Polian and Butler went out and ended up resurrecting the Colts and Chargers' franchises. Glad the good lord saw fit to keep me around long enough to see the worm turn and JA 17 suit up for our team. Feels good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
US Egg Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 (edited) Rhule #1: QB’s generally make the HC look competent or not, rarely the other way around. Edited October 10, 2022 by I am the egg man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FilthyBeast Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 If NFL teams are smart they'll never hire a college coach again especially after the Urban Meyer fiasco last year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixxxer Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I really believed we were going to see stadium renderings before any HC being fired. Anyway, the guy was not good at his job, next guy to be fired, Nate Hackett. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msw2112 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 There are few college coaches who have been successful in the NFL - Jimmy Johnson and Jim Harbaugh are the two who come to mind. Beyond that, there just aren't a whole lot. Some big-time college coaches have washed out in the NFL, many of whom were mentioned above. Nick Saban, Urban Meyer, Steve Spurrier, Chip Kelly, and now Matt Rhule is the latest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
