Matt Rhule

Rhule bumped his head on the way to practice. Rhule decided this was the day to treat grown men like college or high school players. Rhule yelled at everyone before making them run after the offense celebrated a touchdown.

This is the easiest way for a coach to get out of the locker room. If it weren't sealed already, Rhule's fate would have been sealed. They don't want to be treated like kids. No one protesting on the spot doesn't mean they're ok with his reaction

Rhule led the Bears to 11 wins and a Sugar Bowl appearance. Not much has gone well for the former college coach since he took over the Carolinas. He returned to college after Temple hired him as their head coach.

There are rumors that Rhule is going to be on the hot seat in Carolina. Five wins a year won't cut it in the National Football League. You have to win eight games in a row and be a mediocre player like Jeff Fisher. The Fisher/Garrett route will allow you to stay around five years past your expired date. You only get three and out if you win five times.

The writing is on the wall once you start making guys run extra after the offense scores. The writing had started for Rhule. With two perceived busts at quarterback, he is in a no-WIN situation. I would be willing to give Baker another year if he could prove that he is not a bust.

Then there's Sam, that's right. These are the two guys that are in charge of Rhule's future in the NFL. The only chance Rhule has of surviving this season is if he can get over 75% of the Cleveland Browns roster. They made the playoffs in 2020 and won a game against Pittsburgh. Rhule will return to college for the 2023 campaign.

Rhule looked like a bad look for a head coach. During his first two years in the league, he struggled. If that is the only way Rhule can get his players, he isn't good enough for the league. Winning can fix a lot of things on the field. The improvement would happen if the team gets into a range of eight or nine wins. He can keep them on his side by doing that. It's not possible to make them run after a touchdown because you can.

Rhule will be able to return to college once he finishes in Carolina. The Carolinas are behind the other teams in the south. The Falcons have a good chance of taking third place this year. Rhule would be counting down the days until the nightmare was over.
