Editorial Looking Ahead: What Does Rhule Really Have to Build On Going Into Year 4?

Keep in mind Rhule had Christian McCaffrey & Baker Mayfield and found a way to lose a ton of games
Well yeah, McCaffrey only played in 10 games out of 34 between 2020 and 2021 because he was hurt. Mayfield didn't join until 2022. Rhule was fired five games into the season in 2022.

McCaffrey was traded to the 49ers in 2022.
 
I think its worth while to be disapointed with Key's hands later in the season. He did have some drops. But a lot of his criticsm over lack of production is a bit short sided:

Nebraska couldn't protect Raiola on any 5 or 7 step drops during the Big Ten season. This took away a lot of Dane Key's routes. That's not really on Key. That's on the staff for not protecting their franchise QB better which in turn limited a lot of the offensive weapons on the roster.
I think Key was fine and you could see the talent, but he was also a wasted asset as we just couldn't get him the ball enough.
