He’s been underwhelming (obviously) but I don’t think you’ll see him move on.
To me, it seems that:
1. Satt clearly has Rhules full permission to run the offense how he envisions it down the road
and
2. Satt knows he doesn’t have the players to run it how he wants. (Inherited a weak roster, TE playing QB, Sims is worse than anyone could ever imagine).
The reason the offense looks bad is a combination of these two. He calls some plays that we clearly won’t be a successful with with the current roster we have and I think Rhule is very OK with that. We’ve seen improvement and we are by all accounts, exceeding expectations.
In Rhules mind, I would guess that any win after win #3 is just window dressing and he is looking at the remainder of this season with a process oriented mindset instead of an outcome oriented mindset.
Rhule knows that if we have as good of a defense next year and our offense becomes at least average, we’re looking at a 9-10 win season. He’s gonna be patient and if that means the offense looking like shit while getting quality game reps for developing players, he ain’t gonna lose a minute of sleep about it. One of Rhules best character traits that may pay off down the road is that he doesn’t give a shit what it looks like. He cares about 1.) the final score and 2.) getting better.
And guess what? We are currently having our best season in 7 years with arguably our worst roster since the 1960’s.
Quit bitching and enjoy the process.
