MATT RHULE'S POST-LOSS COMMENTS TO THE MEDIA

Actually, I don't think Rhule has dodged any bullets yet.  He has led a sheltered existence behind his contract. I really believe that Rhule has a 'deal' with Tepper for three (or maybe four..) years in a sort of 'undisturbed' state. And I don't think that is necessarily a bad idea. Rhule had a REALLY tough first year and a half...only starting to calm down about mid-way through last year.  So, I don't think he has ever been in any real danger of losing his job.  But, he might be next year.!!
