People raved about Rhule’s press conference but having watched both press conferences, Judge absolutely killed it. Easy to see why Mara and Gettleman were blown away. Rhule came across as a college rah rah guy. Judge comes across as a leader, a teacher and a motivator. Tough and hard nosed. After listening to the blandness of McAdoo and Shurmur the past 4 years, what a breath of fresh air Judge is. I’m and excited for the future and seeing Judge build this program.
+1
For now, I'm just glad we didn't choose Rhule.
Hopefully Judge has the right stuff.
Reality is that Judge has worked with bigger and better programs and talent. One daily challenge will be professional players (adults) and he has more experience workng at NE.
His biggest challenge is this organizations selection of talent. Hopefull they just draft everything he has worked with and accepts minus injury bug.
Judge is hard core real deal!
I get the car salesy vibe from Rhule too. He's a smooth talker, but if you ask me who I believe, that JUDGEment is easy!

It was just a PC. It was better than Rhule's though. Judge is the more intelligent man. He has all the traits necessary to be great. I hope we get the fuck out of his way. Hire whoever the fuck he wants.
+10000 for getting out of his way.
Give him the f'n keys, and only ask when and how often he needs the car washes, or tires rotated.
I think the Panthers found a really good coach who will probably have success for them.
I'm very happy with the Giants' selection, though, and I think he's going to surprise people.

Exactly. I guess it's expected that some will compare the two, but there is no reason that both can't be successful, or fail.
BUT as a newbie HC does he have the credentials to pull it off? Will he get the resistance that Col Tom got, until after some time the vets (e.g. Strahan) came around?
I don't see him being as forgiving as PS to the "puppies" for missed assignments.
JJ said the talent is there; it will just take time. Operationally I translate that as I will play the puppies (vs "hired hands") but give them tough love; if they screw up they should be wary of coming back to the sidelines (Parcells).
The fine line is how you follow up, and Bill was a master at that depending on the player. (Dabo Swinney likewise; Etienne vs Nolan Turner - an insider comment for Clemson fanatics.)
Don’t know about phony, but I definitely thought it was more generic. Blew a lot of smoke up Tepper’s butt, not much content in terms of philosophy.
Judge’s PC might as well has been his introductory speech to the players... more specific and to the point
Judge on the other hand just killed it. It's obvious he spent a ton of time preparing it - or he is perhaps a brilliant orator. I'm guessing the former, that he's obsessive in preparation for wherever task is at hand. That's probably a good trait.
