Rivera and Cam post game presser

I am just miffed why our front 7 has gone to poo after being so dominant last year.  

 

It's why the secondary suddenly looks poor again, when the front 7 is strong, like in the first two games, it helps cover up faults in the Secondary, when it's weak, the secondary gets toasted like in the Steelers and Ravens games

I don't think he is being out coached. He only has 3 weapons on offense and the main one can't run on his injured ankle or get any protection.

Rivera's mantra had been "preparation." I'll give him Tolbert, but there's no excuse for not expecting Stewart or Williams, or both, to get injured, and everyone but him and Gettleman expected the o line to suck. He also folded on Hardy, so yeah, he's being outcoached. All these other issues that are partly his own doing can't be used as excuses at game time. He should have a plan by now to overcome them, and be able to think on his feet in games. That's coaching.

Not all losses are created equal.  You could literally point to one or two plays in the Seattle, Buffalo and Arizona losses last season as the reason we lost.  That is in no way comparable to the losses of the last 2 weeks when the whole team has crapped the bed.  If RR thinks the two situations are in any way comparable then he is part of the problem, not part of the solution.

Supposedly this team was lacking hustle in training camp, and I heard cam last week talking about the offensive team having to many "my bad" plays from one guy or another consistently during drives. The Defense and the O-line look really soft, and not unprepared physically and Mentally. Special teams look very unprepared as well. Some of that is definitely coaching.

    • I’m not suggesting that tanking is the right thing to do every time. I do think that if you have guys like Burns and Moore that you will trade anyway, then you should think about tanking and getting max value, especially if you want to grab a QB that might go 1st overall. We tried to do both. Trade CMC for picks but don’t take 3 1sts and a 2nd for Burns and Moore. Instead, we won a few games and then threw in Moore on a trade because we didn’t tank and we gave Burns away for a 2nd. Can you honestly say that fully tanking, by trading away all our best guys who weren’t in future plans, in 2022 wouldn’t have made our team better now? We wanted a rookie QB and we didn’t extend the main guy we didn’t want to trade. We were 100% in full tear down and we could have been a playoff team last year if we used the 4 extra 1sts or 3 1sts and 2 2nds (counting picks saved on Young by being pick 3 or 4 not 9) on D. Culture building is funny. It took three coaching changes to seemingly get there. Morgan and Canales weren’t in charge when we “protected” our culture. We still traded Burns and Moore, we just lost 3 first round picks in the process. Also, do you think the Eagles are in a bad place because of their coach clearly tanking a game for a draft pick? Remember that? It was obvious and the coach was fired. The funny thing is that this is something teams do all the time but they add their stars (like Cam in 2016, CMC, Burns, etc.) to IR or rest them in week 16/17. Pederson was just dumb and made it obvious. He could have just sat his starters to start. Anyway, did that incident tank risk their credibility? Did Barkley decide to not sign with them? Seems like their SB win and other SB visit say they are just fine. Winning makes culture, picking the right coach makes culture, trading away guys who are on other teams in a year for top picks and keeping more picks by having a better starting pick to trade up, does not impact culture. If it helps you win, culture will be fine, ask the Eagles.
    • Should get plenty of push up the middle with Derrick, Ashawn and Bobby B. That makes an Edge's job much easier since QB's don't have a pocket to step up in. Couple that with a few A gap blitzes with LBs and Safeties, and QBs should be flushed out like Duck Hunt.
