What was the worst decision for Rivera.

Being forced to become someone he wasn't after the 1-3 start last season knowing his job was on the line, embracing it, yet subtly & slowly reverting to his actual self until the 49ers game to come back full circle to the beginning of the year.  The more we were a lock for the playoffs, the softer he got last year.  Then once he got to the playoffs he was like..."phew, now I can be me again"

 

We're no different than the team at the beginning of last season and throughout 2012.  He only coaches to win when his job is on the line.  That riverboat stuff is done and it never truly was...all a facade.  Given the circumstances, last season proves just as much as this one as to why he should be fired.

Playing for the field goal today? Or kicking the field goal for the tie vs the Bengals... which we should have lost anyway.

 

Calling a timeout when the clock was running out on New Orleans in a 2011 game allowing them to then be able to kick the field goal in a game they ultimately won by three. No, I still haven't gotten over that one. It is still the single dumbest coaching mistake I have ever seen.

there have been many but years ago when the Falcons came back to beat us in the Georgia Dome with the famed Haruki Nakamura meltdown, he didn't go for it on 4th and 1 with Cam lunging. We all knew the Falcons were going to win at that point

      Not football related, but UNC basketball player Seth Trimble used his NIL money to buy the Ben & Jerry's franchise on Franklin Street in Chapel Hill. https://www.tarheelblog.com/unc-basketball/46475/seth-trimble-now-owns-ben-jerrys-in-chapel-hill Definitely a smarter move than buying a Lambo.

      2025 College Football Thread

      By Jay Roosevelt · Posted

      I was bored at work today so I typed up my ideas for CFB realignment: D1 college football would be split into 2 tiers of 5 conferences each: Power 5 (P5) and Group of 5 (G5) conferences. To bring the total number of FBS teams to an even 140, the following FCS teams would make the moved up into the G5 tier: North Dakota State, South Dakota State, Montana State and Sacramento State. The P5 tier would consist of 50 teams with 10 teams per conference. Every team would play every other team in it's conference every year. There would be no conference championship games in P5 tier since teams will play each other during the season to provide the head-to-head tie breaker. The G5 tier would consist of 90 teams in 5 conferences of 18 teams split into 2 divisions. Teams would play every team in their division every year along with teams from the other division on a rotating schedule. G5 conference championship games would be held the week following the Army-Navy game between the two division winners from each G5 conference. In the event that Army and Navy are the two division winners in the American conference, the Army-Navy game itself would decide the conference championship. P5 tier would retain the current 12-team playoff structure and seeding rules with the existing Bowl Game rotation remaining in place. G5 tier would use a 16-team playoff with conference champions guaranteed the top-5 seeds + homefield advantage in the 1st round. Seeds 6-16 would be decided by national rankings. Homefield advantage would be decided by seeding in the 2nd round with the G5 National Championship held at a neutral site. There would be a promotion/relegation system in place. Each P5 conference would have a satellite conference in the G5 as follows:  - ACC/American  - Big 10/MAC  - PAC/MWC  - SEC/Sun Belt  - SWC/C-USA Every 5 years the team in each P5 conference with the worst W-L record over the previous 5 seasons would be relegated to their conference's G5 satellite. Likewise, the team with the best W-L record during the previous 5 seasons will be moved up into the P5. Any other movement of teams between conferences would be subject to approval by the CFB Competition Committee and teams are only permitted to switch conferences once every 10 years. The Walter Camp Award will be awarded to the best player in P5 tier. The Maxwell Award will serve as the G5's equivalent award. The Heisman Trophy will be awarded to the best player in the nation, regardless of conference or tier. POWER 5 CONFERENCES: ACC: Clemson Duke Florida State Miami N.C. State North Carolina Pittsburgh South Carolina Virginia Tech West Virginia BIG 10: Illinois Indiana Iowa Michigan Michigan State Nebraska Notre Dame Ohio State Penn State Wisconsin PAC-10: Boise State BYU California Colorado Oregon Stanford UCLA USC Utah Washington SEC: Alabama Arkansas Auburn Florida Georgia Kentucky LSU Mississippi State Ole Miss Tennessee SWC: Arizona Arizona State Kansas State Missouri Oklahoma Oklahoma State SMU TCU Texas Texas A&M GROUP OF 5 CONFERENCES: AMERICAN: NORTH DIVISION: Army Boston College Connecticut Delaware Maryland Massachusetts Rutgers Syracuse Temple SOUTH DIVISION: Charlotte East Carolina James Madison Liberty Louisville Navy Old Dominion Virginia Wake Forest MAC: EAST DIVISION: Akron Bowling Green Buffalo Cincinnati Eastern Michigan Kent State Marshall Miami of Ohio Ohio WEST DIVISION: Ball State Central Michigan Iowa State Minnesota Northern Illinois Northwestern Purdue Toledo Western Michigan MWC: EAST DIVISION: Air Force Colorado State Montana State North Dakota State South Dakota State Tulsa UNLV Utah State UTEP WEST DIVISION: Fresno State Hawaii Nevada Oregon State Sacramento State San Diego State San Jose State Washington State Wyoming SUN BELT: EAST DIVISION: Appalachian State Coastal Carolina FAU FIU Georgia Southern Georgia Tech Kennesaw State UCF USF WEST DIVISION: Jacksonville State Middle Tennessee State South Alabama Southern Miss Troy Tulane UAB Vanderbilt Western Kentucky C-USA: EAST DIVISION: Arkansas State Houston Louisiana Louisiana Monroe Louisiana Tech Memphis Missouri State Rice Sam Houston State WEST DIVISION: Baylor Kansas New Mexico New Mexico State North Texas Texas State Texas Tech UTEP UTSA
