Rivera: "Learned from first Atlanta game to stay aggressive"


Jmac

Recommended Posts

 "Cannot expect to win this football game by kicking field goals" Quotes provided per S.Reed  and J.Person.  So Rivera is saying all the right things today at the podium today. He really should have come to this conclusion after previous Atlanta games  (actually we have heard this song before), but better late then never. Here's hoping that he doesn't get sphincter freeze when it comes down to the aggressive attitude.  Hopefully he takes Shula aside and relates to him that the red zone play calling needs to produce. They can beat this team if they stick to their guns and do what they say. Pound the piss out of them with Stewart then slice them up with K.B, Cotch, and Olsen.  Have faith in the offense to get a yard or two when needed and go for it. If your going to talk the talk , you better walk the walk.

Really Ron ... how insightful.  Seems like we heard that before. 

 

Should have said, 'It was asinine to put on the brakes and leave our kicker with a 46 yd field goal attempt.  Especially considering how well we were moving the ball and the time left on the clock.  But hey, I am still learning.  Next time I won't bring a skirt and will let my players finish the game ... without handcuffs and poor game management'

I was doing family Xmas stuff and didn't get to see the game, but I saw that we started kneeling to run the clock down with like 2 minutes left on the 2 yard line instead of scoring. How does this fit in with the 'stay aggressive' philosophy?

Well, you see, it's a process.

at the end of the game??? No point in trying to score when you can go into victory formation.

Got no beef with that. Browns couldn't stop clock and it ended game.

Techically, if you score a quick TD you then give the Browns a chance to still win

Seriously? That's your example of them not staying aggressive? That's just fuging dumb. The Browns were out of time outs. The game was over. Kneel down is the only play in that situation. Why risk a turnover when all you have to do is kneel on the ball and win the game. Goddamn...

    • 5 straight completions in the 4th quarter to get into the red zone and then score a stand up rushing TD and celly in one of the best defenses faces to bring the score within 1 possession against the super bowl champs is "stunned" to you?  
    • yes, if you read what I said - that was due to his record breaking 245 yard 4th quarter performance in garbage time when the Seahawks were already celebrating. If Bryce puts up big numbers in the 4th quarter, people like you are quick to call it garbage time stats but seem to get selective when other QB's do it because it doesn't fit your narrative.  also, I'm logical enough to admit that Drake is a great QB and his performance had a lot to do with his protection, play calling, and other aspects. The game does not fall completely on the QB. Just like how the Panthers were still in the game vs Seattle until Horn's penalty changed that. It is a team sport, so many factors, players, refs, coaches are involved and it only takes one thing to change the game. the obsession with Bryce is just nauseating at this point and if you pay attention on here, it's the same 10 users quoting and pieing each other. it's super weird and everywhere else you go, opinions on Bryce are trending upwards. the way the season ended, the vibe at the stadium, the performance, should have everyone excited about this next season. Idk, maybe I just look at life and my entertainment outlets differently than others.
    • Are we sure something hasnt happened to him because that seems pretty shitty to simply abandon this place
