I'm still confused

We have Luke Kuechly, Thomas Davis, and Shaq Thompson; arguably 3 of the best athletes at the linebacker position in the league...so why on earth was Roman Harper of all people matched up with Jimmy Graham of all people for the entire game??? If we had anyone else on Graham, the Seahawks struggle to get to 14 points. At the very least Tre Boston should be in for Harper on long passing downs

Rivera has a record of waiting until halfway in the season until he corrects safety or cornerback play .. Just look at the pervious years when he waited to finally put in Bene and Tre Boston .. Roman harper was murdered last night and he continued to keep him in .. Because of him and some of the drops by Funchess I ran out of beer well before the end of the game.

No he doesn't. 

Both Boston and Bene were injured last year which is why they didn't play at all. Rivera is not stubborn about veterans. This narrative has been proven wrong time and time again. 

Harper is the weak link in the secondary and we knew that going in. Boston is a FS and he got beat out by Coleman who has been playing pretty damn well for us this year. When Marlowe or someone else can step up and take the job from Harper, they will. 

Now I have no idea why they stuck Harper on graham, but it's not because there's an all-pro ready this minute to step in that Rivera is too stubborn to play. It's because he is unfortunately the best option at the position for us.

    • And really, it should be 4 reasons with the last one being that there were ZERO other offensive weapons on that team in 2024, opposing defenses only had to worry about one player all year long and they constantly double and triple teamed him right off the snap all season.  In 2023, we still had Jacob Cowing who had 90 catches that year and was drafted by the 49ers last year, so teams couldn't just send everyone after T-Mac on every passing down.
    • I wonder if the Hornets view Kon and McNeeley more as forwards and plan to ship off Green/Okogie/Smith for center help. I hope they don’t plan to ship off Sexton as I like what he brings to the team. (2) G - Ball, Mann, Simpson (two-way) (3) G - Sexton, Dinwiddie, Connaughton (3) F - Miller, Knueppel, McNeeley, James (two-way) (3) F - Bridges, Williams, Salaun (3) C - Diabate, Kalkbrenner, Plumlee
    • 3 main reasons he was better in 2023 and none of them concern me for his NFL prospects 1. Totally new coaching staff that was a massive downgrade and had god awful play calling and designs, the entire fan base was ready to run the coaching staff out of town a month into their first season and the play caller ended up getting changed because it was so bad. 2. Along with the staff downgrade, his QB played significantly worse after being the Pac 12 Freshman of the Year in 2023.  Constantly missed T-Mac when he was wide open, lost out on a number of TDs and a good amount of yardage, half the time T-Mac still almost made miraculous catches on the bad passes too. 3. He hurt his ankle over the summer and missed all of fall camp only to return to practice a few days before the season started and I think he had to deal with it all season long and was slightly limping at times mid season too, but kept fighting through it to still be a 1st team All American.
