Except that Rivera has done it with 45 seconds left and 3 TOs which you thought was smart but was dumb.

I'd need to know specifics...who were we playing?  Where did we have the ball?  How was the offense playing?  What was the score?  It's really not a cookie cutter decision.

This was easily our weirdest half of football of the season.  We lead the NFL in turnover margin and we're -3, we had a bullshit fumble-6, we let an upbeat team dictate the tempo to us, and we just seem flustered overall.  Rivera was obviously pissed at one point and multiple times, our huddle looks disorganized and needing to calm down.  My biggest hope is we go into halftime and get focused and ready to crush some skulls in the second half.

THIS SAINTS TEAM can't and won't last a whole game with us. I don't care what anybody says, our physicality will take over nearing the 4th. No more lucky ass points for them.

I like your optimism but it is due to our own mistakes that have landed us in the deficit. If we play mistake free from here on out I agree with you.

    • Actually that 4400 was based on a 16 game season to match Bryce's 16 games this year. Your offense has to be to drive the ball when it matters. Bryce doesn't do that with any level of consistency. If you're building a team that isn't focused on your QB, then fine. Then there's no need to pay Bryce as a franchise QB because literally anyone else will do. If you're going to pay him 50m plus per season, you have to be able to put the team on his shoulders and know he's going to carry the load. So far, when the pressure is on to get it done, Bryce has fallen miserably short of the target. 4-6 to finish out the season and 0-2 when all we need is a win to secure a playoff spot isn't stepping up and proving yourself as a franchise QB. I'd say it's quite the opposite.  There isn't a single coach in this league that would take Bryce over Burrow and very few if any that would take Bryce over Prescott. Hurts didn't have to throw in 2025 because Philly's defense was disgusting and Saquan had a MVP season. But then again, Hurts has shown that he can when it counts, and then there's his signature. Philly runs the tush push to lethal perfection, but that's a play we can't even consider with Bryce. You used 3 QBs from teams that had no defense to show QB stats don't always matter. When we had the worst defense in the NFL, we didn't see Bryce step up and carry the offense and put up gaudy numbers in a losing season because we were playing catch up. It was pretty much the opposite.  What have we seen from Bryce consistently to consider offering him a top 10 NFL franchise QB level contract? At the end of the day, that's all that matters.   
    • I mean, what fanbase has high expectations when you have a QB like Bryce leading your team?
    • If you pay Bryce $50M a year you greatly limit your ability to put the type of team around him you need to have to have a chance to win. THAT is the problem. Hell, we can't win with him on a rookie contract. How the hell are we supposed to start winning with him paying him like a franchise QB and having to make tough roster decisions to accommodate his cap hit?
