Rivera can learn a lot from Andy Reid

With 1 min 55secs left to play and up 16 against the Denver Broncos, the Cheifs decided to let their DT throw a Td pass. Why? According to Reid:

"I've learned this over time: You can't score enough points against these teams,'' Reid said. "We don't take anything for granted. We're going to score as much as we can do it.''

Remember this the next time we blow a lead by going into conservative mode.

Many coaches can learn a lot from Andy Reid.

Clock management is absolutely at the bottom of that list.  

Especially in the Super Bowl.

Reid is one of the greatest offensive minds the NFL has ever seen. He's arguably second only to Bill Walsh in his understanding of the West Coast offense. His effectiveness at running that system and the brilliance of his play designs have made numerous average quarterbacks look like superstars.

But yeah, the biggest criticism of him tends to be poor game management (just like Rivera). That, and the fact that his teams have a tendency to fade in the postseason.

The Chiefs are/could be a decent parallel for us. The defense, the run game, a mobile QB, great TE, and questionable coaching at times. 

Since Eric Berry isn't walking through our door, though...let's at least learn the quicker pass offense that helps Reid's QB and WRs.

Outside of them both being mobile, I couldn't disagree more.  Cam and Alex aren't close to being the same "type" QB.

IMO.

Andy was most likely thinking about the Chiefs highly improbable win over the Panthers when he said this.  

Rivera grabbed defeat from the jaws of victory that day.

Can't pin that one on Ron

Cam's int and KB's fumble gave that one away...horrible loss...likely worst of the year

Cam and KB's poor decision making/play were only fuel on the fire started by Ron's "play not to lose" approach once this team has a lead.  

Ron lacks a killer instinct.

Which, to this day, baffles me.

In his introductory presser, Rivera came off like a guy with no mercy.  It was like watching Conan describe what was best in life.

Somewhere amidst the adversity of the first two seasons, Rivera went from barbarian to librarian.

I am half expecting to hear Ron say "It is what it is" and "a punt is a good play" in his next presser, then his transition to Fox ball will be complete.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
