Hard Truths-GM Edition


davos

Recommended Posts

Ron Rivera is a great man.

Ron Rivera is a good coach.

Ron Rivera inculcates a great locker room culture.

Ron Rivera is not in the top tier of coaches, but not the lowest

Ron Rivera will not survive 3 GMs and 4 GM changes.  

End. 

Prediction: 2018 will give us a new coach and new GM.  Hurney is not going to get it back as so many assume.  

Now let's beat the sh*t out of New England.

If he wins a third COTY award, do you think he might make this list?

It's his lack of consistency that keeps him off the list...at least for now.  Also, we always start the year slowly and it take a while to get the gears going.  That's something the top coaches don't do.  Occasionally, sure, but not every year.  Even when we win early, is usually because we are fortunate to play a soft opening schedule which allows us to get away with not playing well (see 2015 and this year).  In order for Rivera to join the upper echelon of coaches, he needs to do a better job of getting the team ready to play right out of the gate.  We can't always count on a soft schedule to get us by until we start clicking.

Top coaches also don't field teams that play weaker in the second half.

    • After watching Dan for 3 yrs now, I think I understand his plan. It’s a simple plan that should work for the long run.     I saw some of this last yr. Dan wants a vet and a young player at each position. I really think we go OT if one they like there. Moton is aging, Icky will not be back until 27, if ever. We need to get ahead of the tackle problem 
    • You are just stressing too much about these particular positions. You want to upgrade from Bryce and I understand that but you aren’t going to really get that without getting into a bidding war for a QB2 potential QB1 like Willis. You could possibly trade for Mills or the backup for Chicago but they are still gambles and their teams will won’t decent picks.  Again the Eagles thought KP was a capable enough backup to trade for him once their backup was hurt and won a Super Bowl with him as QB2. The point is most teams aren’t rolling with some stud QB2/3 that is going to push even a bottom tier starter. They are better off the building their roster in other areas. The Rams are rolling with Bennett right now as QB2 for example.  The goal is winning absolutely. We overachieved last year even with stumbling into the playoffs. Another year and this staff needs to take the next step in building a team. Will Grier has little to no impact on that….
    • Three straight first round WRs is straight up Matt Millen poo. Considering the draft capital we have tied up on Bryce after that trade we would basically have spent damn near all of our draft capital in recent years on QB and WR just to put one of the most anemic passing offenses in the league on the field. Clown show poo.
