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.

    • AT got what he deserved. Be gone and enjoy those 4 catches and the bench and your pay cut
    • we have been bad offensively basically every game Rico Dowdle hasn't gone full Tecmo Bowl Bo Jackson on folks.  
    • Strongly disagree with the premise here. Without getting too into it, the biggest gripe for many has always been his footwork and pocket presence.  Shallow drops, happy feet, bad awareness - his overall technique is highly unconventional and not beneficial to his size/frame.  His upper body gets mad out of sync with his lower, drops back parallel to the LOS, erratic behavior. When you take that to the NFL level, you get swallowed up. And he got shellshocked and started bailing way too soon on plays. Unnecessary throwaways when he should step UP into the pocket and hit.   He got away with it in school because sooo much of his work was out of structure or quick hits to Jamo.  He was able to not bail early and stick in the pocket this last game. He also was dropping deeper than he usually does to create sight lanes. He can’t really outrun DLs so he needs to create that space via drop to survey properly. When he does these bs skip hops in the gun, he barely drops and is flooded. He needs to stay active with his feet but learn to step into the pocket more.  His average arm when he’s not doing this right turns Pennington esque.
