Haters ain’t hatin today

Couldn’t watch the game today so I’m not sure how good/bad Shula and Rivera were. Normally even when we win there are complaints about play calling, time management but all I could find in the threads was stuff about how we once again went into prevent and almost lost.

So what’s going on? Did they both have a good game at the same time?

At 6:51 in the 3rd quarter we kicked a FG to take an 11 pt lead.

Then Ron shut it down.

We proceeded to have 4 subsequent offensive possessions as follows: 3 and out, 5 and out, 3 and out, 3 and out.  In that time, Minnesota (surprise surprise surprise) scored 11 pts and tied the game.

Then Cam made an amazing individual play (AGAIN) and pulled Ron and Mike's fatty fat fats out of the fire (AGAIN).

Sound familiar?

And, oh, by the way... in one of those 3-and-outs WE ALMOST SURRENDERED A SAFETY because Ron/Mike think that its the "safe" and "less risky" thing to do at the 1-yard line to hand the ball off 3-yards deep in the end-zone.

You are absolutely right

how Shula continues to have a job is simply beyond me

And then on 3rd down, might as well air it out instead of trying to get the first down and move the chains in a more realistic manner.

Except for the incessant and constant runs on 1st down, its almost as if Shula draws random plays out of a Mason jar.

    • Saints trade WR Shaheed to Seahawks Seahawks get: WR Rashid Shaheed Saints get: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 fifth-round pick Seahawks' grade: A- Saints' grade: B+ One of the NFL's hottest passing teams just got better. The Seahawks currently rank third in EPA per dropback (0.25) and first in success rate on dropbacks (53%). And now they are adding Shaheed in a move that makes sense both on the field and in terms of where the Seahawks are as a franchise. Shaheed, 27, is averaging 1.8 yards per route run this season. But I think that sells him short because that number is down a bit from his career average entering this year (2.0) and he's been playing a role that includes running fewer vertical routes (34%) compared to last year (44%). Shaheed also has consistently posted above-average open scores in ESPN's receiver score metrics, including a 63 this season that ranks 28th among wide receivers. As a complement to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, I expect Shaheed will run downfield more often and be a bigger threat in that role than rookie Tory Horton was. When Cooper Kupp returns, he and Shaheed will make for a nice pair of secondary threats behind one of the best receivers in the league in Smith-Njigba. This is the time to strike for the Seahawks. FPI gives Seattle an 84% chance to make the playoffs and a 5% shot at winning the Super Bowl. This addition helps boost their chances without mortgaging their future the way the Colts did in the Sauce Gardner trade. Shaheed is a pending free agent but given the leverage of the moment for the Seahawks and their need I think they ought to be plenty willing to pay the cost. Shaheed is young enough to where if Seattle doesn't retain him he should sign a free agent contract that would yield Seattle a compensatory pick -- if the Seahawks don't nullify that pick with signings of their own. Because the Seahawks currently have $79 million in cap space next year, per OverTheCap, getting that compensatory pick is not guaranteed. The Saints are not rolling in cap space the way the Seahawks are -- and thus would land a compensatory pick for Shaheed -- but they got more draft capital this way than they otherwise would have. Considering New Orleans' 1-8 record, this should have been an easy decision.
