For the Fire Rivera Group

If we get rid of Rivera, you have to go younger and a totally different direction.  No retreads, no coordinators who've never gotten their shot (maybe it's for a reason), and no life long defensive/ST guys.  No Jim Schwartzs, Dave Toubs or Rick Dennisons.  Think of the Hornets signing with Borrego.  

Jim Bob Cooter, John DeFilippo, Brian Daboll.  

With Daboll--for how god awful the Bills should be, their offense is somehow moving the ball with Josh Allen.  If he gets them rolling with Derek Anderson, I think that would be a guy to look at.  He's 43, was Bama's OC, has prior NFL experience.  

Cooter and DeFilippo have lost some flare from performances this season after being previously mega-hyped but I think both will be HCs in the near future.

This thread was contrived on faulty logic.  Nowhere in sports do you accept mediocrity or worse because you can't think of anyone better.  Better is out there--you have to find it.  If you can think of someone better, then they are not better or they would have a job.

  I would rather take a chance on a prospect than accept the current prognosis

 Yes. In 2013, the Eagles should have not gotten rid off Andy Reid to hire Chip Kelly. 

  Using your logic, you can justify getting rid of any coach, eventually. Sooner or later, some other coach will do well too. 

Now, your turn. Do you think the chances we improve if we fire Rivera are greater than the chances we get worse? 

I said you can't spin the question, remember? You don't get to pretend that Kelly is still their coach.

So lemme rephrase it again: Comparing where they were with Reid to where they are right now under Doug Pederson, should the Eagles have hung on to Reid instead?

It’s pretty simple... you want Ron gone. Who do you want to replace him? Don’t bring up Tepper, he has nothing to do with this discussion. Who do YOU want coaching the team? It ain’t rocket science 

Bro he's dodging the easiest question that's been asked in this thread. It's comical at this point, how does someone want change but can't name anyone to take over. 

It'll take Ron and Co to completely fall on their faces to get fired, people forget we have the 5th most wins in the league since 2012 or 2013.

This thread was contrived off 0 logic at all rofl.

Scot and CP done owned the thread so at this point it's just two morons looking dumber and dumber.

Valid.

One question I'd ask of anyone throwing out the "you can't fire a guy who's had the team in the playoffs" argument, how did you feel about firing Gettleman?

For history's sake, if we ever hire an offensive minded coach it would not be the first time. Remember Seifert? I, along with probably everyone else, would like to forget about him. But he was our coach from 1999 to 2001.

This thread has been interesting but I have no horse in this race.

I know you're not being like that and it isn't your intent but imma be sarcastic anyway, just in case there are those out there that would run with your post.

"Yea cuz that one time we had a offensive minded HC and it didn't work out makes up for the rest of the history of the team, which hasn't worked out either"

Seifert was a defensive coordinator and a defensive backs coach before he became a head coach.

I'd add but from what I've heard, Seifert was a colossal a--hole.

    • The team wore down and shots stopped falling.  Ball, Miller and Kon have to play well.  At least 2 of the 3.  2/16…0/6. That ain’t gonna cut it.     If Bridges and White are the only ones hitting from 3, it’s not gonna go well.  The 3’s make Moose and Kalk work.  No 3’s it gets too crowded for them with all the bodies crashing the boards.    (Kalk needs to add strength, something awful tho.)
    • Was at the game and NYCFC honestly outplayed CLT the whole way.  Khalina and Zaha carried the team.  Zaha's wife on IG making it sound like he's gone come July. They're going to have to pay him or find a big time replacement because the team looks like pretty lost without him.
    • No one's saying LaMelo has no blame we're responding to you acting like he's the reason they lost. The scapegoating and blaming the teams woes on his personality is where it's like Cam Newton all over again. It was a failure on multiple fronts and primarily Lee's. Dude said ON AIR pregame that they had to protect the paint and if that was his gameplan going in he couldn't have botched it more. As the commentators said Ball's a rhythm guy and Orlando was preventing him for getting any kind of flow going. I'm a normie watching on TV and said they needed to bait them into fouling to combat that. They didn't even try until the 2nd half when it was too late. I think it's fair to expect the star to overcome whatever but LaMelo was not the problem in that game and he's not what is holding the team back. He's the only reason they're flirting with being a great team. I kinda put the center play on Lee too. Moose is great until he's up against a big who can body him. We've always known that and that's what Kalkbrenner is for. I don't know if it would have changed much but Kalkbrenner should have had more minutes than him.  And moving forward with the center position, I just think it's the time to trade Diabate while his stock's high and that's not an indictment of his game. He's like an evolved combination of Biyombo and PJ. He's a great rim protector and the strength issue is just what you're going to have to deal with if you want that. But Kalkbrenner is perfectly capable of protecting the rim and we gotta get away from the undersized centers or it'll always be a problem for us.
