The “Everything is fine” mentality


hepcat

Recommended Posts

This entire week the whole team exuded an “everything is fine, we will get things together, blah blah” attitude.

Things aren’t fine. This team is awful. Maybe one of the worst in the NFL right now. A huge losing streak is incoming unless the team stops acting like everything is “fine” and realizes what they are doing isn’t working. 

I’m sick of a horrible almost cocky bullshit attitude from this team. Rivera so confident in his now awful defense that he punts on 4th and 1 with the best rushing QB in the game. Cam and the offense think the deep ball is magically going to start working despite literally never even trying it in a game so far this season.

The truth is this is a delusional group still thinking what worked in 2015 still works and I hope all of them either get their heads out of their asses or get shown the door by a new owner with a real set of brass balls.

Did you know the leading receivers for Philly are 2 TEs

Folks asking questions after the Giants games were derided but the obvious signs were there. Bit of of season left to get back to form but the offense is getting worse and the defense not getting better 

It was so weird, people completely dismissing any criticism of that game. Now look..

I've been saying for years that this exact mentality within our organization and throughout our fanbase is the exact reason we aren't a consistent winner or perennial contender.  The lack of urgency to get better by instead just defaulting to, "well, there's always next week..." "well, there's always next game," "well, there's always next year."  

It's just a cheap way of dodging accountability and responsibility, while allowing the status quo to be maintained.  And here we are...  again.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
