Completely Apathetic and Expected that Loss


TylerDurden

Recommended Posts

Sorry to say, but I have now readjusted my expectations after having to recalibrate them under the Rivera Era, which means while many of you expected an easy win today, I fully expected just what we saw - a lazy, uninspired, unprepared team (outside of Cam, DJ, and Curtis).  It's the same poo every year, and after Atlanta, Washington, and Pittsburgh this season, I knew what to expect, and it's what we got.  Rivera does the same thing every year, but after shitting the bed already 3 games this year, instead of the usual 1 or 2 we get, Rivera came in today with the same lack of urgency and preparedness, as expected...  and once again, he fuged around for 3 quarters, started feeling the heat on his ass, and decided fo go for 2, hoping Cam would bail him out again, per usual...  but the 2 pt call was pretty shitty in itself and an awful Gano and awful gameplan from Rivera and Washington proved to be too much of a burden to overcome.  

I can't wait to get this mediocre season over with so Tepper can go ahead and punt Rivera's ass out of here and get an actual coach in here that helps Cam instead of hinder him, only to then turn around and beg him to bail you out for being such a shitty coach every fuging week.

I dont even give a poo if Washington is fired now...  I was convinced after Pittsburgh that this team was done.

Absolutely.  When Rivera said last week that "poo happens" and he was going to tell the team to forget it and move on I knew we were going to be limp.  Taking time off after a loss like that just screams "don't hate me guys!" from the coach.  He's trying to be their friend instead of their coach.

He should have screamed and fuging got in people's faces and benched guys who didn't perform.  Instead we get Funchess over Moore yet again, an apathetic team all around, ill-prepared for a bad team after 10 days prep and horrible game-day decisions.   But hey!  At least we didn't lose all of our time outs due to play clock issues like we did every other fuging game this year!  :)

I don’t see that happening

    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
