......we have an awesome team....  I firmly believe that we CAN every game ahead of us.   Will we?  I do not know.  But as a fan,  I will watch every single upcoming game with the belief that we are able to win!  And yes, also against the Saints (x2).  Getting so tired of the negative mindset of the Huddlers.

This is Ron's 8th year and everyone has seen this all before. Being dissatisfied after such a large sample size is quite reasonable.

Oh stop with this optimistic rose colored glasses/glass half full BS.  The team is in a tailspin with no end in sight...If its not Missed FGs/PATs, its dropped passes or crappy D coverage.  We aren't going to suddenly 'figure it out' and run the table.  This team is dysfunctional in multiple areas...except our QB.  It has to be maddening to him, playing better then he did in 2015 and we are crapping the bed.

Rivera's decision making has single handily snatched defeat from the jaws of victory two weeks in a row. You don't go for 2 because you don't trust your kicker to make a PAT, and then play for a 50 yard field goal a week later. That's just coaching malpractice.

I've been a big Rivera fan and supporter for years, but he's lost it. Poor coaching attrition is a real thing, talent can only keep you afloat for so long. He's lost the locker room and ruined this season.

His losing tbe locker room is not completely his fault.

    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
