Rivera: “The guys are trying”


Tbe

Recommended Posts

lol...well geez bud. I guess as long as everyone is trying their hardest.

From the Athletic...

Rivera was a little defensive after the game, referring to injuries and the effort shown by both his players and staff.

“I just think that everybody needs to understand that these guys are trying. They’re doing the best they can,” he said. “The coaching staff is working their asses off. You look at the mix of players they have had to deal with, the guys (they) have tried to work with, I think our guys are doing things they need to do, giving themselves the best chance to win.”

That “guys are trying” line won’t go over well among segments of the fan base.

ok so if you're trying that hard and still losing to one of the worst teams in football then that means you're not good enough for the job

No kidding. So this is what we can expect when everyone is working their asses off?

Next.

    • I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.
    • Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.
    • What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
