Rivera taking one more

I like the idea of giving female coaches a shot.

Yes--they think differently--without the bravado and macho chest pounding.  They are methodical and must know their stuff.  They may not have experience as players, but they understand people.  No offense dudes, but I have been an educator on all levels for 30 years--women are better teachers.  So make snide, sexist comments all you want, but if you sell them short, it is probably  because you are.

My thing is I don’t see an NFL HC risking his multi million dollar salary for the sake of social politics by putting someone he doesn’t actually think is the best person for the job on his staff. So if he wants to hire a female coach, I’m just gonna go ahead and assume he considers her the best candidate for the job and since it’s his paycheck on the line and not mine, leave it at that.

The only irony here is that the coach in question is Rivera, who few of us regard as much of an outside the box thinker.

    • I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan 
    • Cowboys. Patriots. Couldn't ask for two bigger villains.
    • I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
