2021 Who is our 'Rival'?

Im trying to think about who is our biggest rival and I think that changes through the years...

 

In our prime, around the 2015 team I would have said that Seattle would have been our biggest rival team. The Cam vs Russel and Luke vs Wagner. But I feel like that has fizzed out. 

The last 2 years I could maybe see that being the Saints (cause fugg'em Saints).. or even the Bills/WTF with all the Carolina connections. 

This year... Im not sure who feels like the biggest rivalry game. 

 

Who do you guys 'feel' it is?

Back when I was in high school, a guy I knew who was an assistant coach at an opposing school asked me that question. I named his school.

He responded, "You know who our rival is?" I asked who.

He said, "Whoever we're playing this week."

That always kinda stuck with me.

Fantasy-wise...its us and Tampa Bay dueling it out at the end of the season to win the division.

Reality-wise it's whoever we play next, because we're a team with a losing record that doesn't matter to anyone but ourselves.

I always thought it was the Saints given they kept trying to take out Smitty and injure our players and poo all the time. Followed by get off our field meg ryan and such.

Perhaps it was Jerry Richardson this whole time lol

Never knew NFL teams had rivals, or chants.  Thought that was just college.

I’ll ask an old John McKay question....which rival/opponent is the sweetest victory, which the most painful loss.  Regardless of the opponents win/loss history?

    • Surely, since Young is the qb he is, a 3 year NFL starter, a qb with exceptional command of a playoff team, and many of us are just too stupid and blind to recognize, he will have no trouble mopping the floor with anyone from this list of has-beens and never-weres.
    • After two seasons, I definitely have strong opinions of his playcalling and even stronger ones on his game coaching abilities.  Isolating AT as logic for BY success doesn't make any sense. Look at his body of work, his ratings in intermediate and deep, his bad throw percentages or FOR fuging SURE his terrible footwork. As I have continued to stress, he is an arm throwing, scrambling QB with significantly below average arm strength and underwhelming athletic ability for a modern QB. The "clutch" stuff is a lot of wishful thinking for a guy with a very low career winning percentage. I have never heard clutch attached to a QB that has the kind of winning percentage that he does. It doesn't logically make sense. I understand you are keeping your hope alive but most of us can see what I think you will eventually come to realize, he just isn't an NFL caliber QB.  Sunk cost fallacy is holding onto assets in the hope of recovering a return, rather than taking your losses and reinvesting them into something that may pay off. This is the exact opposite of sunk cost fallacy by keeping a failed asset. He has to be one of the football dumbest players we have ever had in the history of this franchise. Easily the most football dumb 1st round draft pick. Yeah well he seems to fug that up pretty often too. Further back into the stands, I would say.
    • I had no idea that this dude was our offensive coordinator Brad Idzik.
