I'd want to know details before I say something like that.

Honestly, we know enough. From NFL.com:

Reports of angst between Mills and the defensive line surfaced this offseason after the group underperformed in 2021. But Rivera noted that the decision to fire Mills stemmed from more recent philosophical differences.

"It's about this offseason and training camp," Rivera said.

His firing probably stems from underperformance, and Rivera didn't like the way things were progressing during the offseason and camp. It sounds like it was a long time coming. Rivera was reticent to just fire his friend so easily, so he gave him a chance, but things didn't work out.

Rivera needed to go.  Sometimes messages become stale and a change of scenery is necessary.  Getting rid of Ron wasn’t the problem, we just replaced him with a trash heap 

Yep he totally ruined McCaffrey's career with his terrible decision making.

That's still only a base level explanation.

I'd like to know more.

This is very valid but 99.9% of the fans here wanted Rivera gone. Be careful what you wish for as they say.

Nothing Valid about that, Rhule should have been fired after year 2, just like the situation we are in now. 

He fuged around and won a CoTY in year 3, which really didnt have poo to do with his coaching.

We then had him as a HC for 9 years, which was 7 too many.

We would have been so much better off with a HC that would have developed Cam instead of just ramming him into a brick wall over and over until he broke. 

fug Rivera.

Rhule is terrible, but "coach of the year" is nothing special.

Take a look at the last twenty or so winners of that particular award and you'll see why.

I would say that the two seasons where he won the award were special seasons as one being where he gained his foot hold and the other was just dominant! And you have to come off of that curmudgeonly attitude bruv. Coach of the year definitely is nothing to sneeze at. The list is pretty solid outside of the pair of Bears' coaches Jauron and Nagy. I will give you those two, especially Nagy, oh yeah and Jason Garrett. If we are talking shite coaches, you always have a point with Jason Garrett.

Coach of the Year tends to go to guys who outperform expectations, but outside of the times when it's been awarded to Bill Belichick it rarely goes to a coach who wins a championship.

As to Rivera, both he and John Fox produced decent seasons, but neither produced consistency.

The truly great coaches don't just flash once in a while. They win on a regular basis.

I see that, but also the man's QB got hurt. We were 6-2 until Cam got hurt second to last year, then the next year they won five games in a row with Kyle Allen. I feel like Tepper wanted his guy so bad he just quickly ushered in the next era of suck.

    • When a certain food allows it, add vinegar to it if you are a dietetic. Research has shown that vinegar inhibit starch digestion and allows food to stay in the stomach longer. In turn, this helps to reduce the chances of your blood glucose levels from rising after you have eaten a meal. If you have Gestational Diabetes then the concept of "eating for two" needs to be forgotten. You'll need to reduce your food intake to small amounts every few hours to keep your blood glucose levels in check over the long term of a day. Don't forget to have a snack before bed to control overnight blood sugar! To make sure your family understands your needs, take the time to explain diabetes to them. Discussing your condition with them will give them valuable knowledge they can use to help you in a crisis. It will also make them aware of things they can do to help. You may even find that talking about your diabetes is very cathartic.
