Didn't he just get an extension though?

(the Bidwills aren't exactly the sharpest knives in the drawer either)

Bidwells are not good owners and their GM is an ex NC State meathead for it would not surprise me if he did get a totally undeserved extension.

same poo we had with Rivera

 

zero accountability, blame the players, missed opportunities, blah blah 

Yeah, but at least in some of those games you could legit see where the players were screwing the pooch and missing opportunities. I seen in another thread where someone said both sides of the ball looked like 1 guys that had just met each other right before the game.

10-24

how the hell did he win 10 

This post got me thinking....

Win #1 2020 - against the Chargers. Justin Herbert's second career start. If Austin Ekeler doesn't drop a lateral with a clear path to the endzone on the last play, we'd only be talking about 9 career wins. Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn fired at the end of the season.

Win #2 2020 -  against the Cardinals. Kliff Kingsbury seems to be the one coach that Rhule owns, maybe it's because he's another college coach that sucks. Kliff may not make it through the season after the way they came out in week 1.

Win #3 2020 - against the Falcons in what ended up being Dan Quinn and Thomas Dmitroff's final game after starting the season 0-5. It should be noted that we lost to them 3 weeks later at home with Raheem Morris as the interim coach.

Win #4 2020 - against the Lions. This was a team that was actively quitting on Matt Patricia who was fired 5 days later.

Win #5 2020 - the infamous game against WFT and what ended up being Dwayne Haskins last start.

Win #6 2021 - against the Jets in Zach Wilson and Robert Saleh's first game

Win #7 2021 - against the Saints. It was already mentioned in the thread but the Saints were missing 8 assistant coaches due to COVID.

Win #8 2021 - against the Texans in Davis Mills' first start and David Culley who was fired at the end of the season

Win #9 2021 - against the Falcons. Calvin Ridley was ruled out just before kickoff to take time off with mental health issues. Three weeks later, the Falcons get their revenge in BOA. 

Win #10 2021 - against the Cardinals with Colt McCoy at QB. Kliff Kingsbury again. 

So there you go - 5 of the 10 wins against head coaches who aren't head coaches in the NFL anymore. 2 more against rookie QBs making their first start, one against a QB making his last start, one against a backup QB, and one against a team whose primary weapon was declared out just a few hours before kickoff. That's how you get to 10 wins.

So any coach we win against, bet on them being fired by the end of the season?

rivera never did this either..at least not until near the end but you know it was forced. and rivera was pretty much fox 2.0

Rivera's post-game comments drove me nuts. He never took responsibility for anything.
