He feels like the jeff fisher replacement, 98.7 % the same.....

Fisher has become a little underrated.  Was he bad in the 2010s?  Yes without question, the game passed him by.  But he took over an Oilers/Titans franchise that just lost Warren Moon.  He turned them around just like that.  Between 1999-2003 they were AFC heavyweights and finished with 11+ wins 4 times in 5 seasons.  He also has 2 more 10-win seasons on top of that.  Rivera has never had his team as consistently good as those early 2000s Titans were.

This feels like BS, they were 5th in offense with Taylor heinicke, Wentz and a questionable running game. If anything this is on Ron for pulling the trigger on Wentz. 

Uh, no they weren't.  They were 24th in the only offensive stat that matters:  scoring.

Their "questionable" running game was actually the offensive category they ranked highest in, at 12th.

Rivera has 3 winning seasons in 12 years as a HC. Great man but he needs to go back to being a DC 

He also has a career winning record, five playoff appearances (way more important than winning seasons), and no full season record worse than 6-10 (when he was fired here we were 5-7). The last season was the first time Washington hasn't had an outright losing season since 2016.

I get some of y'all have tunnel vision, but a team can do a lot worse than him as HC.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
