You wanted him fired after a 12-4 season?   Damn tough crowd here.  

No, I wanted him gone after 1-4, similar to Rhule.  If Rivera had been fired after the bad start in year three (like Rhule was) sure that year might have ended up worse than the 12-4 it finished but we likely would have won a Super Bowl or two in the next few years.  Definitely would have been better than three winning records in nine years.

How is it odd? Both owners were presented with similar scenarios, bad years one and two, year three starts bad. The current owner handled it correctly, the last owner held onto the guy for another six and a half years, wasting some of the best players the team ever had, by far the best QB and best shot at winning the SB

Canning Rivera then was a STRONG sentiment for a huge contingent of fans.  It was already loud after year 2, even greater after that bad start.  

 

Yea I was one of them.  Rivera took his balls out of his ass for the rest of that year and most of us quietened down, then the next year went back to his loser ways. Then in 15 he changed again, letting Cam control the offense more, then in 16 went back to his loser ways again permanently.

Canning Rivera was a big move.

Not canning Hurney first or at the same time was a stupid move.

He’s already proven to be a better owner than Richardson by getting rid of Rhule in year 3. If Richardson had gotten rid of Rivera in year 3 like many of us were screaming for we might have a SB trophy in the case, with all that talent those teams had. At least Tepper isn’t afraid to make moves, I much prefer that to holding onto Hurney, Rivera, etc way way too long. 

The only thing that doesn't match your statement is the record on the field.

Richardson spanks Tepper like a bald baby in that respect.

Love Mel Brooks movies. People today can’t take a joke and become to triggered. Hence why his movies can never be made again.

History Of The World Part II is coming out. I have a feeling it will probably be watered down compared to his other movies though.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      By panthers55 · Posted

      I see progress and improvements. We aren't the same team we were even at the beginning of this year. You want to harp on the past while I am all about the present and future. Do I know thinks are going to be great moving forward? Actually I don't but I prefer to look at the good instead of the bad. Since he is surely going to be the QB the rest of this year barring injury, I am going to root for him to succeed instead of fail. I always said if we are going to finish at 500 for the year I prefer we win at home since I will be there and want to see wins and crying opposing fans like the cowboys. So far mission accomplished. Now we have to show we can win on the road.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.

      No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
