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.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By fieryprophet · Posted

      I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.
