This Is A Big Year For Rivera (Playoffs Or Bust)


Seltzer

Recommended Posts

Of the 3 coaches prior to Rivera, the 2 successful coaches (Capers and Fox) both made the playoffs in their 2nd years.

I am very happy with Rivera thus far, but I expect the playoffs this year. Smitty has guaranteed it...

And as a die-hard fan and PSL owner, it has been long enough. 3 long years w/o the playoffs...

I was so pumped in 2008- only to be subjected to one of the most humiliating playoff losses of all time.

I took it in stride due to the great success of 2003 and 2005, but the time has come to start reclimbing the mountain.

We have the OROY in Newton and a lot of offensive playmakers. Rivera's calling card has been defense.

He has a full draft and off-season to put his stamp on the defense. No more excuses- the playoffs are expected!!

I mean.... I disagree. If we don't make the playoffs, I wouldn't say bust. I sure hope that we do, and believe that we have a chance. But if Rivera doesn't make the playoffs a year after possessing the worst team in the league, and then a year after having the #9 in a tough division, I wouldn't say it was a bust or failure of a season.

I would be happy with a winning season. If that is god enough for a playoff spot, then great. If we go 10-6 like Tampa did 2 years ago and still not make the playoffs, I can't say we will be a bust. I would just hope that we are still in the race the last game of the season instead of out of it by the bye week,

Any improvement, even a 7-9 season, and RR won't be a bust. Given, I think we'll do a lot better than that, hopefully double digit wins and playoffs, but I think as long as we're heading in the right direction Rivera will be our coach for a long while.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
