It says we got over excited at a good victory against the Saints and took a game off after a short week against the Super Bowl Champions.

I'm not concerned. You'll see exactly how much our players "want to" against Atlanta.

I think it is bigger than that.

Again, numerous huddlers have said how lackluster Rivera's camps are and how he rarely rips players for mistakes.

Both Jordan Gross and Rivera laughed in their pressers, like this was just run of the mill, par for the course, completely expected, etc.

Just seems like there isn't a lot of "want to" or passion in general. Just another day at the office.

The thing that was insightful, and I think that explains why Rivera wasn't as pissed off as one would expect him to be, in his presser was how he said how this game was like a little brother getting slapped around by their big brother. I think we might have gone in with the expectation of losing against the Super Bowl champs and as such, didn't feel as bad about getting our asses handed to us afterwards.

Beason and Godfrey were whiffing against the Saints too....

D hasn't played well at all this year. Godfrey made a nice play in a vacuum. Look at what Beason and Godfrey did last week outside their INTs.....they both consistatly are playing weak.

Don't even know what Nakamura is on the field....he makes Godfrey look like a decent option

      Not sure how much he was a long term piece of this team.   Sucks to not have him as part of the rotation.   Looks like it's Lee Hunter time.

      I am not sure he will put the over the games but we’ll probably have them.   Two things I am thinking.  We have 4 preseason games.  All the coaches have enough service time to know the standards that are in place for decades. If I recall it was play your starters just a series to start woth and build it up until week theee where play a lot and you have week four to set hour roster. Evaluate before cuts.   Bevell will certainly have the whole thing down pat.   I’d they don’t do the fries and frie air will worry too. Because it is set up to do that.     I have said since they went t three preseason people have to figure a new way are still feeling it out and trying things.  We don’t have to this year.
