We keep blaming McDermott for our bad defense...

Yet it is Rivera who said from day one, he would be the man when it came to defense. He implied this before he ever began his search for coordinators. So it's really Rivera we should blame, because even as bad as McDermott is (he didn't do too much in Philadelphia), Rivera is obviously calling the shots.

You learn in mighty might football that one person doesn't cost a "TEAM" a game. You win as a team and also loose as one. It's not your fault or Cam's. I also agree that we should have went for it on 4th and inches really. But his decision to punt was not a very bad one. They pinned them back with a minute left. Atlanta played hard in that little bit of time. It's hard to go that distance in such little time. Hard loss, but lets suck it up and play just as hard next week. This time we get the W!

    • There is a Grand Canyon-sized chasm between your opinion and the opinions of most former player hockey guys who do this for a living.
    • I can only imagine the **** eating grins on the committee right now. "Oh, Bama didn't deserve it? Oh, Miami didn't deserve it? Suck it, haters!" lol
    • To say that, is gaslighting, because it isn’t true. I mean, maybe one or two people do that but it isn’t the predominant behavior. Even Frank has given him credit. I think particularly the Rams game. A couple of glowing posts.   I know I have. Gotta be honest about it because if you aren’t it undermines what else you say.  But the degree of how far I go with credit, in terms of it being a projection of future performance? Not very far. Acknowledge it, but require more of it. There is a lot of bad play to offset.    I tried to remain passive while the last 9 games (post ankle injury) played out. It is just really hard when the lows won’t go away. I failed. As high as a couple of those highs were, there isn’t enough.    I know it is premature to just say I want to move on, made my decision after 6 of those games ended up pretty much really good or not good enough, but I have had enough of being patient and letting him show the reality either way.  So in my view, he Could still validate himself to a decent degree if he smokes the last three starts. But also in my view I don’t expect to see it. Maybe one more high quality start, would be my expectation. So yes he could still somehow justify having the job next year. If that happened I still wouldn’t have much faith given the last three years and all that has transpired. Again, there is a lot of bad play to offset.
