Rivera Needs To Show More Muscle

Recommended Posts

You have some coaches that want it done their way or the high way. Every thing is done the way they planned it. Some coaches let other coaches be flexible

5 games in, time to show a little more muscle and control more. I think thats one reason why he just stands there. He let every one else just do their job and not overrule people. To me thats the change once we play Dallas. If something doesn't seem like the right call, overrule that poo

On defense, maybe but how well does Ron really know offense? Then again anyone could call what Chud is. I think Chud will tighten it up though I just hope by then our players haven't given up. I could be wrong though, hard to find any reasons to blame for being 1-4 anymore.

I'd like to see it but I'm not sure it will be against Dallas. I think they will use the bye as their chance to try and get the most out of their current style for better or worse. But overall I just think it's not in his personality to seize control like that or manage in crucial situations. I was watching Saving Private Ryan recently and rivera reminds me of Tom Hanks character when they are storming the beach and an explosion goes off near him and his ears are ringing. Next to him a soldier is yelling "What do we do now?!" and he can't answer until the ringing stops. Ringing never stops for Ron and without that leadership the team doesn't recover when things get bad..

It's been said over and over (probably to the point that noone really wants to hear it again really) that teams will take on the attitude of their coach. I believe that pretty firmly myself.

I also believe that one of the fundamental problems with this team is they're playing like they're in a fog for the most part. The Defense isn't hitting guys like the mean it - the Offense isn't running the (admittedly whack-a-doo) plays that are being called in.

Maybe it's time just to give them something to latch on to. If we're playing with some fire, even with the other coaching / playcalling / talent / management issues we have, we have probably won another game at least just due to that.

    • When we have everyone playing like they should, we can win the Cup. That has been the biggest problem when we get to the playoffs, but this year seems to be fixed mostly. We could have had multiple if we had done this in the past.
    • Here we go Bryce Stan’s you should love this. Hell it may be one of you.  It has every cliche excuse and then some.  Unintentionally hilarious my limit was reached when he said Bryce had it hard because four play callers. 
    • Luke goes in to the specifics of what he looked to accomplish in joint practices.  Basically they may work with someone on the opposing team to stress something they feel is a weakness in their own game in a different way that can be done with someone they are familiar with. That they can have predetermined stresses but since neither wants to get injured and it has absolutely no bearing on anything there is not the level of concern that would be in a preseason game.  He would also even chat with opposing OC.   It seems like an interesting nuance among the vets and savy pros.
