If you were going to fire Hurney why not give control to Rivera to see if he's got what it takes to be Head Coach/GM. You're not going to get a new GM and start over until next year anyway.

Who knows? What if it works and we pull off 7-8 wins to finish out the year. It wasn't so long ago that people where saying fire Riveria and make Chud the head coach to keep from losing him.

I'm not giving up on Rivera yet as the defense has improved and I don't see him enough of a hand on offense and let's Chud handle that (to a fault as we've seen now). He'll either rain Chud in or replace him.

They've played better. BUT we've had the lead in the fourth qtr in all but one game. And it seems that when we need a defensive stop to seal the W the defense gives it away.

They are usually on the field the entire 4th quarter. Normally when we get the lead, we will do a couple of Read options, A cam sack, punt.

Doesn't change the fact that when they HAVE TO make a stop,they're not capable. We've given up the lead in all those games with around 5 min to go.

What the hell do you expect? We're almost dead last in TOP in the NFL. You can't have players out on the field constantly & expect them to not be tired, haven't you ever played?

No different than our offense having the ball with a few minutes left and needing one FG/TD or even to run out the game....and not delivering either.

We have been in this situation numerous times over the past two seasons....and the offense has failed to deliver even once.

Neither side of the ball have been clutch performers.

they held Dallas to one TD and 4 field goals....what the defense needs is for the offense to avg more than 18 points a game.

This is true. Both sides need to come together. That's why its a team sport. Just don't think the. O should take all the blame.

      2026 Mock Drafts

      By Soul Rebel · Posted

      I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.

      Thoughts on using AI for drafting?

      By rebelrouser · Posted

      Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
