Voth: Rivera is Staying

Because he's wearing a suit?

Adult jobs require adult attire.

It's not just the suit lol (I know, I wear a suit for work everyday myself, shock and awe). That pic just makes it seem like he has "the look" (moreso than Hurney ever did). Was just making an off-hand comment anyway, nothings serious.

But really, even though Rivera is one of our bad coaches, he's not the worse. Chud is. If he's gone, I'll be more optimistic about next season. But as long as he's here, don't expect playoffs next season. From what I read from another thread on here, It seems very likely that even though we will upgrade the oline, that will mean that Chud might try the read option as a base again since he'll think he finally has the line to do it with.

But when has experience EVER made a HC successful? Look at Romeo Crennel, Mangini, Nolan, Singletary, etc. HC unlike players don't get better with experience. The good ones win out the gate, or maximum after their first season.

You're right, but I would be willing to say Rivera did better this year than his rookie HC year.

Just like Fox and Hurney. Oh wait.

Richardson's just buying additional scapegoats so people won't see his failure.

Rivera/Beane may be different from Fox/Hurney. Fox didnt produce with his ass on fire.. maybe because he knew he could easily find a job elsewhere..

I feel like Rivera felt secure with his job at first, believing its a process and he cant rush it. He got woken up with the hurney firing and he knows this is his only shot in a while at head coaching. He felt that fire and he has produced since. just speculation, but id like to see what Rivera could do starting the season on the hot seat.

    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
    • I parked in this lot a few times. It would take over and hour to get out of that lot after games. Never again
