That's not how I feel at all... he's the reason we aren't 2-1.

 

He is still a terrible coach with the track record to back it up.

 

Maybe this game can be a turning point for him but until consistently proven otherwise...he's still garbage.

 

cmon man...didn't you ever see the movie???  DUMB AND DUMBER

He's in his third year and we're still wondering if he's any good. I've never seen any head coach given so much leeway.

 

 

 

Really? It took Bill Cowher 10 years to win the Superbowl.

 

 

I have no problem with giving time to a coach to learn how to win, but that is not how the world works anymore.

Cowher had 6 winning seasons and made the playoffs 6 straight times in his first 6 seasons....

 

How you think that is a legit comparison is beyond belief.

I think he's gone after the season, but he still makes a good scheme.  If we go up two touchdowns on a team with him as a coach we usually win.

 

Basically, we're stuck with him, so I will hope he does well.  And for all the Rivera supporters who have been avoiding posting the last two weeks, it IS, in fact, possible to hope he does well and at the same time still think he's a lousy coach.  Same with Shula.

 

Bottom line, I think they both suck at their jobs, but I'm sure happy they hit on everything right Sunday.  Made it a fun game to watch. :)

So what...

 

Just pointing out that he was given 10 years, Lovie Smith was fired after a playoff apperance. Like I said, everybody has to win now or he is a bum and needs to be fired. Maybe if we could be more patient we might actually have a winning team, but with every loss the coach needs to be fired.

 

This isn't Madden and in reality sometimes things take time to get right.

 

Is Rivera right for this team? Only time will tell and the world doesn't have time anymore.

I don't think the barometer for us is a Superbowl within three years, however people at least want to see competency in close games, and Ron hasn't given us one iota of it in that case

Maybe he was given 10 years because his first 6 years were winning/playoff seasons...LOL...it's not that hard to understand.

 

Rivera is to this point on his way to 3 straight losing seasons....again compare apples to apples...you are way off at this point.

 

 

 

HINT: you'd need to find a coach who had 3 losing seasons then won a superbowl with the same team

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      If we divide the league up into quarters you need to be able to make 8 worse starting QBs for him not to be bottom tier. Who are they?

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      It just doesn't add up to what we're watching. It feels like you're trying to convince yourself that Bryce can just make a few adjustments and pan out. You say he turns the ball over because he's over aggressive and I just don't see that. A lot of his turnovers are just bad throws oftentimes because the balls sails in him. The fumble issues? I mean, you have the smallest QB in the NFL getting hit by extremely large powerful kej who knows based on film study that this guy is prone to coughing up the ball. If you're being hit by a much larger, much more powerful man intent on removing the ball from your possession you're gonna lose that battle a decent amount of the time. I think some of it is due to bad footwork but some of it is also that when there's traffic in front of him he has to try to get the ball up and over that pressure due to his lack of height. His release point it just several inches lower than most NFL QBs, no way around it. You saying it's more difficult than simply looking at outcomes while completely leaning on situational stats to try to convince people their eyes are lying to them and Bryce's arm isn't a significantly limiting factor in his game. Some people are hyperbolic about his lack of arm strength but honestly he has one of the weakest arms in the league. That's just reality if you objectively watch him play versus other NFL QBs. If he had time in a clean pocket and can step up into and through his throw he can make most throws but that's the problem, for him to make the tougher throws everything has to go perfect. If there's pressure pushing him off his spot or pressure in front of him where he can't step up or has to try to loft the pass over the scrum it's probably ending in a poor result. The problem is that's a commonplace scenario in the NFL. It wasn't at Alabama. Trust your own QB analytical system. Bryce being very the bottom of the league matches up perfectly with the eye test of just watching him olay

      If he wanted to be as irrelevant as possible in his final year he's achieving it.
