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

      Smitty on TMac

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
