At the end of the game, Hixon was sitting on the bench by himself, and I was looking for his presence on the field the whole game.  I wanted to see Hixon since he does have playoff and superbowl experience.  He would have been our secret weapon and Shula a la Ron dropped the ball again.  Plus McNutt would have been the secret sauce.  I was not a believer before this game in our weapons and the reason is because of Shula.  He came out in the first quarter blazing saddles then he cooled the spurs.

 

D.G. has his work cut out for him this offseason plus the decision to keep Riverboat.  Ron I like his gamble but everyone knew it was a qb sneak.  I wish Hixon would have been on the field more than Lafell.  Imo Smith, Hixon and Ginn would have been the difference in us winning the game and keeping the chains moving  to losing.  Did Hixon get any runs?

The decision to keep RIvera is going to be on Jerry Richardson  no matter what the hell DG has to say.

I still say if Rivera doesn't put in D.G.'s guy in a playoff game and the last minutes of the game you see Hixon sitting on the sidelines by himself looking like "aint this bout a bitch".  Then I am sure D.G. isn't going to be happy because Riverboat didn't use all of the tool that were forced in his toolbox.  I am pretty sure any other hc in the league would have used the one guy on offense that was brought in by a gm as a trusted piece, but not rr.  His ice up son was melted down son.

It's not a matter of Hixon having enough experience or not. The players on the field were those that Cam had the most chemistry with and reps with during the season. Everything needs to be fluid and timing has to be perfect. Perhaps in future season Hixon may work into the mix a bit more, but while

LaFell, Smitty, and Olsen are still here, Hixon will be a backup #2WR until he wins out the starting position in training camp.

Ok that's fair to say but he is the hc so that is his job.  We need someone else that can take the team to the next level by at least trying to use all of the pieces given to him.

Lmao... The guy has been here 3 years. The only thing Rivera is known for is pulling his head out of his ass and taking some risks here and there to give the team a chance to win some games.

      I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.

      This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.

      to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
