Re: Ron Rivera
OK -- I just saw the video of that. I am officially over RR. I say this reluctantly, but after all the fanfare with Wentz and saying he was wanted, and even though Wentz threw a horrible pick yesterday, he also threw for 359 yards and 2 tds. He was less the reason for the loss than coaching.
If the Bears beat us on Thursday and RR has a job on Friday, I may have to move on from this cursed franchise. I mean, what the actual fuck is the point if we continue to soil ourselves week after week? I'd be very sad to do so -- been a fan since 1974. And I like a bunch of the current players -- McLaurin, Allen, Way, and like what I see so far from Dotson -- but it hasn't been fun to be a fan of this team for years. But for the group in this forum, I think I would have bailed years ago.

Re: Ron Rivera
Ron is getting killed by ESPN and rightfully so. He will be fired after this season. These players will quit on him. That’s the 2nd time he’s called out a player by name in 3 weeks. Dude is cooked and he knows it

Re: Ron Rivera
Ron is going to turn on Turner after the colts game.
Snyder will pick his new OC Snyder isn’t going to pay this staff $20m by firing them. We have two more years of Riverboat Retard. |

Re: Ron Rivera
I think Ron wants to get fired. He's got 5 years. Two more years of Dan's paychecks after this season ends. That's like 14 million. Do you know how happy Ron will be if he gets fired? He has a home near Pebble Beach. That part of the country is beautiful.

He’s from Seaside next door to Monterey.

We can all stop now with the bullshit of what a great guy he is and how he has this super high integrity and great character. He is trash. He is showing you what kind of person he is right now. No respectable coach in the NFL at any position, would place the sole blame on one player like that. He is total garbage.

Re: Ron Rivera
Rivera has split personalities or something. Like somehow he is unaware that he is the HC and in charge of personel. So no matter how you spin it, it falls on him.

Re: Ron Rivera
Agreed, but he is the backup, not Howell.

Re: Ron Rivera
How long till Riverboat Retard trades 2 first round picks for McCaffrey?

They absolutely have to play Howell. We are going to have a top 5 pick, and probably a top 3. The top pick is in play. We need to know what we have in Howell. We are going to wind up not knowing if we need to draft a quarterback with our first rounder and it makes no sense. Fire Ron immediately- he is a confused old man yelling at the clouds. |

Howell might have "it" but you aren't gonna find out if a rookie 5th round qb has "it" 5 games into his rookie season. That's a guy that is going to take multiple seasons to learn and develop. And we're wasting his rookie year on a lame duck head coach - best case scenario next year he has to learn another new system.

But….we might see enough in Howell over 12 games to know we do not need to spend a top 3 pick on a quarterback. It isn’t like we couldn’t use that pick on thevo line or secondary. I just don’t see the point of letting Howell sit? What is he going to do lose? Guess what we do that with or without him. This season isn’t hanging in the balance. It is gone, done, finished as far as the post season is concerned. Are we going to ruin his psyche? I mean if the plan is draft a quarterback high next year and make Howell a backup then we are sitting our future backup to protect him? That is a luxury most teams don’t worry about even if they can afford to. We can’t afford to. Nor should we worry about it. Best case scenario is play Howell, like what we see, and spend our top pick on protection or a shutdown corner. To know we have the guy, which is possible over 12 games, and spend those picks to solidify our team is the quickest way to fixing this. If we aren’t sure after 12 games then so be it - we take a top qb and see what happens. I do not think itbis crazy to say Howell can be better then TH or CW. I would honestly take serviceable and other pieces around him then what the hell we have now. Let him develop on the field while we build around him like so many other teams do. It would be a breath of fresh air win or lose to see a young quarterback develope with a plan in place to build around him. Keep TH as the backup. But protecting a guy you consider to be a backup is not an option. Playing a rookie isn’t mishandling him HTTR, trading a young one away instead of paying him or playing him on a broken leg - that is mishandling him. Pats did it, bears did it, steelers are doing it. Lots of other more successful teams do it and have done it - unless Brady, or Rodgers, or Montana are at the helm. We don’t have that problem. Lol |
