RIvera "We shot ourselves in the foot"

So basically the team is trying to imitate Talib...

We dont want to score too quick, it tires out our defense bullshit

Losing and winning your only SB can break your coaching career with that team, I've seen it too often. Its on Ron to adjust and adapt in order to win. Its on JR to make sure we don't have a John Fox part 2. Don't waste Cam Newton prime

So far he's proving to be john fox 2.0.. the similarities are uncanny.

Rivera isn't very smart honestly...players coach so no discipline or accountability.

Fake ass "loyalty" to people who don't deserve it and no loyalty for people who do.

Zimmer had the less talented squad and out coached him. Rivera is only a very slight upgrade over John Fox the difference is Gettleman can actually draft in more than just the first round.

With Fox the SB was close as well but yea our coaching history isn't all that.

I mean, KB had one penalty that took a TD off the board and another one that wiped out a big, momentum building play.  Ron is right.

Shula went Shula. Nothing to see there. .... Lack of adjustment to their pressure was baffling. They had 34 total yards in the 1st half and it was still a 10-8 game. Second half, Bradford turned into Joe Montana. That's adjustment. I don't even get mad at Shula no more. We know what we have with him. I've accepted that situation

I'm honestly more disappointed in our second half D. I knew their defense was gonna give us a hard time, but I expected our D to force some turnovers in a defensive battle like this

The KB penalty killed us tho. If we were up by 2 possessions, they wouldn't have come back

Also, multiple flags like that usually point to lack of focus and discipline, which rests on the coaching staff

This reminds me of the scene in saving Private Ryan where they let that soldier go, then he came back to attack them. We could have ended this in the 1st quarter. We kept letting them hang around. Any given Sunday anyone can beat anyone. When you have a team down, you gotta finish them

That KB penalty was killer. He wasn't even affecting the play. My biggest frustration through the first 3 games is how sloppy we have been playing. Even against the 49'ers we just played sloppy, we were just so much more talented than them that it didn't matter.

Agree. 

We go 15-1 regular season last year. As a player, coach, organization or fan, we get a bit spoiled and expect that. It's a helluva long season. I'm glad we are taking our medicine early on. You don't want to be playing your best ball this early. The mistakes are correctable. We will be fine.

penalties on offense, ST blunders, piss poor time management, etc.  it's something they do to themselves every game.  this team is playing like it is still in pre-season mode.  especially on the offensive side of the football.  they need to get their head out of their collective ass...and soon!
