First thing mentioned was deflecting to players. 

So far today:

(1) The soft defense is because of the players trying "a little too much to keep it in front of us instead of being aggressive like we had been for three quarters", and

(2) The slow play calling isn't because of Shula hitting the wrong button on the XBox controller, its because of those damn players standing around munching on popcorn and watching replays.

"Player's coach"

conservative play calling with a lead coupled with dont give up the big one on D is his mantra...hard to change his gut feeling...keep saying he hasnt learned a damn thing.

So.... Let me get this straight. we have a team that is 4-1 coming off back to back wins against top 10 teams in the league in THEIR own house none the less and the huddle is full of our coaches are bad and the world is ending threads that would give the taints board a run for their money....

 

Hey Jerry our 2 time coach of the year is straight trash because the huddle says so and if you need a new coach or heck even just an advisor LOOK NO FURTHER the huddle has ya covered!

All you guys can harp about the record, and don't get me wrong, I certainly want them to win, but you do realize that in both these last two games we were ONE play away from losing.   One play. 

After leading in both significantly...

The only thing that pulled out wins was the talent of our players.  

Recognize it or not, this coaching staff plays not to lose...  and it sucks.

Yet still does...

And please don't throw "coach of the year" in there as if it means something.

Bruce Arians is a two time coach of the year too. Heck, we had a guy here who was executive of the year also. The owner of the 19th century fired him.

Wait. What. Are you talking about the same Bruce Arians that the entire huddle usually drools over when they play a prime time game? 

 

Right.. good point. 

 

Mr.Scot you used to be the saca of the huddle.... wtf happened

This x1000. The talent difference between us and both of those teams skews HEAVILY in our favor. Top to bottom we have way better players than either team. If we had a coach equal to belichick we’d have blown them out 50-10.

I only know a few people who drool over Bruce Arians, and they're not people I'd agree with.

Arians is a great OC, but in over his head as a head coach. Flip that to DC and you have Rivera.

As to my feelings, an owner firing a successful GM and bringing back a lousy one will do that to you.

...to go to the next level...this mantra has to change...seems like a disconnect with whats happening in the game....we have to get something special besides stew up the middle in these situations.

"sarcasm"--Rivera is not that bad in comparison.
