Running the same play down the field

Exactly. How many plays did we give them the same open field? They just walked down the field, and we let them, same poo different day. Just like the Atlanta game--you knew were going to lose because we play that BS defense that we saw today in these situations---just back up and let the opponent march in 10 yard increments down the field and kick a field goal as time runs out.

Not even that bothered by the loss, I've watched the exact same game it seems like every Sunday this year. By the way---someone should tell Superman that he either starts winning games or tahe can take his droopy towel covered head, his ego and excuses elsewhere.

It's gets old watching this team. Haven't actually been to a game this year, and I know a lot of people that are either giving their tickets to people or trying to sell them---who wants to spend all that cash to watch this garbage.

Agreed. Rivera put the final nail in the coffin for me. I had hoped to find an excuse to keep him around because I feel he's a good identifier and developer of talent, but week after week he falls apart in crunch time, without fail.

It's be a mistake to keep him and would cost this franchise.

    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
    • Well, we got our answer on Army today.
    • Not a chance the SEC could compete with the NFL.  In the large cities that are not in the Southeast, (LA, NYC, Chicago, SF) College football is an afterthought.
