I Have Less Faith In Rivera After Today

Jeff Davidson had his strident supporters too... :)

Not me.

Oh, hey, looks like Pete Carroll can give up a last second FG to Matty Melt too.

Coaches don't play the game. . .

Ok, so what's the point of having coaches then?

Schematic advantages. Belichick's spread offense, particularly the bunch formations and barely legal pick routes. Dick LeBeau's zone blitzes. McCarthy's hybrid West Coast offense.

Harbaugh's specialty is single read routes out of multiple formations, which seems more complex than it is. But if you have the defensive players that can stick with their assignments the play is absolutely dead on arrival, because the progression is very limited. If the play is designed to isolate Vernon Davis and he doesn't get open, the play is dead. This is probably the biggest reason Harbaugh went with Kaepernick, to at least add the possibility he can escape the pass rush if the play is otherwise null. Our offense is rocket science in comparison.

I have zero problems with Rivera staying. He's a great coach that is learning how to be a head coach. He's shown improvement, and he's constantly trying to better the team and coaching staff.

Ok, but back to us. Chud went retard mode and Rivera didn't stop it

You also forgot to mention the players that are PICKED to play. Like Naka over Martin

You realize of course, that arguing about this makes much sense is trying to convince a member of the Westborough Baptist Church that gay marriage is just fine. :P

It took too long but Rivera did stop it, and we wanted Naka to be better than Martin. He wasn't, it bit us, and eventually he got shut down too. It's not like Martin is a decent player either.

Maybe so, but I can't stand the bullshit directed at Rivera making out like he shouldn't even be in the NFL while coaches like Harbaugh are deified. There are some topics fans are ludicrously ignorant about and coaching is one of them.

[CPF4LIFE]

Rivera still has some things he needs to fix, there is NO WAY Nakamura should be a starter next year. If he is Rivera is just asking to be fired.

Maybe you don't mean it to come across this way, but it sounds like your definition of ignorant is anyone who doesn't agree with you. :-)

don't argue with a "prophet".

No, ignorance is defined by people making statements they don't actually know anything about. If someone says Rivera needs to be fired I won't argue with their opinion; but if someone says Rivera is dogshit and the reason we lost so many games and that Harbaugh is vastly superior I'm going to call them out on it.

i think you think you're smarter than you actually are. arrogance is running rampant.
