I wasn’t too happy with several aspects of the Cardinals game by Rivera.
1. We ended the game with 3 timeouts. Rivera said he did it to reduce injuries, essentially in a game we were outplayed and lost. If Dallas had done the same thing, they wouldn’t have WON their game with an on-side kick and a FG! Fight until the end and make the Cardinals earn their victory.
Smacked of Gruden and Rivera is thinking too much long-term and not building a reputation as a wild eyed pirate who will fight to the last minute.

2. Same with kicking a FG when we were behind 20-0. He said he wanted to give the team 3 points in case that was our only score. Go for it on fourth down and get 7 points! BE RIVERBOAT RIVERA!

3. Why aren’t they trying out FA this week? Are we happy with how Aptke or Christian or the TE are playing? Are they going to keep them all season if they continue to suck?

I really like Rivera and his character and his being the high honor type person after 2 decades of Snyder’s sludge. But I think he has already written off this season as a practice and player tryout. There are too many holes to fix in one years draft. Why aren’t they bringing in Roberts or some other top WR FA to see if we can get a legitimate #2 WR NOW?

Bring in some one-year OL guys to see if we can get a replacement for Christian or Martin? Those guys, unless they get a helluva lot better NOW, won’t be on this team next year. See what FA are out there and get a diamond-in-the-rough NOW!
