One thing about Rivera: he got a lot of criticism about starting Wentz last week but he absolutely had no choice. Henicke had proved he wasn’t up to the task, and Rivera absolutely had to give Wentz a shot. Henicke would probably have given the Commanders a better shot of winning the game but Henicke isn’t a playoff quarterback. They had to find out if Wentz could do it for them. Howell starts tomorrow, another Henicke at best is my current take.

Henicke had heart but he’s just not accurate enough. I blame him for three losses, bad passes cost them dearly.
Does anyone think Wentz is a good QB?

sin θ ≈ θ at about 0.2441 radians (13.99°)?
Doesn’t tell the whole story. lim sin(x)/x = 1 as x goes to zero tells you more. My algebra professor at Maryland, Jonathan Rosenberg, bit my head off when I once used an approximation after finding the exact answer. “In the privacy of your office I guess it’s okay but this is not something you show other mathematicians.”

Texans officially fire Lovie Smith. They want the inside track on this year’s uninspiring hire.

The Texans must be giving him some goodbye money, and Illinois is probably kicking in some still. One of the few jobs on Earth where one can become wealthy by continuously being fired.

I knew a guy that was fired from a huge company with a great severance package where he was the senior vp. Three months later he was fired by a second company, and the same deal. Why, I guess they just to make the mistake go away quietly. Oddly enough, a third one wanted to hire him in six months so they gave a no show paid consultant position to keep him locked up. Guy spent six months hanging around his house by-the pool getting paid three incomes. Don’t ask me what happened next, I moved away during that period and never saw him again.

See this story on how the NFL has paid out $800 million to fired coaches and execs over the past 5 years. That’s a whole new level of ineptitude.
