Inconsistency:
Rivera said the hardest thing about this season is seeing inconsistent football. Washington plays Tampa Bay this weekend and is in a much different spot than playing them last time.
— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) November 10, 2021
Rivera on the inconsistencies Washington faced in the first half of the season: some games the running game was good, others the short to intermediate passes were good. But it has struggled to put everything together on a week to week basis.

Fundamentals:
Rivera said one of the areas Washington is struggling with right now is doing the little things well. It’s a lesson that Rivera wants to push on his team: if you’re not really good at the fundamentals, you’re going to struggle.

Taylor Heinicke:
Ron Rivera said one of the biggest things they want Taylor Heinicke to do moving forward is play with his personality. They will see how things go from there
— Rhiannon Walker (@InstantRHIplay) November 10, 2021
Ron Rivera addressing the media. Said he wants Heinicke to keep playing to his personality. That’s an area where Rivera thinks the QB can play his best.

Ryan Fitzpatrick:
Ryan Fitzpatrick had his MRI "the other day" and there was "some progress." The progress isn't significant, though, so he'll be re-evaluated again in the future. Still no timetable on the QB, Ron says
