Awesome video.

But supremely depressing.

That goddamn holding call.

Coach Rivera will talk about Cam to anyone who will listen. I'm willing to bet he's driving his wife crazy. Lol

i DVRed this last night. thanks for allowing me to watch at work.

All things considered, Rivera's got to be ecstatic with how things have turned out for him. Passed over for years as a head coach, he finally gets a chance, and lands a potential superstar QB as his first draft pick. Talk about winning the lottery.

really great segment put together but watching ponder walking off our field smiling made me sick

i cant wait to see us on more premier NFL films.

That was nice except for the loss. Having not seen the final drive, I didn't realize Cam got down to the 1 yard line.

I'm glad Rivera doesn't blow up on his players during the game and probably not too many times off the field. I think he saw what happen in Chicago with Ditka. Watching the NFLN Football life shows that his act of blowing up on players for not doing it his way got old after the Super Bowl and the players started to hate him.

Greg Olson did an interview a few days ago and said that Rivera had a great reputation with his former players in Chicago, and that he really enjoyed playing for him now. Ron comes across as being a straightforward and honest coach, who doesn't play head games with his players.

He asks for their best effort and lets them know when they don't live up to it, but doesn't put them down when their best effort lets him down. All you can ask for is execution and effort, can't manufacture talent out of thin air, and I think some coaches buy into their own motivational hype and believe they can make subpar players play like Pro Bowlers every game.

Players got tired of Ditka's narcissism, Rex Ryan reminds me of Ditka soon the players will get tired of him as well.

Yep first and goal should have been our situation. We would have won that game but the officials made certain that we didn't. I sense conspiracy by the league. There I said it! :prrr:

Cam Newton is the best thing that has ever happened to this organization. I can't imagine us not winning a super bowl under his leadership at some point in his career. It took Rivera 3 years to get San Diego to the #1 Defense in the NFL. If he can do anything close to that with our team, then we will be VERY hard to beat. I am so happy to be a Panthers fan.

What a crappy holding call
