Ron Rivera on the hot seat? **SMH/LOL**

OK, I am not going to presume (LOL) that any coach couldn't just have a monumental collapse and end up out the door, but, no, I don't think so; Rivera's seat is right comfortable.  

 

 

At the start of last season, “Riverboat Ron” was sitting squarely on the hot seat, as nearly everyone in Carolina wanted him axed. Then, his team pulled off a miraculous turnaround, wound up 12-4 and atop the NFC South, and all seemed right. But a home playoff loss tarnished the season a bit, giving the naysayers something to chirp about once again. If 2013 proves to be an aberration, change could be in the cards for the Panthers.

And, Riverboat Ron is not the only ludicrous candidate on the list.

 

 

As an aside, I see comments all the time from people who don't really know poo about the Panthers (and Cam newton), but you'd think that some sites' (e.g., Cover 32) editors would just say "No!" sometimes.  That's the real point that I even brought this up. 

 

Have at it, you ravenous cats!

There would have to be a serious reversal in the W/L record for Ron's seat to get hot, and if things go wrong and people start asking 'what's wrong with the Panthers?', Rivera likely won't be the first thing that comes to mind.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By mrcompletely11 · Posted

      https://wfnz.com/schedule/the-clubhouse-with-kyle-bailey/ Starts around 1100 I am not sure how connected Al Wallace is but he thinks bryce is going to get paid (50+) and it may happen within the first 4 games of this season.   He thinks the offense looked good last season.  Not really sure what the hell he was watching.

      Waiting to see how the OT situation plays out is probably going to be a big part of the calculus.

      Post-Draft: Gantt sets A stage, not THE stage. Perhaps Reset Your Expectations

      By MHS831 · Posted

      If you draft players who can push the starters in competitions, then you have depth.  Gantt's focus is Week 1, 2026.  That is never my view.  if your focus is on talent alone, and if you do not consider the salary cap, then this is accurate.  If a player making $25m per season can be traded or not renewed because you have a player on a rookie contract who can do the job almost as well--before the maturation and experience occurs, then you may take a small step back for a moment so that you can leap forward later.  About Walker--LTs have done pretty well in Green Bay's system.  He is a good pass protector, and so is Freeling. About DT--they are often rotational.  Hunter will still play and he will improve with experience.  The WR field is not that crowded.  If you have 5 different WRs who can play, they usually do.  Hecht might have the best opportunity to take a starting job, and he is a fifth rounder.   So you look at the cap and the idea is to start as many on rookie contracts as possible.  Does that mean to start rookies day 1.  Nope.
