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


top dawg

Recommended Posts

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.

    • TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive. 
    • I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.
    • Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
