Is Ron Rivera an NFL Top 10 Coach?

Less than a year ago, 90% of us wanted him fired immediately.  I was very happy with the changes that Rivera made last season, but I want more than one season of that before I go calling him a top 10 NFL coach.  My biggest concern is if he has a relapse to his ultra-conservative ways now that he has some job security.

Exactly. We need Riverboat Ron.

No.  One winning season and one first round playoff loss does not make someone a top 10 head coach.  Every other coach on the list has had numerous playoff appearances and victories, all of them have taken at least 1 team to the Super Bowl. All but three have won at least one Super Bowl (Reid, Jim Harbaugh, and Fox).

I think the COTY award speaks more to his potential and growth than overall body of work. I don't have an issue with him not being included. He's got more work to do and can still make improvements. Two right off the top of my head: Starting faster in the regular season, and becoming more comfortable and engaged with the offensive side of the game planning

      So... what metrics for production do you believe display these issues/limitations best? Are we only using total passing yards, height, and weight thresholds? If so, then what are those thresholds?

      I mean as far as his size goes it's all over his tape bouncing up and down on his toes in and around the pocket trying to see the field and defenses know this as well as we do but if folks here want to live in never never land and pretend it's not a thing that's their prerogative. Even our head coach has made it a key focal point to get his footwork under control. But it's still something Bryce is going to be tested on early and often no matter how many keystrokes anyone here commits to the narrative it isn't an issue.

      It speaks volumes that when asked to define a clear performance threshold the responses instead fixate on Bryce's size. It reinforces what’s been clear for a while now... that for some, it has never been nor will it ever be about production. Any struggles will always be chalked up to his frame, and any strong play will be downplayed or disqualified via highly mobile goalposts.
