too many drops bench him

I know its sarcasm, but I dont understand why they wouldn't keep forcing him the ball when he can make catches like he did between the best two defenders the seahawks had.

He drops the easy ones, but catches the holy poo ones. How about you throw some more holy poo passes at him and let kb do his thing...

One thing I am beginning to realize as a new fan is that Rivera seems risk averse to a fault. He won't even consider doing anything outside of the box unless he's desperate.

I think it's petty and stupid to judge Ron for sitting the rookie out ONE play. It comes off like you are trying to protect your BFF. Kelvin can handle it.

 

I think the problem many of the people speaking out about this have is not the fact that he "benched" Kelvin, but the fact that this sort of thing has been an all too much recurring theme with Rivera as a head coach and how he handles accountability. It's time for him to accept blame.

I have no idea what Kelvin was benched for. Do you?

He is risk adverse when he is not feeling pressure.  Starting to feel pressure now and his alter ego "Riverboat Ron'' will come save the day.

That is a terrible way to coach. But how many years can this happen before he gets a boot?

 

Depends on how successful we are when he turns back into Riverboat

 

If we are deep playoff run /championship game level.. he can do it for a long time.

      Serious question:  Why LG and not RG?  There may be something I do not know, but Hunt's contract is huge and he could be let go after this season (post june 1 cut) and it would save the Panthers a ton of money.  Extending him would be paying a G who is in his mid 30s guaranteed money (and I do not see that as a terrible thing).  So if we release him at age 31, we save $19m.  I like him, but at 31, will he be worth the mega contract?   LG Damien Lewis has actually outperformed Hunt and he is a year younger.  He would also save less vs. the cap and leave less in the dead cap pool.  While his current contract expires after the 2027 season, he is a better prospect (IMO) to extend because only 50% of his current contract was guaranteed.  Here are his contract numbers.   Now, getting to Ickey--he could want LT money if he is offered a second contract.  If we pay him LT money to play either G positions, we are likely overpaying.  Secondly, the injury he suffered could be one that limits his productivity.  Ickey was improving, but he was an average LT.  The only way I re-sign Ickey is to have him accept a G contract and make a lot of it incentive based.     I feel like I am missing something, but in my mind, Ickey was always a guard if you consider the fact that he is an average OT and would be a great G.  Is that still the case (injury)?
