I would honestly rather continue to suck with Ron Rivera than hire Gary Kubiak and continue to suck with him.  At least with Rivera he'd probably just get fired after 2015.  Kubiak would probably stick around for 3 years stinking it up because the thought process will be he needs time to get the team how he wants it.

IMO, there's no way Richardson lets Dave fire Rivera. Shula is definitely gone and I wouldn't be shocked if McDermott is gone with him.

HC/DC- Rivera

OC- ???

Let Rivera take over as DC and keep himself occupied with what he does best. Hire an offensive guru with HC experience to run the offense. No more ball control run game horse shít. Fix the offense and unleash Cam. Become an offensive team. No more defensive team horse shít. Our best player is a QB. Rivera is a great DC and will be able to keep the defense in the top half of the league without needing Pro Bowlers everywhere. With a great OC running the offense with Cam you don't need a top 5 defense. Rivera just has to accept that and go with it. His way doesn't work in today's league.

The defense has been playing much better and McDermott deserves to stay. 

 

Part of Rivera ineptness might be that Shula doesn't instill too much confidence.  Look back at the 3rd Qtr.  How many 3rd and manageable did we have?  Shula calls a WTF play and we punt.   Gano has been money inside of the 50 and Shula definitely doesn't have a clue how to get a first down on a 3rd and 2 or 3.  I wanted them to go for it but honestly I didn't think he would call a good play and we would have had to kick it from that distance.  

 

Bottom line,  Rivera needs an OC who can convert on 3rd and short.  I agree Richardson keeps Rivera but 2015 is it.  But we need an offensive coordinator the moment the season is over.   Period.

      frank, that ball was very catchable where it hit his hands. I don't even think he bent at waist until after he dropped it. He actually slows his pace to position himself to catch the ball. That will never be a pass I'd blame on the QB.   NFL+ _ Live Games on mobile, NFL RedZone, NFL Network and More! - Google Chrome 2026-01-15 13-54-54.mp4

      https://overthecap.com/position/left-guard   Lewis is the 9th highest paid Left Guard in the league. I bet it was higher when the deal was done two years ago.    https://overthecap.com/position/right-guard Hunt #3 highest Right Guard   There is a tab in the upper left portion of the graphic that allows looking at the different positions.

      It was a great play, but a better catch than throw. The TE boxes out Moehrig for position. Jumps to catch the ball. Catches it and turns 180 degrees while he's still in the air. Comes down and toe taps to stay in bounds and lunges for the goal post. That first part where he boxes out Moehrig for the ball is huge. If he doesn't do that and simply fades back to catch the ball (this is why Bryce doesn't trust XL), then Moehrig likely undercuts the pass for a break up or INT. Stafford trusts his receivers to make plays for him. Here I slowed it down so you can see it. Great play but amazing catch and score by the TE.  NFL+ _ Live Games on mobile, NFL RedZone, NFL Network and More! - Google Chrome 2026-01-15 13-45-32.mp4 NFL+ _ Live Games on mobile, NFL RedZone, NFL Network and More! - Google Chrome 2026-01-15 13-44-37.mp4
