Panthers Highlight Reel - moRon Rivera's Dumbest Decisions

Since this season is in essence down the toilet, why not compile a highlight reel of Rivera's Panthers tenure?

 

 

Number one in my book: 2011 Saints game. Calling a timeout with the clock running at 6 seconds left in the first half, allowing the Saints to set up and kick a field goal - basically giftwrapping 3 points for Sean Payton. Did it because "he thought the field goal blocking team might be penalized."

 

 

What are yours?

against the bears in 2012

-kicked a field goal to go up a point, celebrates like medlock just nailed the game winner in the super bowl

-slant, slant, slant, slant, slant, slant, field goal

game over, bears win

I remember that. I had that burrowed deep in my mind.

coming away from 2 goal line possessions with 3 points against the 49ers in the playoffs

 

continuing to run right into the teeth of their defense when they were full bore selling out to stop it.  play action bootleg to the right and newton could have stopped, dropped, and rolled into the endzone with room to spare.

2012 at Atlanta.

There is no close second.

Calls a qb run on third that actually picks up the first down but Cam fumbled backwards and recovered it so no forward progress. On 4th and 1 Nortman gets a beautiful punt down at the 1.

And then we realized just because you once backed up a hall of fame safety that doesn't mean you are one.

oh yeah, there's this one too

 

rivera takes the ball out newton's hands on a down and distance where he can just take the snap and fall forward to win the game.  then he punts it to ryan and decideds to blitz our best DB (gamble) with the falcons backed up on their own goal line and needing to force the ball downfield.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Icege · Posted

      WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.

      Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.

      In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
