Panthers Highlight Reel - moRon Rivera's Dumbest Decisions

[TNPanther]

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?

kicking a FG up by 3 at buffalo on 4th and 1 at buffalo's 20 with a minute left. a first down would have ended the game yet he kicks a field goal and gives the bills the ball with a chance to win

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.
