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.

      That throw was incredibly special.  But there isn't anyone alive who has ever played QB who thinks that was a smart or practical throw.  Go watch anyone's commentary on it, specifically Steve Young's. You are swapping complete teams' situations, not just the QBs.  What I was saying is if Caleb was here this year with all things the same, and Bryce was in Chicago this year with all things the same, the results of their season would be the same.  But if you think Dave Canales is as good of a coach and play caller as Ben Johnson, PM your Zelle info and I'd like 10 cases of whatever you are drinking.

      He wouldn't be the same player he was now. He took a year off learning under Kyle Shannahan (who makes literally every QB that plays for him look good besides Trey Lance). Then he got to play with two stacked offenses and great coaching staffs In a weird way I think we would've kept Frank Reich for another year if we kept Darnold, DJ Moore, and our draft picks. Hell maybe Reich isn't even hired in that situation and we kept Wilks or hired a different head coach.  I think keeping Darnold and DJ (and possibly CMC and Burns) would have helped stablize the franchise. But not sure if Darnold would have put us over the edge without the coaches and teams he got to play with after he left Carolina. IMO he would have been more like a bridge QB. Unless we got the right HC to bring these traits out of him.
