regardless of the outcome of this game, Rivera needs to be fired tomorrow.

Talk all week was how we control our own destiny, win and you're in.

We come out and give up TWO BLOCKED PUNTS IN THE FIRST HALF, BOTH RETURNED FOR TD. I have never witnessed such failure in my history as a football fan, from peewee football on up.

The status quo and mediocre efforts are not acceptable, and someone needs to make that clear tomorrow.

Like I said in the gameday thread, the entire FO should be evaluated for overseeing this debacle. Gettleman included.

 

we've see everything we need to see from rivera and his group of inepts.

 

i want to see what gettleman can come up with when given the chance to pick his own coaching staff from top to bottom.

 

but he needs to own that clusterf*ck he is responsible for on the OL.

won't get an argument from me.

at least one person should be fired tomorrow....rodgers.

then shula the week after that if they don't win.

then mcdermott.

then rivera at the end of the season.

No doubt Rodgers should be, but Rivera needs to be. Enough is enough. It's his responsibility to oversee his staff and ensure that they, as well as the players, are prepared to win each and every game. Too often, and today is the most obvious example, he doesn't have us prepared.

But the problem is that if Rivera and Co. weren't his guys, then why are we sitting at this point now?

who do we put in his place?

 

 

not that it matters.

 

totally agree on it being on rivera's shoulders for us not being prepared.

he gave rivera & co a chance and it paid off last season. we just didn't realize how much of a fluke that season was going to be. couldn't fire rivera after last season. there was no reason because it seemed like rivera turned the corner when really it was just a blind squirrel finding a nut.

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
