I have not in the past been quick to fire anyone but in this case I will have to agree he needs to go. He got an extension and nice contract. I realize Ron is not responsible for the cap situation and the lack of needed quality players but having players not ready to play and playing not to loose when it's so apparent that's the reason we loose so many games is all on him. It seems he is like so many of the players that get big contracts in that he has no passion now that his pocket book is full and will remain full for a few years no matter what.

He's got to go. There's no excuse for the lack of urgency and preparation this team has shown this season. I'm tired of the injury excuse or the lack of talent excuse. This team is getting it's collective asses kicked every game and it's not because of a lack of talent.

this is like asking if I want a million dollars. btw, be careful what u wish for. rivera might seem bad, but uncertainty is worse.  Next coach could stink it up or at the very min were looking at atleast 2 years worth of rebuilding with a new staff.  These are riveras players. a new staff will want their own.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      I've shown you numerous comps for other tackles in the same age and talent range.  His contract, taking into account his age, health, etc.  is the going rate.  It's a fair deal. I've shown you examples of how long it usually takes to find even an average replacement.  Hell, look at every tackle that has ever started for the Panthers.  How many would you consider a success?  They are not easy to find. After everything we've done with this team since drafting Bryce why would we decide to let our best linemen go and add a huge question mark at tackle?   FA is a crapshoot in which any guy available will have cons/issues.  If not, they'll cost a fortune.   Outside of a first or maybe 2nd round pic next year it'll take a few years for a tackle to learn the position at the NFL level.  There are still questions about Icky. Every vet NFL player deals with maintenance.  Between the contract value and history I'm not overly worried about his knee.  I contend his knee issue isn't anything to be overly worried about.  It's not zero risk but it's an acceptable risk.  Every player we draft and every contract we sign has risk.  You're blowing up his own negative words about his knees and ignoring him saying he is healthy and the knee is a non issue.  You have a strong chicken little complex with this team.  Being he has always been a Panther they are very aware of any health issues. We paid now because now is cheaper.  If his knee was really an issue they would have waited.  That tells me it's not the issue you want it to be.
