The way Rivera is viewed now is similar to how Fox was viewed on his way out. Offensively challenged, too loyal, conservative former defensive coordinator.

Once in Denver and surrounded by Peyton Manning and some better offensive minds the John Fox in Denver hardly resembles the image he portrayed in Carolina.

Could Carolina upgrade to a cutting edge offensive coordinator and keep Rivera and Cam in place and be successful? I think so.

In my opinion Rivera may have the ability to adapt, but I wouldn't be opposed to going in a different direction.

He adapted for one season, then he went back to who he truly is.  That's not really adapting.

 

That, plus there's been no progress shown toward fixing deficiencies in his coaching skill set.

Even if we had a dynamic OC that had complete control, it wouldn't change the lack of preparation, the lack of conditioning, the lack of urgency and intensity, poor in-game decisions, and overall lackadaisical approach. Ron is a poor man's Norv Turner. Not HC material in the slightest.

      Houston Texans... You Suck!!!

      I mean I think its a bit disingenuous to call basically anyone here a casual fan. I don't think the casual fan creates a profile then logs into it, in the offseason, to comments on mundane offseason topics.. I dont think anyone on here would be considered a casual fan. That said, I get your point. My POV is from the player. They sign this contract, move their family because of these contracts. When Clowney came him, we basically had a coming home party for him.  So yeah, I get why we did it and I know that ultimately the owner doesnt 'save' money, but I can feel for the human side of the player, which is why I want them to get all they can while they can.

      My guess is the NBA will either send Flagg back “home” to the Northeast in Brooklyn or Washington, or San Antonio so that they can keep building around Wemby. If I was a betting man I would take the odds on the Spurs. This definitely feels like a #1 pick that they will rig.

      In fairness, she is ensuring she is talked about.  People really aren’t going out there way to bring her up.  It’s some weird poo.  She would end up getting talked about given her actions if she was 40. Bill realizing some of these high end “companions” got a game of their own.  That’s what I don’t think Bill saw coming.
