John Fox in Denver vs. Carolina vs. Ron Rivera

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.

    • Nope Still missing it. Let's try this a different way... You have two quarterbacks from schools that ran the same kind of offense - maybe even two from the same school - on a given team (not necessarily the Panthers). One is designated the starter while the other is named the backup. Why?
    • yeah, pretty sure boss.....when things match and fit in the NFL.....the results then show it.  and when they don't, well, the results show that as well.  Bryce doesn't fit.   *but I get why late season and wants to argue with everyone Mr. Scot has also turned into a please don't talk to me about stats guy as well.  Given, the stats that reflect offensive productivity work against all your present arguments. 
    • Yeeeah...stats and rankings have zero to do with a discussion of scheme and skill set match. Maybe look up definitions of style vs ability and see if that helps. At this point, you've basically had three different people explain to you where you're wrong, but rather than addressing any of those statements, you're just resorting to straight deflection.  You don't get it. Either that or you're acting like you don't get it so that you can avoid the discussion because it's not going well for you. (that wouldn't surprise me either) 😄 Sme result either way, I suppose.
