No "Victory Monday" for Panthers. "Players are in there working," says Ron Rivera.

 

Rivera said this year's team is younger, so Panthers can't afford to take a day off.

 

It’s not a ‘victory Monday’ for #Panthers today. Usually players can peace out after team meetings after a win, but RR switching it up.

"We've got to find a certain something" with a younger group. Rivera says working on controlling the moment.

 

Rivera: "We control the moment. We are going to work that way."

 

Rivera said #Panthers not looking at the end, but looking at the race.

 

Rivera praising O-line. Same group 2 weeks in a row for first time since October.

 

Rivera called it a "solid performance" over the Saints. Said Cam Newton was "exceptional."

 

Ron Rivera said Amini Silatolu will be out a while longer.

 

Rivera said the O-line will stay the same for Tampa Bay. Said Amini Silatolu had knee scoped.

 

“Amini’s going to be out a while.” Same O-line combo coming up vs Bucs.

Rivera: The number of carries Stewart got is the number we want him to get

 

Rivera still not willing to name Stewart RB starter.

 

Rivera said "we'll see'' when asked if DeAngelo Williams would be the starter if he returns. Also said "we'll see" on return. #Panthers

 

Steve Reed @SteveReedAP

Rivera calls DeAngelo Williams "day by day," wouldn't declare a starter moving forward at RB even after Stewart runs for 155.

When asked why he is hesitant to name Stewart the starter, Rivera said "my preference."

 

Rivera, former player, likely doesn't want to say or do anything that would be viewed as a slight toward franchise's rushing leader.

 

Rivera said winning feels different. Says even the media treats him nicer. Guess we shouldn't ask about punt return coverage. #Panthers

 

Ron Rivera: In life you get a second chance. It's called tomorrow.

 

"In life you get a second chance. It's called 'tomorrow,'" Rivera says in reference to maintaining during losing streak.

 

Coaches film showed 8 dropped passes for Saints, which is pretty incredible.

Rivera says Panthers counted 5 QB hits and 4 pressures for DE Charles Johnson vs. #Saints.

 

Rivera said DE Charles Johnson deserved a couple of sacks. Hit QB five times. Likes the way he's played last four weeks.

 

Rivera high on Charles Johnson's play of late. Was very disruptive in New Orleans despite not officially recording a sack.

I'm hoping the comments by Rivera on the RB situation is just Rivera being coy and not revealing too much to the media.

 

if Williams starts next Sunday, Richardson should wake up, ride his golf cart to the field, grab a mic, b**** slap rivera, and fire him in front of 70,000.

And this is why you suck as a head coach, Ron.

Rivera says he didn't think Cam was taunting when he did his "Superman" celebration next to Cameron Jordan.

 

"It shows what we're capable of," Rivera on dominant victory against talented team. "Now we've just got to believe in it and build off it."

 

Ron Rivera said he didn't believe Cam Newton taunted the Saints to start the scuffle. #Panthers

 

Joe Person @josephperson

Rivera: "You can't win two until you win one. Well, we won the first one. Now we're going to get the second one."

 

Rivera will watch MNF tonight and “cheer for the right team.”

      Joint Practice - Jets

      Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.

      Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.

      You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
