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.”

      TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
