Panthers might not get Chip Kelly twice

I don't think Rivera gets fired even with a loss tomorrow. As ugly as this season has been being the first coach in the NFCS to repeat counts for something.

With that said I fully believe we will win tomorrow, it's when we play Seattle in Seattle that has me concerned

Ideal scenario:

 

Beat Cards, Lions get a huuge upset in Seattle...after they get it together, beating the Cowgirls.  

 

NFCC in Charlotte against Detroit.

Torn. Potentially playing Seattle means the Cowboys win. I can never bring myself to root for the Cowboys.

If the Lions win they play Seattle and we play Green Bay. Seattle gets the lowest seed left. Lions are a 6 seed, we are 4, Cowboys are 3.

I go back and forth with Rivera. There's a solid NFL coach in him, but sometimes his conservative, tight butthole, coaching not to lose bullshit gets the better of him. I think the Panthers could get beat 50-0 tomorrow and he'd still be safe. The repeat division championship and playoff appearances combined with Jerry's reluctance to pay coaches that no longer work for him more than likely bought him 2 more safe years here. Rivera squeaked by this year by about as close as you can get.

I think if we get beat down, Rivera is out. It's the only way.

I disagree. I just hope Ron has the team ready tomorrow because we know Arians will have the Cards ready. They could trot out Ryan Leaf tomorrow and I'd still be worried. This is a big opportunity for Rivera to fully slam his foot down and let the fan base know he is the coach and he ain't going anywhere.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
