Mr. Scot

Rodgers becomes the Assistant DB Coach.  Curtis Fuller moves from Assistant DBs to Assistant Special Teams.

 

Rivera's comment...

 

Head coach Ron Rivera believes the change puts both coaches in better position to help guide the Panthers to success.

"They are better fits," Rivera said. "It's a matter of putting guys in the right chair. I think that's what we've done."

dehaven got the job he should have had all along and we'll be better for it.

 

rodgers got demoted to a position more in line with what he was qualified for and is relatively harmless in that capacity. not a big deal whatsoever.

 

win/win

The good news is Richard Rodgers is primarily a secondary coach for his whole career. He should have been with secondary this whole time, so it's good he's being put where he should have been in the first place

Bad news is Curtis Fuller is an ex-NFL safety who was one of the best up-and-coming secondary coaches in the NFL. Dumb we are moving him to special teams just because moRon and Rodgers were teammates at Cal and moRon wants to help out his old buddy's career

Hopefully we don’t see a drop off in the development of our young secondary now.

    • if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying 
    • So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
