We all know Ron Rivera is good in the second half of the season, and mainly in December...but just how good? Well I did some research and here is what I found:

 

Ron Rivera In Month Of December (Career With Panthers):

 

2011: 
3-1
Outscored Opponents 137-79

 

2012:
4-1
Outscored Opponents 143-98

 

2013:
4-1
Outscored Opponents 108-90

 

2014:
4-0
Outscored Opponents 111-43

 

Totals:
15-3
Outscored Opponents 499-310

 

 

So...15 wins to 3 losses in the month of December with an average victory of 10.5 points (aka two possesions)....someone should put Ron's calendar to December and let it stay there year long...

 

The one discouraging thing however is that from 2011-2012 we were putting up an average of 140 points in December under Chud's offense...meanwhile from 2013-2014 under Shula, we only have averaged 109.5 points, in the same amount of games. 

 

Thoughts? Keep Pounding!

I'm actually surprised the point differential is that close. While Cam should have been better the 2 seasons under Shula (just from an experience standpoint), I think Chud had better tools, specifically Steve Smith, Jordan Gross and a younger Kalil, DWill and JStew.

Pretty impressive #s but the bottom line is what his overall record is... Am thinking it's right around .500

 

Look at Bill Belichick's record after his first 4 seasons... 31-33, with 1 playoff win. Followed by two 5-11 seasons before his success. Just saying.

And trend is in the right direction, last season aside (which is kind of unfair to assess, considering the key losses of Smitty, Gross, Hardy, Ginn, Mitchell, LaFell, etc.

So...what you're saying is Belichick was just an average coach his first 6 seasons, then realized it's easier to win when you cheat on lucky season number 7? ;)

      Bryce is elite at deep throws

      By beckersteen · Posted

      We had a QB who could do that and its the last time we went to the Super Bowl and the only time we had an MVP. Once he lost his ability to do that he was out of the league. To filter out insignificant stats I will only look at QBs who have played in 10 or more games this year. There are 28 qualifying QBs. Bryce is 25th in Air Yards per Attempt at 6.4. Only Joe Flacco, Cam Ward, and Dillon Gabriel are worse (6.0, 5.8, 5.1). Trevor Lawrence, Patrick Mahomes, and CJ Stroud are the median QBs at 7.1. Drake Maye and Sam Darnold lead the league at 8.7. Bryce is 18th in the league for passes that travel 30+ yards at 12. The median is Caleb Williams at 15. The league leader is Matthew Stafford with 26. With passes that travel 40+ yards, Bryce is tied with three others at 21st in the league with 3. Only Jacoby Brissett, Cam Ward, Joe Flacco, and Dillon Gabriel are worse. The median is a three-way tie with Drake Maye, Trevor Lawrence, and Baker Mayfield with 6. The league leader is Sam Darnold with 12. Having the ability to complete passes down the field (not YAC) stretches the defense and makes them account for more ground. It keeps players out of the box and keeps formations in nickel or dime, less line backers for your RBs to worry about. Bryce is why we have 2 losses against the Saints. If he had the outright ability to sling the football down field we beat the easily, but he doesn't. So they crowded the box and our 2 starting caliber RBs with our top ~10 Oline couldn't carry the offense to a win on their own. The limitations of the offense fall squarely on Bryce.

      Bryce’s deep passes are intermediate passes for other strong armed QBs. I will say that Bryce’s accuracy on his deep passes have improved. Before they would just sail out of bounds. Now the WR actually has a fighting chance on the ball.
