Rivera to media.. "Only concern around here about our WRs is from you guys."

[PanthersUnited]

I know, this isn't sexy or groundbreaking news, but I like his confidence in our WR corps, for him to be that confident and defiant in telling the media that makes me think he is either A. In denial or B. He has loved what he has seen in practice the last few days from our WRs that the media didn't see and was cutoff from and he really feels like that. I hope it's B.

Oh he said this today BTW during our presser 

[frash.exe]

Yea he said something to the same effect about the LT situation last year and look how that turned out

I mean at what point is this board going to stop waiting for Ron to insult our intelligence? The WR situation is crap, everybody knows it, but you're not going to get him to admit to that because his job is not to bury his own players, it's to be constructive.

Really......you're just going to leave this here ?

like there arnt enough bash the GM, HC or WR threads.

[Jangler]

I want a coach that blows smoke up my ass.

Srsly tho...what's he supposed to say?

It's C.

Whatever he thinks of his guys, he's not gonna bash them in the media.

...he was a Fua fan.

If our receivers run good routes, get open, Cam makes an accurate throw and the ball is caught, our receiving group is fine.

thanks captain obvious.

The Panthers are one injury away from having a very solid WR core in 2015.  After the Panthers drafted Funchess, I think everyone was excited about our WR's.  Nobody expected or wanted KB to blow out his knee, but this is the NFL and injuries happen. With the improved o-line, I think the Panthers are going to ground & pound more and that is not a bad thing.  In addition to an improved o-line, the Panthers also have some very talented RB's in Stewart, CAP, and etc.  I still think the Panthers will pick up another WR, but in the meantime enjoy the running game.

Until somebody actually fugs up in a real game he really shouldn't be saying anything different. Its not likely him playing Pinocchio is going to turn water into wine ,  but him going all Huddle on his own players can only be counterproductive at this point.

[stankowalski]

Coach speak.  The man isn't going to come out in public and say "yeah, you know what?  Our receivers suck.  We'll be lucky to win 7 games this year.  How bout dem Cowboys!?"

[CRA]

Coach speak...

 

Ron would be licking his chops as a defensive coordinator if he was gameplanning for a team with our WR corp

whoever sucks or whatever is weak...Ron always praises

oh man,imagine the splinters trying to catch him.

[Gin and Juice]

My god, I hope we draft two WRs next year......in the first rd. maybe some of you would calm down

[Jmac]

He can say whatever he wants as long as they have a game plan to feature the run game and tightends. That is this teams saving grace with the WR corp they have.We will see if Shula will or will not be a bone head when preparing a game plan
