If I were Ron Rivera

At the very least, that last drive Cam should have been taken out. Panthers should be fined. A gang of Broncos should be fined, and suspended; while that ref crew should be suspended without pay. Nobody was really looking out for Cam last night, which is why it's really appalling to me that he continues to play this submissive role towards the NFL and other issues.

I totally agree. The more attention that this gets, the bigger the chances of making a change to how Cam is (not) being protected by the referees. If Rivera makes a clear statement, and attacks the league and referees, than the attention will come by itself. Doing nothing, and just send the tapes to New York, obviously doesn't change a thing

Ha, you guys.  He won't say anything and neither will JR because they are all apart of the big profit sharing machine.   They know this is going to happen and they aren't allowed to speak on it.  The NFL has a hush hush policy.   Any real coach would have ran onto that field after the 2nd no call on helmet to helmet and unleashed till he got kicked out.   But being cogs in the machine, it just keeps on.    There will be no savior in a head coach or an owner that worships the NFL logo for us, it just won't happen.

I am very disappointed with Riveras performance last night on a couple of levels. Friggin guy looks as bad as he did his first year here.

I wonder why NFL coaches seem to be so more even keel than baseball coaches. In baseball, the coach would have been on the field in the umps face and throwing poo all over the field.

RON NEEDS TO BLOW UP AND MAKE A STAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Remember he hadn't seen the video yet.  A bunch of reporters tweeted last night that they had no idea of how bad it was until they saw the tape.

I too wanted Ron to scream about this, but I'm gonna trust him a bit longer with his method.  If he doesn't speak up AFTER he's reviewed things, I'll worry.

We know he's a players coach and loves those guys.  I can't believe he'd stand for this kind of viciousness.  I think he'll take a stand, but he'll do it his way.

If I am Jerry Richardson, I am calling Ron Rivera and his O-line coach and asking them why they were passive about being vocal in protecting my $100 million dollar investment, of it $67 million is guaranteed.

Might want to ask the GM while at it why  it's ok to draft 3 Cbs. Two of whom are mediocre and give up a 4th rd for a punter but we can't find better tackles

If it was Jim Harbaugh, the refs would have been skinned alive on the field before being roaster over a open fire midfield on the donkey logo.

I think Ron is a great coach but this cannot keep being ignored and those refs ignored those hits.

Come on Ron.... Back your QB.
