Rivera: We've been in this situation before

- 4 games doesnt make a season

- 1 game at a time

- give the other team credit they did some good things

- we can't start like we did

 

 

Considering most of the talk here has been about Cam "deserving" a concussion and not Julio Jones having 300 receiving yards...he's right.

And I'm pretty sure the huddles collective mindset has been concussed.

Good job creating your own narrative so that you have something to get offended by...

Yes, dude.  The majority of the huddle is totally saying Cam deserved a concusion.

Why do you only post when bad things happen. I don't even remember you being around last year

Post-win discussions aren't really that interesting around here.  After a win, I usually just watch some replays and check out other games.  Post-loss discussion can be amusing sometimes.

Rivera's only hope is to win the next 4 games.

The needs for this team to be a winner are glaring. It is apparent they have not been addressed.

It is one thing to have a poor season because the core of the team was aging out of the NFL like the 1996 team going into 1997 or the 2008 team going into 2009 following a run since 2003. It is completely different to have a 2013 team that was easy to build on and thrown away for the 2014 season, or the 2015 team that was discarded for the 2016 youth movement. This team had several key pieces in place that were discarded for the future of the team.

Isn't this every other year success exactly what the Panthers wanted to get away from? If they are satisfied without back to back winning seasons, then they should have just stuck with what they had in place. This Gettleman/Rivera era was placed on the expectation of consistent winning seasons. Anything less is a failure.

Unfortunately, it will take the Panthers a few more seasons of this same pattern to make a move. This team could have easily been better in 2014, 2015 and 2016, but allowing the front office to ride the coattails of the previous administrations success has set the team up for years of failure with a core of talent that any other team would love to build around.

Anything a team does in its current era means nothing without that first SB championship. Pay for it and then try to build the team out for a dynasty the next 2 to 3 years following that trophy.

The Panthers front office has put a dynasty of mediocre to good division champions ahead of being a SB champion.

I wonder if that should be an indictment on his low IQ ass...

"We've been here before" I'd respond with "Yea and that's the fugin problem fool" I mean really...

Goodness he's not all there up top...how about try to NOT be in this position Ron...

I don't really mind losing, or even getting your butt handed to you when you deserve it, which we did.

The better team always wins, and I'll still be a fan 16-0 or 0-16. What pi$$es me off is lack of preparation and/or going through the motions. No excuse for that.

I hate these arrogant press conferences too. We are a bad team so far. Call a spade a spade. Don give me "we've been here before" gtfou

The score is misleading. This was a complete beat down. No one on this team looked like they were trying until the 4th quarter

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
