Ron Rivera presser

So he pretty much said that letting Norman go was a mistake, so my question is is this a move that Rivera signed off on or was this a solo Gettlean move?

I see Norman is the new Smith here.

I don't want Rivera gone.... I want DG gawn fast! Faster than him running for a cheeseburger... His inability to reconstruct the defensive line and drafting 3 rookie CBs with no veteran presence (today Ron said McClain and Bene were veterans ha) pretty much said this is a rebuilding year, so sorry fans you're gonna suck and you're gonna have to accept it.

And another I missed from the beginning of Ron's presser:

I know a lot has been made about the secondary but this has been almost as bad. any NFL QB can sit back and pick a team apart without a pass rush

What they are doing is this football concept called "blocking", Ron.

And usually doing it with only one of what is commonly known as a "blocker".

Wait, I was told on good authority by all The Huddle experts that DG cut Bene because he was on a GM power trip.

Oddly enough, it almost sounds like Ron and his coaching staff had something to do with it.

How about we start worrying about getting the DEFENSE into a rhythm, Ron?

Oh sweet baby jeebus, now Ron WANTS the other team to throw the ball... smdh.

It's so funny to watch you guys constantly refeshing the forum homepage and looking for news and sound bites and outraging when you don't get the answers you want over and over again

Said it before. If it isn't an effort issue with the d-line, then there is something about our scheme and our players that other teams saw last year and now have stopped.

I'm disappointed they haven't fixed it yet but maybe it's not so easy to do on the fly or on game week practices.

In his presser following the release, Rivera said that he and the coaches watch some film and made a decision.

If you were paying attention, it was pretty clear from early on that Benwikere's release was a coaching decision.

Ok, not a Panthers related tweet.  But some relevance since it's a division rival.  And it makes me laugh.

Also Ron Rivera needs to have more say so in the roster. Obviously he didn't want to go into the season with his roster like this. 

Oh, hell no.

Personnel related decisions are Rivera's biggest weakness.

Says we need to get a lead early but always differs when winning the coin toss?! At this point its a given our defense can't stop anybody lol
