Predictions on firings if we lose this game?

I dont see anyone getting fired even if we have a 4 and 12 type season.  Too many excuses can be made by all involved.

I think the opposite. Gentleman is feeling a ton of heat right now from the media. Most are putting this season's failures directly at his feet. If the season tanking continues he's going to need to deflect some of that blame and scapegoat some coaches.

Mid-season? Not our way historically, and I don't see a conservative G-man or Rivera making such drastic moves in-season. Postseason? It would not only be this game, but would have to be a sum of horribly bad games.  I really don't think anyone is going anywhere, except for some position coaches if the season ends badly.

Personally I think that no one will get the boot if we lose. I do want to see Shula gone though

if you scapegoat coaches....you have to scapegoat coaches that oversee what you significantly stink at (which isn't offense)

So if Ron gets backed into a corner where he feels he has to throw a coach under the bus for his own security....he would have to look at DL, CB, etc coaching and claim they were the issue (even though Gettlemen created the actual issue)

No one mid season, but going 1-6 to start the season after a Superbowl appearance is an epic embarrassment

only season Ron has fired a coach in season was after we hit the 2-7 mark

we hit that, Carolina IMO will have to start scapegoating more players and coaches.  They don't deserve it.  But they will be forced to throw someone under the bus to attempt to explain away the embarrassment.  B/c if it gets any worse....more and more attention gets put on the epic fail of Gettlemen.  Gettlemen however isn't going to admit he is the reason for the epic implosion (which he will be)....so he will start putting pressure on Ron for explanations.

I've said this before - Gettleman isn't going to come right out and say "I fuged up", but you can take it to the bank he will be spending some money on the secondary for the first time in his tenure as GM this offseason. If he doesn't, he should be fired.

who in the media has any control over Gettleman's job?

    • I'm convinced Harden wants to do nothing but put up pretty shots and try to draw fouls and then do nothing on defense lol. Brunson went off though   
    • Baker was traded before he played his 5th year.  RGIII was cut before playing his 5th year. So it is rare but it happens. 
    • Time to hit 4000 yards and 30 TDs (including rushing). I don't care about INTs anymore. That's a big part of the problem. He plays uber conservative until the game is on the line. Playing not to lose, instead of playing to win. Time to let it friggin rip from the get. The team can win with a pick or 2 if he has 3-4 TDs. Stop playing scared.  But to be fair, his WRs have not been great. You all can bash about 1st round picks and O-line cap all you want.  Chuba as your #1 RB his entire career.  Adam Thielen as your best WR for 2 of 3 seasons is ridiculous. Then a rookie as your best in the 3rd season. Legette is not a 1st round talent. Probably closer to a 4th if you compare him to Brazzel this year. Coker has been a walking injury report. Nothing else to really speak of at WR or TE. Jimmy Horn has potential, but he is not an NFL starter yet. Oline has been better as run blockers than pass blockers. Ickey has always been so-so as a pass blocking LT. Center has been a revolving door for 3 years. Damien Lewis has been as marketed. Hunt is a great run blocker but an ok pass blocker - when healthy. Moton has been solid at RT. Biggest problem with the oline has been depth. When someone went down, their replacement became a glaring weakness. Overall a good but not great unit the last 2 years. 2023 was a ish show. Nothing else to say.  Not one game breaker, take it to the house offensive weapon since DJ Moore. Hopefully we get a little of that from Brazzell.  Either way, in his 4th season, it doesn't matter. You have to be able to overcome whatever comes your way. First 3 seasons with a young supporting cast is defendable. Can't use that anymore though. 3rd year in the offense. 3rd year with the same HC.
