No more Riverboat Ron


Ja  Rhule

Recommended Posts

"Riverboat Ron" was never who he was at his core. It's who Cam and the fans demanded he become. The less faith Ron is feeling in his team, the less confidence it inspires. The less confident players are, the worse they play. When we're winning, he has no problem making the call to go for it on 4th and 2.

I think he will get fired towards the end of the season. He took us to the Superbowl but he couldn't bring the Lombardi trophy to Charlotte. His ship has sunk. We get the right coach and The Panthers can win it all in 2 years.

There is no way he's getting fired after three straight playoff seasons.  He'll point to this year as being hampered by a ton of injuries, and honestly five of our losses have came by a FG or less.  However if we don't win at least 10 games next year I think his seat will be pretty damn hot.

The Ron Rivera who introduced himself in his first press conference was absolutely the guy I wanted coaching this team.

At some point within those first two losing seasons, adversity smacked him right in the face and he lost the confidence that made him that guy.

He hasn't been the same since.

It is not Rivera. It is the man feeding Rivera's system with liabilities while not addressing weak positions.

The answers to keep this team competitive were available and obvious. Instead, the front office had to weaken the defense and the offense with their project players of the future.

Even if you decided to get rid of Rivera, who would you replace him with? Keep in mind an inexperience head coach will likely take 3 years to round out into a coach capable of competing in the playoffs. Might as well slam the door shut on the Cam and Luke era if you do that. The only coach that would make sense would have to be one with extensive head coaching playoff experience.

    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
    • 7 wins this year and some of those against really good teams and yall think Canales might get fired? Lol Good luck getting a better coach in here if that happens.
