Early on in his time here, Rivera hired two or three coaches that he wound up firing a year later.

Don't know whether he's changed his processes any since then.

I still think Rivera is terrible at personnel decisions. Hopefully Dave will get a input because that's where he excels at.

also, the majority of this staff has been together for like 4-6 years. they're probably pretty tight.

Funny, I wish they'd recognize how that same attribute can work for an O-line. 

Keep 'em together for 4-6 years and you'll have a solid, consistently winning football team.

You're the one saying, "hand me downs," over coaches you don't even know, as if you are one to even know a damn thing about what you spew.

You don't agree, big deal.  It's immature of you to resort to antagonistic half witted insults as opposed to providing contrary evidence.  

Since you seem to be a little sluggish at following along I'll spell this out for you.

Hand me downs are

2. Of inferior quality; shabby. 

Aka the stuff no one else wants.  Mike Shula is a hand me down.   Leave it alone.

I have done it.  hired two employees quickly after one interview because I knew they were a fit.  this was 5 years ago.  they are still with the company and doing well.  some people have the ability to make quick decisions that are good.  Ron is not one of these people, and that's fine.  everyone has their process, the only thing that matters is the result.

it's not always about making a quick decision, but usually about finding a quality candidate. how many HOF caliber coaches do you think are out there? it's not like they can open a req and get a few hundred qualified applicants in a week.

you may want to read your original post to which I replied, then read my reply again.  I even made the text bold

your main point, to which you were replying to my post, was about the speed at which you were able to find acceptable candidates. you were suggesting that you finding good candidates was due to your mad skills as a hiring manager.

my point is that the speed of finding an acceptable candidate often relies on elements out of your control, such as the size of the talent pool for the job you are hiring.

never said it was due to "mad skills"; just replying to your point that "if you don't want to rehire again in 6 months, you better take your time". I gave an example showing otherwise.  then I said this:

some people have the ability to make quick decisions that are good.  Ron is not one of these people, and that's fine.  everyone has their process, the only thing that matters is the result.

then you said: "it's not always about making a quick decision, but finding a high quality candidate" 

^basically what I said

It seems you just like to argue; that's fine.  say what you will, I will no longer participate.  have a good evening

    • Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.  
    • I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us. 
    • From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
