Ron Rivera is a great man.

Ron Rivera is a good coach.

Ron Rivera inculcates a great locker room culture.

Ron Rivera is not in the top tier of coaches, but not the lowest

Ron Rivera will not survive 3 GMs and 4 GM changes.  

End. 

Prediction: 2018 will give us a new coach and new GM.  Hurney is not going to get it back as so many assume.  

Now let's beat the sh*t out of New England.

If he wins a third COTY award, do you think he might make this list?

It's his lack of consistency that keeps him off the list...at least for now.  Also, we always start the year slowly and it take a while to get the gears going.  That's something the top coaches don't do.  Occasionally, sure, but not every year.  Even when we win early, is usually because we are fortunate to play a soft opening schedule which allows us to get away with not playing well (see 2015 and this year).  In order for Rivera to join the upper echelon of coaches, he needs to do a better job of getting the team ready to play right out of the gate.  We can't always count on a soft schedule to get us by until we start clicking.

Top coaches also don't field teams that play weaker in the second half.

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.
