Tried my best to come up with who RR reminds me of.

And I think I've figured it out.

Ron Rivera is Jeff Fisher.  Through and through.

Wins just enough, and knows just enough that you just can't seem to get rid of him.  Players play for him, he seems stable, but just can't quite put it all together.

Seems confounded by all things offense, is unwilling, or unable to stay on top of both league trends, and in game decisions.

I'm sad.

Well he's a little bit 'better' than Fisher since he's had better players overall.  But yea if you put RR on Fishers old teams he does worse actually. Fisher actually tried to win and even used cheap tactics but you couldn't confuse that he wanted to win at all costs.

Ron Rivera is a bitch who doesn't want to win hardly at any cost much less at all costs. He likes to let the other team come back for free and has the other coaches feelings in mind when determining how to manage the game.

Probably a good comparison.

Used to hear people describe Fisher as one of the best coaches in the league. Thought to myself "whatever they're seeing, I don't see it at all."

Ron:  Cross wind, execute, put players in a place to succeed, it's a process, punts are good plays too, that's a good Eagles team, couldn't get the run game going....

Reporter:  Do you envision any changes on the coaching staff?

      Myles Garrett Traded to Rams

      By electro's horse · Posted

      I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
