I can't stand Ron Rivera

One thing about Ron is a lack of accountability. He always blames the players not executing and gives himself and his staff a pass. The only time he ever showed any accountability for the staff was when he was on the hot seat in his first few seasons and canned a few coordinators. But even that was nothing more than a last ditch attempt to keep his job by throwing someone, anyone, under the bus.

Lolwut?? He always puts accountability on coaching staff in needed from my observations on pressors

Every time the camera cuts to Rivera’s emotionless face on the sidelines I feel like  punching a hole through my TV.

even worse is when you see the headset mic flipped up...  is he even coaching or just modeling NFL shop polos?

Ron's approach is not working anymore.  He won't adapt or change his philosophy enough to be consistently successful - the same problem this franchise has had with every coach.  

The next hire needs to be a young guy who is not set in his ways and is willing to change when things aren't working and bring some fire to this team. The "career defensive coordinator" approach to selecting a coach has yielded a good season or two sandwiched around a bunch of mediocrity and, at times, very amateur performances.

    • Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.
    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
