Rivera has the best winning percentage of all the head coaches in Panther history

He's also had Cam Newton and Luke Kuechly in their primes.

Yet we still haven't actually had back to back winning records yet.

Look I like Cam.  I think he's the best QB that we've had overall.  But his accuracy is an issue and I think a lot of that has to do with him being injured and taking so many hits.  But even healthy Cam is not the caliber of QB like a Tom Brady, Dan Marino (who never won a Super Bowl btw...how crazy is that?), or even Drew Brees.  Cam isn't excelling this year because our OL is not playing well and I think his thumb is bothering him more than we know.  

All that said, it's not about one player, or even two.  Football is the ultimate team sport.  There will never be a Michael Jordan of the NFL.

Who cares about the past? The fact remains that Ron's remarkable cowardice is a constant throughout this season. There was no reason to run the clock down with 45 seconds to go in the half.

Of course not, because we all know that all it takes its a long bomb to Byrd right?  That would fix everything.

Stopped reading there.

I fully admit that Cam's streaky accuracy is absolutely maddening at times. But if I'm making a list of issues holding this franchise back from winning a Super Bowl, Cam Newton is at the bottom of the list.

I don't know if you are drunk or trolling, but he's the only reason this wasn't a complete shutout from top to bottom.

I also have to wonder how much you actually know about football if you question whether we can win with Cam but have nothing to say about the fact that our 8th overall pick put up a whopping 16 rushing yards while once again Cam led the team in rushing.

Log out bro.

What are you talking about? I'm talking about ron choosing to run twice at the end of the 2nd quarter with 45 seconds left on the clock and two timeouts remaining. 

He basically gave up and didnt even try to score more points there, which would have greatly helped us stay in the game if we had.

    • While I have a chance to be overly excited I'll take that opportunity. The team will determine what happens with that. It's been a while since we've had much to be excited about, I'd say let's just embrace it and see how it unfolds.
    • Knowns: top 10 o line 2 proven, quality RBs 2 proven, WRs who get open and catch everything. 2 others who show a lot of ‘potential’ A QB who improved greatly in the last few games of the season, topped off by putting up a 40 burger win in OT in this franchise’s kryptonite house. What will transpire this season is yet to be seen.  defense has far less proven. 2  very good CBs, a stud DT (coming off a major injury) and the rest is, again, ‘potential.’ A DC that is essentially starting the season on the hot seat.  This is not 2003, but it could be good. 2003 was the most stacked roster from top to bottom that this team has ever had. This squad finished on a big upswing, yes, but we’ll see.  I think it all comes down to how spiked your hopium is. The running game is where it is for the team. This is not a defense that will win 3 points games. Just not. To win, this team will have to dominate TOP and come up with 2+ more 3rd down stops each game. Again, do-able and should be good for at least a 7 point differential in our favor, ‘hopefully.’  I will say that it is nice seeing talent that actually belongs in the NFL on our roster. 
    • Say what you want, but last year Bryce gave Carolina the best QB-play we've seen a very long time. A very long time. Often with rookies at WR and TE, and a RB not known for his receiving abilities. There is much reason for optimism with added weapons, and consistency/ chemistry on the offensive line and coaching staff. Now if the defense can get to average instead of a heaping lump of dog doo, this team should win a lot more games. This season is a turn the corner season. Next season is the year to press the accelerator to the floor.
