Rivera's Job just got put on notice.

How well the Panthers do from here on out will more than likely determine if Rivera stays next year. You can expect a change at GM but Rivera is definitely on the hot seat. I expect the Panthers to be at there very best from here on out because Rivera is at his best when under pressure.

A coach who has made the playoffs the last 4 of 5 years, with a SB appearance, is on the hot seat?  A coach in the top 10 active in win percentage?  I don't think so

 

Only active HCs who haven't won a SB with better win% than Ron is Zimmer, Reid, and Arians.  Tell me who we'd be upgrading to again?

Rivera is entering Tony Dungy territory when he was in Tampa. He put together a winning team, but stuck loyally to some principles that did him in (one of them being keeping the same OC that gives us fits every Sunday) 

If Shula goes, Rivera is safe. If Shula stays, they both get canned together down the road

you're talking about Riveras job security when we're 10 - 4 and poised to make a playoff run?

Nah, I doubt hes going anywhere or at the very least he'll get 1 more year after putting together a winning season after last year. He's built up too much of a resume with a winning record and likely 4 playoff seasons in 5 years with a SB appearance . 

Now Shula? Thats a totally different story. He could def be canned for someone else.

    • The aversion to tying up too much money in the ground game when it’s what’s winning us games is crazy to me. I get letting Rico walk if you think he’s easily replaceable but I don’t see many people arguing that, just applying an arbitrary salary cap based on what we think RBs are currently worth. I’d rather be stuck with Hubbard as an overpaid backup (not the worst one to have, mind you) than lose out on the most productive player on the offense personally.
    • Why do people keep saying things like “it’s not Young’s fault we spent so much to draft him”? Who cares if it’s his fault?  Nobody is saying send him to jail or anything.  People aren’t talking about blame for the decision to draft him, they’re talking about how bad he is as a QB and how we’d be much better with even an average QB.  Pointing out that we sunk a lot of resources into drafting him isn’t invalidated because he didn’t make that decision himself. Doesn’t matter whose fault that was, he’s still not playing like a QB who was drafted at all, much less one that cost two firsts, two seconds and a #1 WR.
