Takes more than two players to win,  even ones of Cam's and Luke's calibre. But, we can thank Hurney for drafting two of the better players in the NFL. He really hit it out of the park with Cam,  and, even more, Luke. 

Yea he can pat himself on the  back for hitting with a 1 overall and 9 (two top 10 picks) even though we were picking that high for a reason. They were good picks in all seriousness which has little to do with RR being an idiot.

3 winning seasons out of 7.

No Cam and Rivera is out on the streets looking for another DC position.

But best coach in Panther(mediocre franchise) history!

I say that only because he adds to that mediocrity, not to rub it in.

I'm not congratulating him after his teams performance today. It did not seem like he had his team prepared for a playoff clinching home game vs a 4-10 opponent. He needs to check himself, along with the rest of the coaching staff

This. During the game everyone hates him and shula, but as soon as bareeeeely win hes back to being a good coach?

A win is a win,  and close wins happen week in and week out in the NFL.  That's just the nature of the game.  Rivera has always been a good coach. He could be a great one with better clock management and more of a killer instinct.

And we can thank DG for putting us in a great cap situation and giving us other huge pieces like Turner, Norwell, D. Williams, KK, Funch, etc.

Agree 100% top dawg. His 2013 season was spectacular coaching after the first 4 games. And then he completely forgot the "Riverboat" aspect of his coaching, which was truly amazing despite the hype of the nickname. Showed up again today with the fake punt, but still there have been WTF moments that he just shouldn't have any more--like punting for a net gain of like 15 yards earlier this year instead of a FG attempt. But overall Rivera is a very solid coach and we'd be hard pressed to find one better if we got rid of him.

I wonder what a lot of HCs records look like with Cam/Luke on the team.

Oh please.  Rivera has a similar career coaching record as Sean Payton, who most people on this board worship as an incredible coach.  Brees is a 1st ballot HOFer.  Give Rivera some credit.

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
