Do you think Rivera will leave Panthers?

Recommended Posts

Rumors are swirling on WFNZ and elsewhere that Riverboat Ron (or Rowboat Ron, depending on how you feel about the guy) might leave the organization in the off-season. I know a lot of people here can't stand him, but in reality, he's been the best coach the Panthers have ever had. During is time in Carolina, he has helped create the winningest culture the Panthers have ever seen.

 

Sometimes the grass isn't always greener and I think it could really hurt this team moving forward and eventually we'd see a lot of our key players playing elsewhere in the coming years.

 

I know rumors are just that; rumors, but it just adds more to this mountain of a mess that will be the 2018 Carolina Panthers' off-season.....:thinking:

I think most of those rumors are based on the notion of us winning the Super Bowl.

He has one more season on his contract. My guess is at the very least, he'll play that out.

The fact that his current contract expires right about the time new ownership will be taking control is something to watch though.

Rumors originating from where exactly?

Wfnz has been talking about it.  Don't know where they get it.  Rumor is with ownership fluctuation, and only 1 year left on contact, he would consider the bears job.  Tbh, it sounds kinda odd, but I'd say not infathomable.

    • Wow that’s actually really cool chatgpt can do that Although, as we know Arizona sat in soft zone the entire second half. So there was a lot of dinking and dunking, but that’s the right thing to do in that situation.  Week 1 pass chart doesn’t look bad. He pushes the ball downfield more than several other quarterbacks I’ve watched. For some reason the huddle thinks other quarterbacks are constantly throwing 60 yard bombs. That is absolutely not the case. Some quarterbacks aren’t taking any deep shots at all.
    • We keep referring to it as Over drafting him like he was really a first round draft pick. We traded up at the end of the first to get him in a deal with Buffalo so that we could grab him and get an extra year on his contract if needed. At the time that sounded like "If he really soars, we can get that fifth year extension automatically". It really probably meant, "We might need five years to really get him up to starting WR speed."  He was basically a second rounder with a potentially meaningless pick as well to pay for those rights. Still, I think that with him we are on the Kelvin Benjamin bubble right now... will he ever be more than just an athlete? Can he really learn to fight and compete for that ball? Can he learn professional routes? Can he handle the fame and more money than he's ever seen in his life? Can he handle all of the pressure a fanbase puts on him? Tough shoes to fill. Not sure I'd want to be in them. I hope he gets it all together soon. A lot, most draftees, can't. Good luck and God bless to the young man. He's got a lot of work to do in a very unforgiving workplace.
    • This is the #1 reason I defend Bryce. Everyone around him is learning on the job, including him. But hey in 3 years we could have a talented offense that grew up together.
