Yeah I don’t buy this. I buy that Tep comes in here and everyone has to prove themselves but as long as we have a winning season and make the playoffs I’d say he’s pretty secure (and that looks likely).

If the team implodes from this point on, then very possible this is true. If they make the playoffs and actually make some noise, then all bets are off. I do think that if they don't make the Superbowl and win it within the next couple of years, then he will clean house.

From what I have seen so far this season, this is not a team that can make the SB and win it this year.

If Rivera is on the hot-seat then nearly every coach in this league needs to be. 

You are what your record is and right now the Panthers are 3-1. That's about as good as you can ask for in the NFL after 4 games. This isn't Alabama verses Cupcake U. You take wins how you get them and move on. 

Along as the Panthers keep winning this should be a moot point.

Generally put Rivera is mediocre and his philosophy dated.

This is a case example of talent (Luke, Cam) overcoming coaching deficiencies and philosophies. And sadly, Rivera's job is once more secured as long as those two continue being the future Hall of Famers they are.

Second paragraph.

Yeah just read it, and again, it doesn't surprise me and Jeremy has heard a lot of whispers well before any of the beat writers before, so, it's legit...  and again, Tepper was rumored to be one of the minority owners who wanted Tomlin ousted from Pitt last year, so if he wanted Tomlin gone, I imagine he has very little patience for Ron's passive, conservative, play (not) to lose approach.

Good to hear.  Only thing that scares me, as much as I've been ready to move on from him, is the complete turnover of the coaching staff with Cam and Luke just hitting their primes...  there is usually a pretty steep learning curve with new staffs, especially the type most of our fanbase desires...  then again, if you were gonna do it, may as well do it after this season if we don't win a Superbowl and get the process started ASAP.

      NFC South is now ACTIVATED

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      There are several posters that only post negative at all times.   8 wins is a big jump from 5 and we still have 2 games.  Jaguars have a much more talented roster than us and have underachieved for years.

      Todd Bowles is losing his locker room… Canales meanwhile

      By amcoolio · Posted

      All of this noise is just setting us up to lose Week 18 and proclaim life's not fair. If there's one thing I know in my 30+ years of watching the Hornets and Panthers, is that the bad guy always wins in the end. A team can be falling apart internally but we will still lose to them. A team's fanbase can be extra shitty and cocky and they will just win anyway. It always happens

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Well even if we took diverging paths getting there...our overall assessment of Shough is the same (bolded) lol so I guess that's what matters.  What you call "playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter" is the same thing I'm referencing when I talk about his poise.  Although I still wonder how truly "bad" of a team the Saints are.  Their defense is middle-of-the-road, and their offense does have some good pieces (Olave, Juwan Johnson) outside of running back which is the position most everyone agrees is relatively plug-and-play.  I'm not going to pretend to know anything about the majority of NFL team's o-lines lol but I'm assuming Saints are not great there, although Shough's pressure % seems to have been quite low (and steadily improving) over the last four weeks (20 -> 16.7 -> 15.0 -> 13.0) so maybe they've been playing better as of late, or perhaps Shough himself deserves credit for that.   Some of the language I'm hearing about Shough, including talking about how he's way above league average in several categories, makes it sound like Shough is having a rookie season on par with like a CJ Stroud who established himself as basically a Top 5-10 QB his rookie season.  Maybe that's on me though, I don't mean to attribute anything to you that I'm sure you don't agree with.
