Ron was right. This is what you cried for.

After watching the Carolina and Detroit game end like it did. I was in awe how we over came Devin Funches off day by dropping a TD, and 3 other catches that would have been first downs. Detroit player stepped out of bounds on a play that should of killed the drive. Cam Newton had 357 Passing yards and 3 TDs.  The defense missed 9 tackles Sunday. Gram Gano was also drinking the same kool-aid as Devin Funches for he cost the team 4 total points. With that being said Ron knew all of this and he decided to no longer be a "coward" and play for overtime. Many of you guys here complain about Ron after every loss and even most wins and you wanted him to have more "balls" as you call it. Well here he is! He wanted to win the game by any means. A Bill B type call. Maybe you rather play for overtime and hope Detroit makes a mistake against your struggling defense.  Overall I like the call I believe we will take care of the Seashawks this Sunday.  The team knows Ron means business. Also Cam I can not blame you for you balled out and misfires happen. However this is what you been screaming for. Live with it and get behind your team. Stop acting like spoiled brats after EVERY single game. RIOT  MF RIOT

This is peak Ron Rivera.

Of course going for it wasn't the right call. Either way Detroit gets the ball back with plenty of time to get in field goal range. If time was about to expire, sure you can make an argument to go for two.

But Rivera is not too smart. Going for two in this situation was strictly a "I don't trust Gano to make an extra point" play. Of course Ron probably didn't see it that way, but that's what it was.

So many things can go wrong in one play with the game on the line. Why risk it? A tipped pass, one missed block, dropped pass, over throw....

The correct decision there is to kick the extra freaking point and play for overtime.

I liked the call. No qualms about it.

I just hate the fact he refuses to give Curtis Samuel significant snaps and chooses to throw players under the bus instead of evaluating himself.

As a coach you hold players accountable. Ron has faced pressure since day one in Carolina. The winning-est coach in franchise history. He finally has the offensive coordinator he wanted. He will get the defensive coordinator he wants next season. I believe his hands were tied on personal decisions and coaches under JR. We will be ok.

The point is ya'll would still cry if he played for overtime and we lost. The only thing going Carolinas way yesterday was the play of Cam Newton and DJ Moore.... Thats about it. It was the right call. Cam just missed the throw.

I don't know what the point of this is because I don't see many people complaining about going for two. People are rightfully pissed at Ron for once again throwing his players and team under the bus and having zero accountability for his own coaching decisions that hold this team back.

He hasn't changed. At least not intentionally. Ron Rivera displayed himself to be the same scared coach he always has been by deciding to punt on the previous offensive drive late in the 4th quarter on 4th and a few yards. Wasted opportunities were self inflicted from the staff as well as some players. That much is certain. What is also certain is that Rivera still can't resist but to stick to his ultra conservative approach to game management until it's too late. The 2 point conversion call was just Ron panicking after his usual play it safe antics backfired yet again.

    • Oh please with the wallowing in victimhood I'm going to take my ball and go home routine. You were just in here referring to people as super weird haters because they don't completely agree with your borderline delusional spin on what Bryce Young is and isn't as a fourth year starter. We can hope by some miracle that Bryce Young will actually be able to lead a formidable passing offense this season without being irrational homers and pretending verfiable data and what we have seen with our own two eyes doesn't tell us exactly what he has been to this point which is someone who moves the ball at a historically low rate.
    • I am curious who's behind all of this though. A video and photos from years ago surfacing? Someone has a vendetta and is driving this PR campaign. I'm loving it, but I'd also like to know who said mystery figure is. 
    • I say positive things about Bryce when he earns them. Which he has a handful of times. It is all here and on the record but your lobby won’t focus on that or the flat out truth inside of our critical comments.  It is a constant thing with him and his backers - one or two good things and people are trying to extrapolate that to proof we should commit to him, while ignoring or making excuses for the larger portion of his track record.  When he is able to consistently turn in franchise QB extension worthy outings the tone of the posts will reflect that.  I have already said that if he would play like he did in the WC as often as we need him to, I would be okay with keeping him.  See you don’t want to talk about that though because it shows actual fair minded evaluation not stanning.
