Could this just be Ron auditioning for his next job elsewhere as a DC?

Anyone think it's possible that Tepper already told Rivera he'll be fired after the season, and now the changes today are just Ron trying to prove himself as a defensive play caller again so he's highly sought after in the offseason? Not sure I believe it but it was an interesting thought that crossed my mind,

If Rivera is fired, he'll likely get a shot at HC once more, so I doubt that he's auditioning for a demotion. 

Not so sure about right away. I bet more along the lines of Kubiak after the Texans fired him and he got the Broncos job after a stint as OC. Especially in this day of coaching where most teams are looking for young, promising offensive minds...

It's entirely possible. I think Ron sees the writing on the wall.

I just think he’s been slow to change until the season is now done for.

he should have made that change after Pittsburgh.

i mean had we won the 3 games since Pitt and came in 9-3 instead of 6-5 and then had this game with 4 ints, we probably still pull it out at 10-3 but if we don’t we 9-4, season still a maybe.

him waiting put us out.

I think that teams are just looking for coaches that can win. Sean McVay is an anomaly. 

Of course this doesn't mean teams don't want "young, promising offensive minds," but I'm not so sold quite yet that most of these owners want to make them head coaches without some legit experience.

      Either way there's some tough teams on the schedule this year, on paper anyways.

      Same. I would prefer a MNF game earlier in the season. As if more likely has some significance in case things go south this season. If we perform well enough we could even get another game forced to a Sunday night spot later in the season.

      Wanted to jump into this thread. Although I do not post anymore I do look in as there are a few old friends around. Loved hearing some of the names you mentioned.  Another  oldie is NanceUSMC.  He is the one who got me here from the old Observer forum.  Good guy and smart football guy. I have learned a lot from a lot of good Huddlers over the years, Over time. we have sadly lost a few who left this earth too soon.  Anyone who know of someone, it would be nice to try to make a list.  One of the more recent, CosmoGirl,  was someone that kind of hit hard.  Life sucks sometimes. Some of the best times were when we had our own tailgate and could meet up in person.  I think it made us better. Several dedicated volunteers, lead by LiverMush, started setting things up in the wee hours of each gameday morning.  Don't know all those regulars but I remember JakeFlake was one.  For you newbies...each game,  a Huddler (or a group) sponsored the food for each tailgate.  Eating was free but a donation was asked for.  At the end of the year those donations were used to buy bicycles for Toys for Tots.  Over the years Huddlers bought a lot of new bikes for kids for Christmas.  (I am guessing a couple of hundred each year.)  We had a good time getting together, got to make friends in person, and then got to feel like you were doing something good. It was truly a community. I got to meet Dan Morgan at one of our tailgates...he brought pizza from his restaurant.  How many of you remember that?  Glad the restaurant did not make it....lol. Not only have people changed, and come and gone.....but the entire nature and purpose has changed. Nothing lasts forever and we move on but we still like to think about good times. Same reason we take pictures. Want to ask a question I have not seen anyone else mention......who remembers    "The Couch" ?  We have argued, laughed, lived the ups and downs of football and dealt with a little real life along the way.  A thanks to  the Mods who keep this going.  I am sure they sacrifice a lot of their time out of love for the forum and the Panthers. Take care my friends and be well.  I will close with my new favorite quote which I think is greatly needed in these difficult times.
