So for the folks who insist that Ron Rivera is not deflecting blame for the team's recent losses, I'm afraid our old buddy Jon Beason disagrees with you.

Speaking on WFNZ with Nick Wilson and Josh Parcell, Beason mentioned the progression of Rivera's recent explanations.

Specifically, last week it was a coordinator problem, so Rivera demoted the coordinator.

This week, despite the coordinator change, the same result. So what does Rivera do?

He talks about their being "holes in the roster" that they need to fix.

Oy...

Beason also mentioned that he's been in a leader's position before, and that as a leader his first action after a loss was always to take the blame on himself, something Rivera doesn't seem to be doing.

So do you disagree with Beason as well?

Beason also recognizes that Rivera could be out of a job, contrary to what Steve Smith speculated.

Side Note: The WFNZ guys mentioned that Rivera is moving his press conference tomorrow from its usual 11am time to a little after 8am. They speculated it might be a way to get fewer media folks to show up.

Big Beas is one of my all time faves, love this dude. He’s right BTW. How many coaches would let the play clock run out on that fg? None, they would be running up the sideline screaming time out. Did RR, nah... how many coaches would blame players and coordinators before blaming themselves? Not many, except RR would. Every year it’s horrible timeouts, horrible challenge/non challenges, horrible game mgt and game flow, awful personnel choices and worst of all, he said he’d take a shot at our franchise qb too. He said that hours after our qb got his head destroyed and still got the 2 pt. Yes he should not have slowed up, but you don’t say that about your qb, especially after all he’s done for his stupid ass. I have had enough, he should have been gone in 2014, heck how many games did we almost blow in 2015 bc of his game mgt? Enough is enough.

When things are going well, sometimes you take getting thrown under the bus. As the saying goes, winning solves everything. But start piling up losses while your leader continually refuses to acvept any responsibility and deflects all blame back toward you and at some point it occurs to you... "Man... fug that guy."

Was a fun coincidence, but ESPN ran a segment on Andy Reid's coaching tree yesterday during their pregame.  Harbaugh, Bowles, Rivera, Pedersen, etc. there speaking on him.

One part of the segment dealt with Reid always blaming himself for losses, how a HC should, etc., and then showed various clips of his coaching tree coaches doing the same.  Noticeably absent from the clips was Rivera.

      Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.

      I wake up this morning full of rage towards Ronald McDonald Rivera / Gettleman / Hurney

      I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us.

      From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
