Panthers should keep Ron Rivera as HC

Payton has lucked out recently with an incredible draft and having Brees as his QB and they still won’t win it all again. McCarthy is a better example and Payton will wind up just like him as will Rivera. None are great head coaches.

Lol....Sean payton is a superbowl champion head coach because of making one of the gutsiest calls in superbowl history. I have said on here before, there is plenty to dislike about that guy but rivera is not on his level.

Cam and Ron couldn't be further from a package deal. They're linked by having the same first season and that's all

Seriously, i will never understand that logic back in 2011. We drafted Cam and proceeded to go defense pretty much the next 3 years. Got rid of all our good offensive players or either they retired. You just don't see that around league, when most to KNOW they have a franchise QB he becomes first priority. If ron rivera is a good defensive mind as he thinks he should have been able to work with less and make something out of it, defense has only been good when we were stacked with talent.

this is the NFL.  it is a fairly limited pool of folks to choose from.  So limited that people frankly, fire coaches and make reaches because the pool is often so weak in terms of candidates for HC.   

I mean regardless of what you or I do for a living....there are COUNTLESS qualified people that likely could do our jobs.  Pool is simply big.  Simply isn't the case in the NFL. 

Ron's track record is simply in the upper tier of NFL coaches.  so yeah, I don't jump at the change for the sake of change mantra.   Lot of fan bases would LOVE to have Ron.   Lot of fanbases wish they could see a fraction of the success Ron has had here. 

How many other teams will be looking to hire? All that matters. 

Unless the team quits on Ron.  I'd rather fix the obvious issues with this team than get a new HC going into next year.  I'm also not ready to move on from Cam yet.  As I have said, Cam and Ron are a package deal IMO.  Doesn't mean Cam goes when Ron goes.  But that will be the beginning of the end more likely than not based on NFL history. 

 

 

How? There's plenty of coaches that can be interviewed for this position. 

Whether its our jobs or sports entertainment, you coming in don't mean you'll be good for whoever you hired. We just hired a good qualified person, but he don't do work and the rest of my team is already picking up on it

I'm not sure what success you're referencing, we made the playoffs 3 times in 8 seasons under ron. One of those years was because the NFCS was so terrible that automatically winning the division get you in. So please explain what success has Ron had over Fox? And what happened to Fox? Fox however did go to a second NFCCG

Won't happen because I'll never believe any Panther coach was worse than GS.

They’re both detached from their jobs and the head engineers of epic collapses, so I fail to see much of a difference. Historically they’re dissimilar, but 2001 Seifert and 2018 Rivera are close to being twins.

Not even close. The Seifert led team in 2001 had the 30th ranked offense and 31st ranked defense out of 31 teams. The only reason we didn't get the 1st overall pick was the Browns.

Texans. 

We have the 32nd-ranked defense the second half of this season and we haven’t eclipsed 30 points in 6 weeks

    • I went to Canes games back in '04 & '05 when you were probably still a swimmer waiting to make your dad a father. There was no one there bc they sucked. Some of the lowest attendance in the NHL. As a Panthers fan coming off a SB season (03-04), I couldn't even believe they put a hockey team in Raleigh, and given the attendance, a lot of people speculated they would be relocated somewhere back up north where they would be supported and not "Mayberry." Seriously, educate youself.  That is reality. That being said, comparing that environment to 2024 Canes would be disingenuous. I was at PNC last year and know how great the current environment is. Comparing the current environment at BOA to 10 years ago is just as disingenuous.  Just bc you didn't witness how good BOA is when the Panthers are actually decent doesn't change reality. Seriously, surely you see that coming from such an elitist environment like the globally renowned world-class city of Raleigh, NC... I guarantee you if you went to a Canes game and a Panthers game in 2005, the difference would be unreal bc the Panthers were awesome and the Canes were (at the time) a moribund franchise. I have been in BOA when the whole stadium was rocking. You simply are young, don't know what you're talking about, but want to portray yourself as having knowledge about things you simply don't. You have a lot in common with modern day politicians and televangelists Like I said, Idiocracy has prevailed... Have a great day too! 
    • Let it all out bro.   At the end of the day Charlotte fans just aren't that passionate as other fans. The Panthers and Hornets crowds are wack.    Go to a Canes game and you will understand this. Tell the family I said hi and Happy Father's Day.
    • Dude you have no idea what you're talking about. Best place to live?  LMAO... that's your criteria...  Charlotte gets put all over those lists too... come on man... and those lists have zero to do with sports. I'm done after this bc I'm punching down intellectually here... The Panthers have been bad for 6 years now. You are obviously young and not overly educated based off the "dunks" you're putting out there that certainly are, so let me educate you today on the Panthers. The Panthers sold out for well over a decade straight. BOA has been as good an environment as there is when the team is good.  Fan support for the Panthers has been incredible when the team has even remotely reciprocated. The idea that Charlotte doesn't support the Panthers is utter BS. People in Raleigh have the biggest little brother syndrome of all time... Nobody outside of the Triangle cares about any of your "vaunted" sports team outside of Duke-UNC in basketball on a national scale. Sure, the Canes are great. But nationally, the WWE dwarfs the NHL in ratings. More people care about Cody Rhodes than Sebastian Aho... or anyone else in the NHL for that matter... I doubt less than 5% of anyone in this state outside of Raleigh even knows who that is... that's a knock on Aho who is a great player, it's just the NHL barely makes a ripple in the overall hierarchy of American sports. It's not in the same universe as the NFL or NBA no matter how badly you want to tell yourself otherwise. Raleigh is not a big-time sports city, no matter how much you want to scream into the abyss about it. Neither is Charlotte. But no one here is making such a nonsense argument... LOL it's good to be young and to be ignorant enough to be confidently wrong... WTF are you even on this board though since Charlotte is so beneath you? There is an actual discussion board on this very site for Raleigh sports since they are so superior...  Maybe it's bc I'm watching Idiocracy with my son, but your timing is perfect, my man... The dumbest among us have become the most confidence in their ignorance... God Bless America!!
