In nine years he's had two losing seasons and only missed the playoffs twice. I'd literally carry Pete Carroll piggyback style across the country from Seattle to Charlotte to get him to Carolina.

How much of that is on the strength of one amazing draft, though?

Most of that amazing draft is gone now and despite a pathwork OL and injury issues they still went 10-6 and made the playoffs. That's the difference between a Pete Carroll and a Ron Rivera. We have to catch every break we can to have a winning record under Rivera.

I think that's Russ to be honest.

Dude can play football, doesn't miss games, although he does have an expensive contract.

There's a scene in Major League (just before they bring out Wild Thing) where the veteran pitcher says "I'm throwin' every piece of junk I can at 'em, Skipper".

That line always reminds me of Russell Wilson.

I just think at this point, it's just the way he plays.

Seems like TONS of luck involved in his passing plays, but after this many years?  It's not luck, it's just a knack I think.

He's a damn good QB, but there's a lot of more to it than that. A QB alone doesn't get you 7/9 winning seasons and 7/9 playoff appearances. Ghe Packrfs had back to back losing seasons missing the playoffs with Aaron Rodgers.

The folks in Seattle will never forgive Pete for calling that timeout followed up by a pass play from the 1 yd line in the Super Bowl.  

That was admittedly a spectacular blunder and reeked of an arrogant attempt at shifting the offensive star off of Lynch and onto Wilson.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      Canes vs Rags 7pm

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
