And here's where we get tricky...

There's been some chatter before that Rivera is too paranoid to hire anybody who has the potential to replace him unless he's already friends with them and trusts that they won't try to supplant him.

Valid? Don't know, but I suppose you could make a case.

Wouldn’t Norv fit into this category?

No, because Norv A) is a trusted friend, and B) was threatened with bodily harm by his wife if he ever took another head coaching job.

By his own statements, Turner wasn't looking to be a coach at all. He was comfortably retired unless "the right situation" presented itself.

If I'm being honest, I think as much as anything Norv is coaching right now primarily to help Scott move up in the ranks.

True, but if he doesn't get one of those jobs I'd prefer him to Perry Fewell.

(and I'd prefer anybody to Richard Rodgers)

Fewell, Pagano, and potentially Wilkes if the Panthers are interested in bringing him back to where he had most of his success as an NFL coach.

Rivera's background is as a secondary coach. I expect that he's looking for somebody on the same page as him to help lighten the load of DC.

Rivera was a linebacker coach.

There was a press conference or an interview not too long ago where he mentioned his background in the secondary, though I might have misinterpreted when he said that his history was in the back 7 (it must have been related to Washington being demoted?)

Linebacking corps would be considered part of the back seven (or the front seven, depending on what you're talking about).

      Panthers need new fans

      By Moonraker · Posted

      In Philly it's called passion when the fans launch beer bottles and boo their team off the field on their way to a Superbowl. Here, it's fair-weather if you are ever dissatisfied. Two things can be true at once. Bryce has been underwhelming at an epic level if you look at the full scope of his career, and he also played lights out today. I'm excited to what they can bring to MNF vs the 49ers because that's going to be a BIG test for this team.

      Panthers need new fans

      If you want to ride or die with Bryce after one anomaly game good for you. His body of work is bad. Even bad QBs can have really good games. A backup QB we have on our roaster, White, threw for 400 yards as well and he is a practice squad player now.  Being a fan means you have every right to criticize the team you follow. Bryce played well today. But he has played well before and followed it up with continued crap play afterward.  We’ll see if he can have some consistency with the Niners. But one gold games doesn’t erase the fact is it week 11 and the other weeks he looked like crap.  No reason to keep a player on our roaster who will never be consistent and always started out the year playing like poo.

      Nothing Defines the Bryce Young Era Better Than that 4th Down Play

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      And that falls right in line with the several times he has chucked it away or grounded it on 4th downs in the past.  But, I guess that is Zavala’s fault too. The amount of passes he gets for inexcusable poo has been ridiculous.  Again, I have and will give him props when he has played well.  The most frustrating thing among many about him since he’s been here is him being so risk-averse that he refuses to give guys legitimate chances to make a play, even when that should be the only option (like 4th downs).  And yet, he creates mistakes that shouldn’t be possible on the most basic, conservative, run-of-the-mill plays -i.e., the interception to the sideline last week against NO, the Jessie Bates interception fest, the numerous fumbles on basic tackles or without even contact, etc.
