Ron may have had a reason for going "Riverboat" again

[Mr. Scot]

According to Joe Person in his latest Athletic article, last week's disastrous 49er game left Panthers owner David Tepper, quote, "livid".

From what I've seen of Tepper, I can imagine that seeing him blow his stack could probably be a little frightening, so I wouldn't really blame Rivera for having a little extra motivation today.

Person mentioned too that he got a "we'll see" response from Rivera when he asked about the possibility of putting Newton on IR.

Also regarding that quarterback question, there's this from Tre Boston...

“We love Kyle Allen. We love Cam Newton. Whoever’s there for us, we know we’re gonna get the job done,” said safety Tre Boston, who had his first INT of the season Sunday. “It’s amazing to have two great quarterbacks. When we go out there, play Tennessee and not worry about our quarterback situation. When next week we can go to the Packers and not care who’s at quarterback.”

Glad to hear Tepper wasn't lukewarm about the horrible loss last week. Regardless of how the qb situation shakes out, it's reassuring to hear we have an owner who isn't going to consider the status quo acceptable if the status quo looks like dog poo.

[Mr. Scot]

I imagine it looked something like this.

Neither can I.

Tepper had every reason to be angry---coming off a bye, no adjustments, just standing there with his arms folded with that "I have no clue" look on his face....made me mad.

Basically, Ron counts on some stud to carry him.  They shut down Cam, Ron lost the game.  Shut down CMC, Ron loses.

From what I've read, the "Riverboat" call for the fake punt didn't come from the sidelines. It was an audible by Collin Jones himself. 

I'm sure seeing Tepper livid was not a great feeling for Ron. I'd just caution connecting it to the fourth down call.

Say what you want about Bellicheat, and for my part I will say plenty. The man doesn't rely on his star qb to win for him. He goes out there and cheats his way to victory any way he can. 

*mumbles*

Also sometimes he's just better at tactics than the other guy

Mother@#%er it hurt to have to say that!

Is this real? Colin Jones is granted this sort of trust?

Rivera may give Tepper more opportunities to be livid. Plenty of games similar in magnitude as the 49ers game coming up.

It would seem so. Given that to the best of my knowledge he's never used it til now, and the one time he did he converted, I'm comfortable with it.

I didn't really like Wall-E that much.

Unless we're in desperate need if that roster spot, it only makes sense to keep the option of Cam returning on the table.

We still have an open roster spot that we seem to be in no hurry to fill.

I can't remember if it was Person or Rodrigue, but one of them said the Panthers are just "waiting for the right fit" or until they have a need.

I want a divorce and I want half your stuff.

You can keep the dog.

Never liked that dog.

Farts too much.
