IF we do fire Rivera, this definitely seems the year to do it.

So I was looking at teams across the league, and it looks as though only a handful of teams will be firing head coaches this year, unlike years past where several to sometimes 8 or 9 teams had HC positions open, this year I count a few.

Here are the teams I see firing their head coach.

Giants

Falcons

Lions

Chargers

There might be one or two other ones but my point is, a lot less coaching openings means we would have a wider net of candidates so to speak, not only that but besides the Falcons, we might be the most attractive landing spot.

Firing of a coach is not based on how things are going through the league of the trend!!??its based on your own team and staff!! Rivera has had positive career over Fox.. I think he’s better than Fox cuz he was just as damn stubborn.. but it’s time to move on I think Ton knows it!! Trapper probably gave him record that has to be met.. I am sure that’s not been met unless we win out!! Do writing is on the wall!!

Other teams should have no bearing on if we fire our coach

I don’t think he was talking about other firings impacting whether we fire Rivera, but about how big the potential pool of candidates might be if we did. Personally I’m not in favor of hiring someone who just got canned, but that seems to be the way the NFL works a lot of times.

I don’t see Chargers or Lions getting rid of Lynn and Patricia. Anthony Lynn deserves to come back. Patricia suck but I think he’ll get another chance just because of his pedigree. And I really don’t think Quinn is the bad of a HC. If he can win 6-7 games I see him staying.

Ron is a great coach. All this talk about firing him is silly. I would extend Ron and give him a better QB. If Cam gave us more seasons similar to his MVP season (or close), Ron would have given us a SB already. Coaches ride the forms of their best QB. When you take out the cheating Pats coach, Ron is right there with the best of them: Mike Tomlin, Jim Harbaugh(rode Flacco's insane year to a SB), Pete Carol (rode 2 crazy years of the LOB).

    • We could quibble about was that an answer to what I asked but I  don’t see it as being one. Look, he agreed to this Evero thing. Up front. Apparently anyway. Took the job with those conditions in place. I buy that and will work off of it.  This play calling issue isn’t the same thing. I am not in the mood to delve into Canales’ shortcomings and get out the pitchforks at the moment. I will abstain from that topic and stick to the quandary the dissenters who want to usurp his play calling power, find themselves in. As far as that goes I am still on the fence and think the play calling is Bryce centric and the play selection/playbook is affected. That does not mean I know that if the playbook was open he would be great play caller. Just that he is hampered right now.  Inserting an OC not of Canales’ approval changes the original parameters of the assumed agreement.  Unless you think Tepper placed a contractual prescription to allow Tepper to dictate that he can insert a play caller of his choosing after a time period if he is not satisfied with Canales’ work.  Which, do you really think that is in play?  I do not.    Unless it is, Canales has the option to yea or nay. As I said, it could be forced on him. But they only do that if they want him out.  And as of now his stock is up, I would have to say I don’t own any but I think it is up. He had the stadium rocking, the team in the playoffs, and has that sorry lil draft pick trending upward. Even at this very low rate.  I think he has ‘hand’ right now as they say on Seinfeld. This is something that may get play in the 2026 season, not now. IMO.     
    • Canes now have 19 losses on the year. Here is the truly alarming stat. 13 of those were multiple goal loses. 9 of those were 3 goal plus losses. This team is getting blown out more than any other year under Rod.     why?  Blue line is a total mess. It’s just no good with their combinations.  It pains me to say this, but they were mikes better with Burns and Orlov. They need Slavin so bad.  Health.  Size. The team is too small and has no physical play. Most forwards do not forecheck.  Worst under Rod.  Goalie play. Pretty average to sub par. PK is downright bad. It’s allowing a little over a goal a game. Worst under Rod.    Team will not win a playoff round under its current group of players. It’s not constructed to do so against heavy teams.      solutions.  Must get physical size by the trade deadline. Rod and Tulsky know this. That probably has to come with the 2C.  KKs size but a better scorer and meaner.  The need another physical winger.  Goalie. Either go all in on a top guy on a bad team or get average. Lastly, better defense. Need a Right shot heavy defenseman.  Yes that could mean someone’s favorite dman could sit. Looking at you Boom.    thats 3-4 new guys that must be brought in for them to have a chance at a cup.  And it’s all players that are different and better than what they have.  They have the cap. KK is gone. Add 4 mill back.    And then hope it’s jells unlike Mikko.
